my mum was born in lancashire,where she was to grow up into a beautiful:lancashire lass.
her parents then decided to move to cheshire,where she was to meet my lovely father,at the age of 18,it was true love at first sight.
they eventually married & had two children,my big sister delia & myself martin.delia is now looking so much like mum used too.i have been told i have mums eyes.
my mum started to suffer with ill health.she was diagnosed with rhumatoid arthritis,she suffered unimaginable pain.this dreadful disease stole her looks and dignity bit by bit.
when i was 15 i left school to become her main and only carer,as the years passed by my mum deteriarated,losing so much weight and every bone in her body was very painful.you only had to tap her and she was in excrutiating pain,inside my heart was being ripped apart as i could only watch my mum suffer in pain.the pain relief from her tablets were always short lived.
there was nothing anyone could do for her,she had been seen by countless doctors.
my sister took over after 5rs of me looking after mum.
the day i took the phone call at work from my sister.i just dropped the receiver and sobbed.the bottom had been ripped out of my world.the only things that kept me going were.
the love and support of our very close family,we were destroyed as a family unit.my dad my sister and me have become so close now.
the other thing that kept me going was.no matter how sad i was at losing my dear and very precious mother,i knew in my heart she was free of pain finally.
god bless you mum,i miss you with every breath i take.i love you with every inch of my heart.
you are......................
THE ROSE OF OUR HEARTS
AND
THE WIND BENEATH OUR WINGS.
may you R.I.P. MUM

Letter From Heaven
When tomorrow starts without me,
and I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes,
all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry,
the way you did today,
while thinking of the many things,
we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you,
and each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
please try to understand,
that an Angel came and called my name,
and took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready,
in heaven far above,
and that I'd have to leave behind,
all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
a tear fell from my eye,
for all life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
so much yet to do,
it seemed almost impossible,
that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
just even for awhile,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
that this could never be,
for emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
from His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
and all I've promised you".
Today for life on earth is past,
but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
but today will always last,
and since each day's the same day,
there's no longing for the past.
But you have been so faithful,
so trusting and so true.
Though there were times you did some things,
you knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven
and now at last you're free.
So won't you take my hand
and share my life with me?
So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.

Dry your Tears...
You can shed tears that she is gone or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she’ll come back or you can open your eyes and see all she’s left,
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her or you can be full of the love you shared,
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday,
You can remember her and only that she’s gone or you can cherish her memory and let it live on,
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back, or you can do what she’d want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
My Dear Daer Martin
In my Rose Garden of memories
I see you standing there
An angel in disguise
Who taught me how to care
I long to hear your voice
for real not in my dreams
I am missing you so much these days
how empty my world seems
People say time heals all wounds
that someday the pain will subside
But Grandma I can tell you
I think they musr have lied
The emptiness I am feeling now
is strong and I am weak
These days go by without you
so deary and so bleak
In my Rose Garden of memories
I know you'll always be
for though your're gone
from this mortal world
In my heart you'll always be
Mother\'s...
You only have one Mother
So patient kind and true
No other friend in all the world
Will be the same as you
When other friends forsake you
To her you can return
For all her loving kindness
She asks nothing in return
As we look upon her picture
Sweet memories we recall
Of a face so full of sunshine
And a smile for one and all
Her life was love and labour
Her love for the family - True
She did her best for everyone
And now says:-
God Bless you!
Irene...such a special lady.
Your son Martin...so special too.
Remember...there are no goodbyes for us for you are forever in our Hearts.
God bless you. xxxxxxxxx
special days
we lost our dear and very precious mum in 1988...this is her 20th anniversary of her passing.........29TH january 1988 WE LOST YOU FOR EVER.......
20 years is a very long time,but on days that you remember it becomes like yesterday and the pain is some times so hard to deal with....
you hear a song that your mum liked,and it stops you in your tracks,and the tears flow down your cheeks uncontrollably........
a certain restaurant that your mum likes...and again the tears are visable.......
a birthday,you can not spoil them...you have to buy flowers to put on the grave,the tears are flowing again............
christmas time when it should be times of laughter are turned into times of sadness and upset....
mothering sunday,you want to take your mum out and spoil her,you can't..it is so damned hard with out her.....
i have spent many an evening looking at pictures of my mum,and i just sit and cry......i do have some fantastic memories and i try to remember them,but sometimes the pain of losing my mum over rides the happy times and i find myself crying yet again......
why is life so cruel..............i do wish i could turn back the clocks and have you back mum.....
I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART....BODY AND........SOUL......
i miss the fun times we had together,you are always in my thoughts and always will be.....
I HOPE NOW YOU ARE IN HEAVEN YOU ARE SAFE WELL AND OUT OF ALL THAT PAIN....
i shall keep the home fire burning,so it shows you a light then you can find your way home...
