carer for allied healthcare
senacre in maidstone
my mum was one of 4 , she had one sister who was her best friend and two brothers one who she is now with as he past away 2 years ago, she had 2 children robyn aged 20 and ajay age 18.

my mum battled cancer for just over a year , firstly she was diagnosed with cervical cancer in october 2006 and had treatment whcich worked and was given the all clear in march , in may 2007 she was diagnosed with bone cancer after finding a lump on her head. she was given kemo but only managed two courses opf this treatment as it made her soo weak. on the 12th of ocotber we were told that she had blood clots everywhere and there was nomore they could do for her, she passed away at home on the 18th with her sister theresa , her neice louise , her 2 children robyn and ajay , her best friend emma and her partner alan all there with her.

my mum was the best in the world! , she was soo loving and caring and even her job showed this as she was a carer for elderly people , she would have done anything for anybody , and had such a thirst for life , she was always coming out with funny little sayings and making everybody laugh.
i suppose the saying that god only takes the best is true because she really was the best , even in her last days she was thinking about everyone else and telling us that she was fine , n always making sure we were ok i think the hardest thing for her when she knew she was going was leaving all of us behind. i love her soo much n miss more than words can explain , she was just soo brilliant and i feel sorry for the people that never got to meet her.

xx miss you for ever mum xx






God saw you were getting tired,
and a cure was not to be.
So he put his arm around you
and whispered "" come with me""
with tearful eyes
we watched you suffer,
and saw you fade away.
Although we loved you deeply
we could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hardworking hands to rest.
God broke our hearts
to prove to us,
He only take the best.





They think I'm fine and over it.
By Lyndie Sorenson

They think I'm fine and over it
Accepted that you died
But I live life with all this pain
And countless tears I've cried

I am forced to live with endless pain
That others can't accept
They think I'm fine and over it
Or that I'll soon forget

I want to scream from rooftops
Or silently just cry
I never will be over it
My God my mum has died!

It makes no sense to argue
My energy is low
So when they think I'm over it
I simply tell them No

I've become what they have wanted
A turtle in it's shell
Just keep my thought within myself
And never ever tell

I mask my life to others
To myself as well
For living every day on Earth
Is surely more like Hell

Simply put I won't get over it
Not better...stronger... fine
It is only that I've had no choice...
To live this life of mine

My Dearest Mum

Mother you were the nicest, you were always there for me
You sung me nursery rhymes as you bounced me on your knee
You did everything that you could for me then left me on my own
The angels wanted you with them so they came and took you home
No one could ask more from their mum than what you did for me
Every day you gave me time, our closeness all could see
You cuddled and cherished me as a mother always does
Supported me in everything and often gave me a shove
You wiped my tears when I cried and laughed at all my ways
I reminded you of you when you were in your youthful days
I know I tried you with my moments as every child does
When life can get too much to bear in all the tear and rush
But you were there for me whenever I needed you
Sadly I never told you just how much I loved you too
And now it is too late, for your arms I can no longer feel
I should have told you when I could that my love for you was real.

If your sorrow can be lessened,
In some warm and special way,
By knowing that so many share,
In your loss with you today.

And if it brings you comfort,
When others show they care,
Please know that thoughts are with you,
And remember they are there.

Thinking of you Sandra and your family who love and miss you (Daniel Williamsons mum)
