my darling boy callum was the second youngest of three. He was my only son, the son me and his father (jarred) waited for, fro a long time after his big sister jade (19) was born.
me and jarred found it hard to concieve after jade was born, we were desperate for a son so jade could have a little brother, 14 years trying to concieve and eventually we had done it, i gave birth to callum which we thought was healthy, but the midwife took him and whisked him away, i started to scream for my baby. a few minutes later the midwife came back but not with callum.
she put my mind at ease just a little bit when she told me he was just getting checked over, another doctor brought call back to me and his daddy and told us heartbreaking news call had downs syndrome, but my little boy was still perfect.
a year and a half went by, me, jarred and jade now 16 nearly 17. giving call an ordinary life as much as we could when i found out i was pregnant, but i started asking my self questions like how could i get pregnant easily after 14 years of trying to concieve before anything happened.
me and jarred had all tests possible having to make sure that this baby was healthy. in the august i gave birth to a little sister lauren for jade and call. call doted on her, loved her to bits. the doctors told us to watch call around lauren, but we didnt have to if she cried he would come running shouting ' baby cwying ' or when she was asleep if we spoke he would go shhhhh baby sleep.
when lauren was a toddler we decided to take a holiday to butlins for call and laurens birthdays. calls 4th birthday came and he was excited for his holiday 3 weeks later. but two weeks before the holiday call seemed to be restless and tired. if didnt seem to be interested in what was going on around him.
me and jarred rushed him to hospital where is consultant told us devastating news, call didnt have long left. it broke jades heart and lauren was to young to understand what was going on.
on the day we were ment to be going to butlins call took his last breath in the arms of jade. friday 10th august.
call wanted jade to hold him as he went, the last thing he asked for was a hug of jade. as she gave him his hug he tok his last breath and passed away peacefully with his family around him.
love you always call. call you were mummy and daddys perfect little boy who got his life took from him too soon. have fun playing with the angels and keep a space for mummy, daddy, jade and lauren. miss you mor than anything little man. xxx

My Little Angel
I felt your presence there inside of me,
nestled soft and warm;
Sweet scent of baby's breath,
precious words left unadorned.
I saw your tiny heartbeat,
then I knew that you were fine;
A perfect baby we created,
one that would be mine.
Then that tragic day it came
there was nothing I could do,
Only wait and hope
for the precious life of you.
Yes in the beginning
your daddy was afraid;
Only he would love you unconditional
and never run away.
He loved you more this I do know,
as he cried for you that day,
When the doctor said that you were gone,
daddy wanted you to stay.
He would have held you close to him,
and see your perfect form,
A gift of daddy's love,
would have kept you safe and warm.
Only now you are an angel over me
beautiful and bare,
My heart would hurt if you cried for me
and mommy was not there.
Still we are together in my heart and memories,
You are still a part of my memory.
Rest gentle now 'sweet baby' there is no pain
you are never alone,
I know you are with the guiding angels
in you peaceful home.
I will come with you someday
only now is not my time,
Then we will be together again
again you will be mine.
i know how you feel
