Our Beloved Darling... Eve Serene... Sent from up above...
God said, "I will lend to you a child of mine, but just for a little while, to love, hold and cherish...She won't be yours for eternity, nor will she grow old with you, but the memories you have of her will be solace for your grief...She'll bring you joy, a joy so great, that nourishes your soul, and makes you whole..."
Mommy & Daddy love you so much and we're so very proud of you...We're separated only by the remaining time we have here on earth...Till we meet again...
God has lent to us a precious little soul to save mommy and daddy. At 16 weeks in my womb, doctors have informed us that she will have complications at birth. Just 2 days after she was born, she needed emergency surgery and thereafter, had 10 more multiple surgeries in order to survive.
She spent her entire 22 months of life in hospital, and only managed to come home for 5 short days in May 2008. She was on ventilator support and needed a room full of hospital equipment in order to have a home life.
And this year in september, Eve was so close to coming home again. Doctors came to our home and did a site inspection and all the equipment was prepared. But she fell ill, and was re-admitted to ICU on the very same day... She has always been a fighter and has always managed to pull through all the multiple surgeries to be with mommy and daddy....But sadly, the infections and 3 acute kidney failures she encountered during the last 3 weeks before the 16th of October proved too much for her frail and weak body to fight... This was Eve's final battle..
On 16th October 2009 at 2:30 am, amidst a horrid, stormy and windy early morning, Eve passed away in ICU without having mommy carrying her in her arms due to all the ventilator attachments and a vast crowd of tubes attached to her. Mommy & daddy could only afford to stand at her bedside and hold her hands. The moment she breathed her last, we removed by ourselves, ALL the attachments on her body to set her free from all the tubes that were in her throat, stomach and IV lines on her body. We only had that moment of 'Freedom' to carry her without any attachments from the day she was born.
With all the scars on her body and all the hardships that she had to endure, there was never a moment that she would fail to smile with all her heart to make mommy and daddy proud, even when she wass unwell... She is truly a blessed soul borrowed to us... She deserves a perfect and wonderful place in Heaven.... Free as a butterfly - Without pain and suffering... Hand in hand with our Father....
She has earned her rest...She truly has...

I looked toward the clouds today and for a moment saw your face
And wondered just where you have gone with the hope it's a peaceful place.
Did you show yourself to me today to tell me you're all right?
Or was it just a daydream playing tricks upon my sight?
Then I thought of when you left still too young to say a word.
Yet the look you gave us said it all, in our hearts, your good-bye was heard.
You have changed our lives forever your, short time here not in vain
and hope you know we tried it all to keep you safe from pain.
We will always feel the void inside because you are not here.
But each new thought you send our way let's us know you're always near.
So until our journey nears it's end and we hear the Angels sing.
We'll face each new day as it comes and live off the Love you bring.
Angels are hard to find
When God calls little children to dwell with him above
We mortals sometime question the wisdom of his love
For no heartache compares with,the death of one small child
Who does so much to make our world, seem wonderful and mild
perhaps God tires of calling the aged to his fold
So he picks a rosebud before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them, and so he takes but few
To make the land of heaven more beautiful to view
believing this is difficult, still somehow we must try.
The saddest word mankind knows will always be "Goodbye"
So when a child departs, we who are left behind
Must realize God loves children "Angels are hard to find"
Before This World Had Started - by Unknown Author
Before this world had started,
Before our lives began.
God assigned us all our challenges,
Some hard things to withstand.
Each of us were given,
Some difficult things to do.
But God gave his bravest warriors,
An extra burden too.
So you came to this earth in a body,
Broken and quite ill.
But life could never take from you,
A solid, determined will.
You kept your face turned toward the sunshine,
Trapped in a body that only knew rain,
And chose to see the joys in life,
In spite of all the pain.
And though your body was oft' connected,
To needles, machines and tubes.
You bravely faced each day with them,
While expressing gratitude.
For the chance of simply being here,
Though to us it didn't seem fair.
To see someone as special as you,
Suffer in a body beyond repair.
So when you'd honourably completed,
Every trial you were assigned.
God chose to bring you back to him,
Freeing your bright spirit and mind.
Little Angel - by Unknown Author
God sent an Angel to the Earth...
The sweetest Angel too
And for such a tiny little thing,
She had so much to do.
She knew she did not have
Much time upon this earth to stay,
So she did not waste a second;
She got started right away.
Her eyes were bright and sparkly,
She took in every turn.
She did not miss a single thing,
Because Angel came to learn!
God sent her here to touch the
Hearts of those he could not reach...
She taught them courage, strength and faith,
Because Angel came to teach.
Her tiny little body
Was so full of God above,
You felt it when you held her,
Because Eve came to love.
In a few short months she managed
What many never will.
When she went home to Jesus,
Her purpose was fulfilled.
She learned and taught, loved and played,
She learned his lessons well.
I know he was so proud of her
When she went home to dwell.
But when I miss her OH-SO-MUCH,
I can almost hear God say,
Please understand, her work was done...
Eve did not come to stay.
Seasons of Grief
Autumn
We that are in the fall of our grief
It is crisp, like the autumn wind
We watch grief fall upon us
Like the autumn leaves that falls to the ground
Our days grow longer
We experience the pain of loss
Winter
We that are in the winter of our grief
It is cold, and dark, and bleak
We wonder if we will ever feel warm again
Our days are short, and nights, lonely and long
We pray for warmth again
Spring
We that are in the spring of our grief
Our days grow brighter, and warm
We are amazed at the renewal of our souls
Our faith is like the new buds, and spring flowers
It waits to explode forth
To bring new color into our souls
Summer
We that are in the summer of our grief
We look in wonder at our renewal
It's like the new green grass
The leaves upon the trees
The sun shines down upon us
It brings warmth to our souls
We are splashed in glorious warmth
Our hope is restored
A Year without you...
My Darling Eve... Daddy went to your grave early today to spend some quiet time alone to reflect upon the wonderful and memorable times we had together. Daddy misses you so very much. It's been a rough journey for Daddy, but Daddy knows that with Jesus, there is hope of life eternal in Heaven, and Daddy will look forward to that day when we can be reunited once again...
One year has passed, and Daddy's love for you still grows stronger and stronger with each passing day. I'll miss and love you forever Darling, and you'll always be Daddy's one and only Princess... forever.
Till we meet in Heaven...
Have fun chasing butterflies and playing, and running and laughing... Daddy will be waiting eagerly to catch a glimpse of your chuckles and giggles here on earth...
With all my Love, Hugs and Kisses...
Daddy...
A Place Where Children Are
What kind of place would heaven be with all its streets of gold,
if all the souls, that dwell up there like yours and mine, were old?
How strange would heaven's music sound when harps begin to ring,
if children were not gathered 'round to help the angels sing.
The children that God sends to us are only just a loan,
He knows we need their sunshine to make the house a home.
We need the inspiration of a baby's blessed smile.
He doesn't say they've come to stay, just lends them for a while.
Sometimes it takes them years to do the work for which they come.
Sometimes in just a month or two our Father calls them home.
I like to think some souls up there bear not one sinful scar.
I love to think of heaven as a place where children are.
God's Will...
Not by choice but by God's Will
We've been left with memories that will only fill
A part of us that's left behind
Like dust in the wind and soon to find
That although we have faith, the day has come
That this dream is real and we're no longer numb
The presence of what I know in my heart
Will keep us together, never to part
Your smile has graced us to no end
A time for all of us to begin
Laughing, loving, caring for each
We no longer search, it's within our reach
You have blessed us all with something we lack
We will learn from you and always look back
God's Will has left us with a part of you
That will grace each day with a morning dew
To wake up to butterflies fluttering about
And the knowledge that we are not without
Your smile, your laughter, your love, your appeal
This, my dear, must be God's Will.
--Marcy Harper
* Missing you so much Darling.. You'll always be Daddy's one and only princess !
God care
Tears and melted heart of mine while reading this site(Found Eve's ad from Likas H. Physio Dept). Although my baby girl(6months)isnt at life threatening stage, but due to her incomplete form of brain that effecting her body movements, i can understand your feeling. Only bwt you and our almighty God know the feeling. That wasnt something easy to cope especially too see what Eve had gone thur during her life on the earth. God must have given lots of blessings and grace to Eve, mommy and daddy.
My prayers go with you all always. Especially for mommy who missed Eve so much and visiting this site so often. Pray the you all will look forward for the coming days and trusted that Eve is with the BEST baby sitter and under the BEST care of Jesus Christ now. No more tears from mommy or daddy(i know it is hard). God bless the parents.
Letter to Mom by Joy Curnutt
Mom, please don’t feel guilty
It was just my time to go.
I see you are still feeling sad,
And the tears just seem to flow.
We all come to earth for our lifetime,
And for some it’s not many years
I don’t want you to keep crying
You are shedding so many tears.
I haven’t really left you
Even though it may seem so.
I have just gone to my heavenly home,
And I’m closer to you than you know.
Just believe that when you say my name
I’m standing next to you,
I know you long to see me,
But there’s nothing I can do.
But I’ll still send you messages
And hope you understand,
That when your time comes to “cross over,”
I’ll be there to take your hand
