brooklyn was born november 7, 2000 and recieved her wings december 23 2005. it was two days before
christmas and i got a call the 22 nd from a cop and that our name was picked for a toy drive ,so i
took the car seats out of the car so i would have room for toys .then the next day she had to go to
preschool and it was the last day before break. i was running late so i left without putting car
seats in the car thinkin it would be ok this once and about 10 mins later i hit a sheet of black ice
and that day my life ended . now all i can do is preach to others about buckling up in her memory so
others don't have to go threw what i did. i wish for once i could go back in time because i
would of never left. i miss her so much, the day she passed i passed with her because the pain hurts
, i have dreams of her alive then i wake up and shes not there. So please buckle up for her.
i am so sorry for your loss. my best friend blames herself everyday for her daughters death but in reality there was nothing any of you could have done. we've all made mistake and taken chances with our children and got away with it. this must have just been her day to become an angel xxxxxxxxxxxx
no guilt
i am so so sorry for your loss. we have all done something we should have not done concerning our children. but it happens and my heart goes out to u. xxx
Such a sad story
This story is truly heartbreaking, and as a mother of two boys i can't even comprehend the pain and emotions you are going through. I can't count the amount of times, i have placed my children in the car without the car seats, you never would think that such a tragedy could ever happen. Were only going round the shops or to a friends all mums have done it , unfortunatly the worst consequences you had to endure and you will punishyourself for that the rest of your life. But as hard as it is, you can't blame yourself for the loss of your beautiful daughter. As a mother, when you put her in the car, you believed in your own mind, she wasn't in any direct danger so that is enough to direct that blame from yourself. You paid the ultimate price when she left you so you are doing your time. The hardest thing is what if and but if i, try not to let these unanswered questions eat away at you. As a believer in fate, i truly believe we all have a set time of when we leave here and she was obviousl needed for a special job in heaven so thats why she had to leave. She is probably looking down from heaven telling you to not be sad and that she isn't mad with you and that it's not your fault. You and your angel are forever in my thoughts and i hope over time your pain fades. God bless.
Ask My Mum How She Is
================
My Mum she tells a lot of lies,
She never did before,
But from now until she dies,
She'll tell a whole lot more.
Ask my Mum how she is,
And because she can't explain,
She will tell a little lie,
Because she can't describe the pain.
Ask my Mum How she is,
She'll say 'I'm alright'
If that's the truth, then tell me,
Why does she cry each night?
Ask my Mum how she is,
She seems to cope so well,
She didn't have a choice you see,
Nor the strength to yell.
Ask my Mum how she is,
'I'm fine, I'm well, I'm coping'
For God's sake Mum, just tell the truth,
Just say your heart is broken.
She'll love me all her life,
I loved her all of mine,
But if you ask her how she is,
She'll lie and say she's fine.
I am here in Heaven,
I cannot hug from here,
If she lies to you don't listen,
Hug her and hold her near.
On the day we meet again,
We'll smile and I'll be bold,
I'll say 'You're lucky to get in here, Mum,
With all the lies you told!'
You are in my prayers
I know you must feel so guilty we all feel some guilt when we lose one of our loved ones but you must not feel this guilt we have all made mistakes in our life and have been lucky,Brook is with the angels and i am sure she will help you, and your fight to belt up is a good one,god bless you and i will keep you in my prayers,hugs Sylvia
thinking of you......
I am so sorry for your loss and the tragic circumstances surrounding the passing of your beautiful little girl. Don't punish yourself, we all do things which we later reflect on.... hindsight is a wonderful thing, if only we could all have that advantage..... Take care and remember all the love and beautiful memories your daughter brought into your life xx
sorry
I know words are cheap right now and I know the pain you are going through, I lost my son Jack and husband back in 2004 in a car accident, I know it hurts so bad now and i know u feel like the pain will destroy you but if need anyone I am here and i know how hard it is for you right now.
