Daisy Mai Whittall was born 26th March 2006 (Mothers Day). At 5 weeks old she got a chest
infection,within the next few weeks she wasnt feeding properly and couldn't cry very well unless you
were sat in the same room you wouldn't of been able to hear her.
I took her to Blackpool Victoria Hospital where they xrayed her chest, we were told her heart was
very large they were refering her to Alderhey (Liverpool) the next morning, we felt sick with worry.
When we arrived they were all waiting for her with all the big machines to look at her heart, it
wasn't good I was told she had the one heart condition no one wanted as there was no operation to
put it right. Dilated Cardiomyopathy (left heart failier) Daisy Mai would have to be on medication I
was told she would either be able to live life on them but would not be able to do things a healthy
child would as she would become tired easily, or it could become so bad she would need a transplant
which would not be a cure for her and the chance of a child doner was very slim, the other thing
they told us was that it caused sudden death and she could go without any warning.
I couldn't believe it I was on my own been told all of this, it was to much to take in Daisy Mai's
dad was at home sorting our three other children I couldn't tell him over the phone, he came as soon
he could the doctor went through it again he broke down. The doctor arranged for a counciler to come
and see us, all we could think about was loosing our little girl how would we cope without her what
would it do to her brother and sisters. There was no improvement she stopped feeding, I had to learn
to tube feed her, she was in and out hospital with chest infections each one worse than the last.
At 5 months old we went to Great Ormand Street we were told her heart was so large we would be
lucky if she made it to her first birthday, it would be a week till we found out if they would put
her on the transplant list. When were told she was on the list everyone one was pleased I just felt
scared, sick the things that could go wrong, she might not survive it.
Two weeks later she was rushed into hospital she couldn't breath properly and was going blue. Daisy
was ventalated straight away it wasn't straight forward they told us she might not make it, her
viens had collapsed which made things more difficult. When we got to Alder hey she was taken to ICU,
when me and her dad got there it was a shock seeing all the machines.
The next day she had to have an opperation to have a Broviac line fitted into her neck for her
medication they said she arrested but they managed to bring her back the surgen said she was a tough
little cookie. Daisy Mai's left lung had been crushed due to the size of her heart. It is so hard
seeing your baby so helpless not being able to hold her, we got our first cuddle after 2 weeks I let
daddy go first as it was his birthday it was very emotional I had to hold back the tears.
A few days later she was moved to HDU there was still no news of a heart Daisy Mai was on the top
of the list in all of Europe, it was so unfair that for my little girl to have a chance someone else
had to loose there child.
Two weeks later 22nd October at 5am the phone rang in our room the nurse said she wasn't good I ran
over as fast as I could, there were so many people around her they asked me to go to the parents
room they had sent for her dad the other children who had come to stay with us, as soon as the nurse
said that I knew what had happend but they wern't saying anything. When her dad and children came
the doctors came to tell us, it was the the worst thing ever. Daisy Mai was gone this would be the
last time I would ever hold my beautiful angel.
There are so many emotions you go through every day you feel different. Everyone said the funeral
was lovely we played Fly by Celine Dion and You are my sunshine sung by children everyone had a pink
balloon to release once the service was over.
There isn't a minute goes by we don't think of her. Daisy Mai had such a short life she knows how
much we love her, she left a big impact on our lives and everyone that knew her, she has made us so
much stronger .
We miss you so much princess love you always xxx Mummy Daddy Mia Aaron Tilly and your new baby
brother Thomas
FLY (Celine Dion) played at Daisy's funeral
Fly Fly little wing
Fly beyond imagining
The softest cloud,the whitest Dove
Upon the wind of heavens love
Past the planets and the stars
Leave this lonely world of ours
Escape the sorrow and the pain
And fly again
Fly Fly precious one
Your endless journey has begun
Take your gentle happiness
Far too beautiful for this
Cross over to the other shore
There is peace forever more
But hold this memory bitter sweet
Until we meet
Fly Fly do not fear
Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear
Your heart is pure your soul is free
Be on your way, don't wait for me
Above the universe you'll climb
On beyond the hands of time
The moon will rise' the sun will set
But I wont forget
Fly Fly little wing
Fly where only Angels sing
Fly away the time is right
Go now, find the light.
Thankyou to everyone that lights a candle or leaves a message for our beautiful girl. It means a lot

Tributes for this weekend
FOR FRIDAY
I MISSED YOU
I woke up this morning
.....and I missed you
I got out of bed
.....and I missed you
I got myself washed
.....and I missed you
I got myself dressed
.....and I missed you
I came downstairs
.....and I missed you
I've only been awake a few minutes
And already I've missed you so much.
To those who've never lost a child,
Does that not make you understand?
Does that not make you see?
Just what my life is like now
How everyday is for me.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR SATURDAY
REMEMBER THE GOOD TIMES
Remember the good times
Don’t ever feel sad
Remember the pleasure
And love that I had
Remember the laughter
And all that we shared
Remember with pride
For I know that you cared
And blame yourselves not
For what I did not see
My life had everything
You gave much to me
With love in our hearts
The memories will stay
Remember I'm only
A whisper away............
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR SUNDAY
♥♥ With Love ♥♥
They say that life is fleeting
I know that this is true
I left this world so quickly
With no goodbye to you.
I know how much you miss me
Your tears fall ever light
The pillow where you lay your head
Is wet with them at night.
I know your heart is hurting
The words we left, unsaid
I love you left unspoken
Are spinning in your head.
The strength that I have carried
That served to make you whole
Remains to make you stronger
Within your grieving soul.
For you see, while you were weeping
On the day I passed away
At the gravesite near the flowers
Where my loved ones knelt to pray.
An angel came to see me
She took me by the hand
She led me to a kingdom
In a very distant land.
As I look down from the heaven
And see you standing there
Your heart so ever burdened
With more weight than it can bear.
I long to bring you comfort
I long to give you peace
I long to hold you closely
Cause all your tears to cease.
The joy I've found in heaven
Goes far beyond compare
The love that's so elusive
Can be found here everywhere.
The light is softly shining
There's no storm clouds here or rain
There's no teardrops found in heaven
There's no suffering, there's no pain.
You needn't be so troubled
Stay close to God and pray
That someday we'll be together
One bright and glorious day.
So my love, you shouldn't question
My dear you need not cry
I've gone to be with Jesus
I really didn't die.

My Life changed, the very moment I found out
That you had passed away.
I couldn't stop it; there was nothing I could say.
You've touched my life so deeply to a point you will never know,
I try to think about you when I am feeling down and low.
Sometimes when my day gets hard
I will think about your beautiful smile
and if I listen hard enough I will hear your voice after a while.
It's you who give me a reason to go on with my day,
and now if I want to see you I'll bow my head and pray.
I catch myself looking for you still,
In the halls and at your front door,
but when I call your name there is no reply any more!
I never thought a day would come where we would be apart,
God has you in his keepings, we have you in our hearts.
Life will go on, but never will be the same,
your beautiful smile is gone, but it will always remain.
You're our angel from up above.
You'll always be missed, but most importantly... loved.
Just one more minute, God, is all I ask- why can't you give them back;
it seems like such a simple task.
I guess people are right when they say God only takes the best,
I know enough now that you're peacefully at rest.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR MONDAY
Your presence I miss,
Your memory I treasure,
Loving you always,
Forgetting you never.
FOR TUESDAY
I sit and wonder every day,
Why the Lord chose to call you away,
I think He saw you needed rest,
He only takes the very best.
FOR WEDNESDAY
Everyday in some small way,
Memories of you come our way,
Though absent, you are always near,
Still missed, loved, always dear.
FOR THURSDAY
Resting where no shadows fall,
In peaceful sleep he awaits us all;
God will link the broken chain,
When one by one we meet again.

Tributes For This Weekend
FOR FRIDAY 7th August
~Pennies Come From Heaven~
Found a penny today
Laying on the ground
But its not just a penny
This little coin I found
Pennies come from heaven
That's what my Mum told me
She said angels toss them down
Oh, how I loved this story
She said when an Angel misses you
They toss a penny down
Sometimes just to cheer you up
To make a smile out of a frown
So, don't pass by that penny
When you're feeling blue
It may be a penny from Heaven
That your loved ones have tossed to you
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR SATURDAY
~God's Garden~
God looked around his garden
And He found an empty place.
He then looked down upon this earth,
And saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering
He knew you were in pain
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again
He saw that the road was getting rough,
And the hills are hard to climb.
So He closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered "Peace be thine."
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR SUNDAY
~When Tomorrow Starts Without Me~
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 my 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 a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realised
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.
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right there, in your heart.

I’d like the memory of me
To be a happy one.
I’d like to leave an after glow
Of smiles when life is done.
I’d like to leave an echo
Whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times
And bright and sunny days.
I’d like the tears of those who grieve,
To dry before the sun
Of happy memories
That I leave when life is done.
Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there, I did not die.

A Bouquet of beautiful memories,
Sprayed with a million tears,
Wishing God could have spared you,
If just for a few more years.
We love you, we miss you and
We are proud to keep your dream and vision alive.
One Day at a Time
You lived your life one day at a time.
The words you shared were always kind.
You loved us all with your whole heart.
It saddens us to be apart, and forever we
hold you in our hearts
Today you stand in God's bright light.
Watching over us day and night.
In our hearts you will remain
Until the day we meet again...
Forever Your love will live on in our hearts
and the hearts of those you touched.
We are so grateful to God for blessing our lives with
the beautiful gift of you.
We miss you sweet angel,
more than you can imagine.
