The Orlagh Windle Forever Fund
Orlagh contracted meningitis on the 15th August. A real tough cookie, she put up a brave fight and seemed to be slowly recovering. After 5 long weeks, she was finally strong enough to have an MRI scan but it revealed that she had suffered catastrophic brain damage and wouldn't survive.
We were lucky enough to get a bed for Orlagh at Martin House children's hospice where we were able to spend time together as a family, including Orlagh's baby sister Niamh who was born on during Orlagh's illness. Orlagh passed away peacefully 3 days later, surrounded by all her family.

Thinking of you especially at Easter.
It is not growing like a tree
In bulk, doth make Man better be;
Or standing long as oak, three hundred year,
To fall at last, dry, bald, and sere:
A lily of a day
Is fairer far in May,
Although it fall and die that night—
It was the plant and flower of Light.
In small proportions we just beauties see;
And in short measures life may perfect be.

A year ago today we spent our last day together before you got ill. I can remember it so clearly....
...you being naughty at church and looking up at me with the cheekiest grin
...sitting in the garden at nanna and granddads and aunty fran trying to eat her dinner but you stealing it
...going for a drive to a nice beer garden and you running around and making me sit on a totally different table to everyone else
...the drive back when you were so so talkative, playing the animal game with nanna and an not letting her speak to anyone else other than you
...you getting upset at home when daddy cut his finger because you didn't like to see daddy hurt
....saying night night and putting you to bed like any other night
...hearing you cry 2 hours later and knowing something wasn't right
I miss you so so much froggy xxxxx

« Next journal entry | Previous journal entry »six months
It’s 6 months today since I last heard you laugh,
Since you gave me a cuddle, since we played in the bath.
It’s since months today since I heard you say ‘mummy’,
Since you tried to feed ‘baby’ through my big pregnant tummy.
It’s 6 months today since we played the animal game,
Since you told me that ‘Orwa Weeble’ was your name.
But 6 months today was just the beginning
Of the battle you faced, one we thought you were winning.
6 months ago with the fear there was hope
Whatever the damage we knew we would cope.
Its 6 months today since the illness arrived
We’d spend 5 and a half weeks praying you would survive..........xxxx

Happy Christmas Orlagh.
It would have been your 3rd Christmas this year. We were so exited that you would actually get it this year. You would have totally loved all the lights and presents and most importantly, all the attention!!
We went to visit you first thing in the morning. Igle Piggle and macca pacca are still there keeping you company.
It is your baby sisters 1st christmas. She has got loads of pressies and has been spoiled rotten just like you would have been. All the family were together again. We thought about you all day, just like everyday, thinking about what we would all be doing together. Wish you were here froggy xxxx

Today should have been your 2nd birthday. I dont need to say how much I wish you could have been here.
I can still remember your 1st birthday so well. We bought you your bike and you were so excited when you saw it. Funny though that when we took you out on it, you wouldn't stay on it....you had started walking a month before and its all you wanted to do!!! You never had much of an attention span and the only way I could get you to stay on that bike was to push you through puddles. 'More puddles mummy, more puddles' you used to shout as we walked round the park. Thankfully, being in England, that was never much of a problem!!
So what would we have done today...definitely swimming would have been involved. Maybe your friends Reece and Lyla would have come too. And then we would have had a party tea with all your aunties and uncles and your nans and granddads.
We have all been together, all the family, thinking about you all day as always. Just wish so so much that it could be different.................. xxxxxxx

A beautiful poem for a beautiful little girl x
Mummy's poem to you is just beautiful. XXXX
Orlagh is beautiful Clare, a real cutie just like her little sister. You must be very proud of them. Niamh will have a very special angel watching over her now guiding and protecting her just like little Megan does. Sending lots of kisses and huggles to the sky for our babies xxx
Dear Orlagh,
This would of been the xmas that you really understood Santa. Dylan has been soo excited for weeks and went to see santa twice.
I miss you the most when I collect Dylan from nursery. You would of moved to the bigger boys and girls room with Dylan and Isabella. They didnt like it to start with but they are okay now . I am sure you would of loved the new nursery, its the same place where we all used to go New Lives and baby massage. You were so funny at baby massage I dont think your mummy every actually managed to massage you as you were not too happy about having your clothes taken off. You had the biggest mop of hair and this tiny red face.
Your baby sister Niamh would of had her first chrstmas this year and I am sure you would of helped her open all her presents as well as your own as Dylan too was chief present opener.
I still cant believe you are sleeping I am sure you will be next to Niamh for the whole of her life watching over her just as you would if you were here.
If only things could be different XxxX
