Daniel was our only child born 27 jan 1982 he was our life our everything..
daniel was an easygoing lad all 6 ft 5 ins of him he disliked school but when he left to become a
builder he was as happy as larry
always popular our house was always full of pals both girls and boys...oh how we miss all that..
His grandad brought him a car when he passed his test and that was his pride and joy and he spent
every penny on it including the music system of which he was so proud and i recall one day coming
home to see our very old neighbours sitting in the car whlie he demonstrated it..but that was
typical Dan young or old he just got on so well with everyone
he never drank and drove i guess his dad being a trucker that was instilled in him always....but on
that awful friday of may 11th 2001 looking for a high like so many kids he inhaled lighter fuel and
our life ended.....
we have many good family and friends who help us through but deep down we are just waiting to be
with our precious son again...xx

no word

AWIFE WHO LOSES HER HUSBAND IS CALLED A WIDOW
A HUSBAND WHO LOSES HIS WIFE IS CALLED A WIDOWER
A CHILD WHO LOSES HIS PARENTS IS CALLED AN ORPHAN
BUT THERE IS NO WORD FOR A PARENT WHO HAS LOST A CHILD
THAT IS HOW AWFUL THE LOSS IS.........

SLEEP

I LIE THERE AT NIGHT AND I WAIT FOR SLEEP
BUT THE TEARS COME INSTEAD SO I LIE THERE AND WEEP
I WEEP FOR THE PAST FOR WHAT HAS GONE
I FEAR FOR THE FUTURE-FOR WHAT HAS TO COME
THE PAIN OF THE LOSS IS VERY SEVERE
THE LONGING THE CRAVING,JUST ONE MORE TO HEAR
HIS KEY IN THE DOOR 'HI MUM ITS ME'
I LOST MY SON AND I LOST PART OF ME

Elaine Dennis (Mum) December 16, 2007

A MOTHERS LOVE FOR HER SON,
CAN NEVER BE CHANGED OR UNDONE,
SHE HAD HER CHILD ONE EARLY MORN,
HER PRECIOUS SON HAD JUST BEEN BORN,
WITH LOVE AND DEVOTION SHE HELD HIM TIGHT,
ALL THROUGH THE DAY AND INTO THE NIGHT,
SHE RAISED HER SON WITH LOVE FROM HER HEART,
IN HOPE WHEN HE GREW UP, HE WOULD BE SMART,
THE DAYS AND MONTHS SLOWLY WENT BY,
THEN THE YEARS PASSED IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE,
THE LOVE FOR HER SON,SHE HAD SHOWN,
A MOTHER IS PROUD AND BRAGS OF HER SON,
HOW HE HAS SHOWN, JUST WHAT HE HAS BECOME,
THEN ON THAT TERRIBLE DAY, THE WORD THAT SHE HEARS,
MAKE HER COLLAPSE AND BURST INTO TEARS,
WHAT THEY TOLD HER WILL REMAIN IN HER HEAD,
THEY SAID HER PRECIOUS SON WAS DEAD,
A MOTHER`S HEART HAS JUST BEEN BROKEN,
SHE STRUGGLES IN VAIN TO FIND A TOKEN,
SOMETHING OF HIS TO CHERISH AND HOLD,
NEVER TO FORGET EVEN WHEN SHE GROWS OLD,
THE LOSS OF HER SON AND HER DISBELIEVE,
SHOWS IN HER PAIN, BUT MORE IN HER GRIEF,
A MOTHERS LOVE SO PURE AND SO TRUE,
THE DAY IT STARTED IS WHEN SHE HAD YOU,
NOW A MOTHER HAS LOST HER LOVE,
AS SHE LOOKS TO THE HEAVENS AND GOD ABOVE,
HER HEART AND MIND, ONCE STRONG NOW WEAK,
WITH PAIN AND SORROW, SHE DOESN`T EVEN SPEAK,
NOW SHE MUST TRY TO GET THROUGH EACH DAY,
IN HOPES THAT SOMEHOW SHE CAN FIND THE WAY,
A MOTHERS LOVE ONCE PROUD ONCE NEW,
HAS BEEN SHATTERED BECAUSE SHE LOST YOU,
SO MOTHERS OUT THERE, I BEG OF YOU,
REMEMBER YOUR SON, BECAUSE HE LOVES YOU.

Ooo these words are so true....

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 - (I can just imagine Daniel saying this bit)

I have read your tragic story Daniel and as I looked over your lovely site here, and it is clear to me that you were loved so much while you were here. And so obvious that you are still and always will be loved and missed. My heart goes out to all of your family and friends. Especially your dear mum who writes her thoughts her and it breaks my heart to feel her pain. I am so very sorry for the loss of Daniel. The world will always know what an special part he was in so many lives. His life may have ended so tradgically but this site and your family & friends will keep his memory alive forever. I know it must truely be so very hard loosing your son and even harder when it is your only son. I wish I could find the words to let you know how much my heart aches for all of you. I do understand what it feels like for some to be so insensitive to you especially when you need their love and support most. And sometimes you feel abandoned while they go on with their lives and you are left with such a heartache that you can't seem to enjoy life. But please know that there is people who care, many are feeling the same hopeless feeling you are, and many who have not even felt that kind of pain still care and want to help. Sometimes we don't always understand but we care enough to listen when you need to pour your heart out, and let your tears flow. Please don't live with this pain alone. Reach out to others and accept any sympathy and kindness they are offering. This is not something we should have to go through in isolation. So please don't. If you want to talk please email me anytime. I admit I was not blessed at all with children, and even though the loss of the dream of never having a child doesn't compare to the loss of a child, I do understand much of what you have expressed here and I would like to help you in any way that I can. If you would like a shoulder to lean on, and someone to vent to without feeling you will be judged, please email me. Know that I care very much. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Hugs to you and please take care of you,
Rosemary xoxo

alone

ALONE

WHEN I REALISE I HAVE NO DESENDANTS NO GRANDCHILDREN TO CUDDLE AND SING LULLABIES TO
AND BE ABLE TO WATCH RUN AND PLAY TO TAKE PRIDE IN IT TEARS AT ,MY HEART
HOWEVER I REALISE ALSO THAT IM BLESSED BEYOND MEASURE WHEN WE WERE LOANED OUR SON
AND IN SPITE OF THE GRIEF I AM GOING THROUGH BECAUSE OF HIS DEATH I AM SO GLAD HE LIVED AND I HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF BEING HIS PARENT
THE JOYS HE BROUGHT INTO MY LIFE CAN NEVER BE TAKEN AWAY
YOU SEE HE WAS MY MOST TREASURED POSSESSION ON THIS EARTH

Elaine Dennis (Mum) August 14, 2007

is this me??

HOW CAN THIS BE ME…I USED TO BE FIRST UP AT A PARTY
HOW CAN THIS BE ME..I FEEL MORE AT EASE WITH GRIEF THAN PLEASURE
HOW CAN THIS BE ME…TOO AFRAID TO GO TO THE LOCAL SHOPS
HOW CAN THIS BE ME….I WAS A MUM

DO I LOOK DIFFERENT DO I SOUND THE SAME
DO I WALK DIFFERENT AM I CHANGED SO MUCH
DO I LOOK LIKE IM COPING..WHY CANT THEY SEE
DO I ASK FOR HELP.NO..THATS NOT ME

IVE LOST MY SON MY LIFE MY EVERYTHING
IVE LOST THE WILL TO GO ON..WHY AM I HERE
IVE LOST MY SPARKLE..IVE LOST MY SOUL
IVE LOST MY MOST PRECIOUS GIFT

CANT YOU HELP ME THROUGH
CANT YOU SEE MY PAIN
CANT YOU UNDERSTAND
I NEED HELP TO LIVE AGAIN

YOU KNEW I ADORED HIM
YOU KNEW I LIVED FOR HIM
YOU KNEW MY PAIN
YOU KNEW IT WOULD BE FOREVER

YOU SET A TIME AND WENT
YOU SAID WE HAD LONG ENOUGH
YOU SAID WE MUST MOVE ON
YOU SAID,,,WE CRIED…

YOUR LIFE IS BUSY
YOUR LIFE IS MOVING
YOUR LIFE HAS NO ROOM FOR US
YOUR LIFE ISNT OURS

OUR LIFE IS MEMORIES
OF OUR SPECIAL SON
WE WILL GET THROUGH..ALONE
WE HAVE TO GO ON

DANIEL WE MISS YOU WITH EVERY BREATH,,SIX LONG YEARS WE ARE SO TIRED OF BEING WITHOUT YOU……..
