Our son's name is Adam Michael Leo Stevens, he was born on the 28th September 07 and died 6 days old
on the 4th October 07.
Our baby was born with Trisomy 18 (Edwards Syndrome) and HLHS, neither of these were diagnosed in
pregnancy. So it was a complete shock when we were told. When he was born he had trouble breathing,
and they had to help him for 3 hrs to try to stablelise him. We just thought we were going to have a
small baby, that would need a little help with his lungs. Adam had to stay in hospital for 5 days,
he was on morphine, and various other medications, and on a respirator. When his Edwards was
confirmed the hospital refused to carry on with his treatment as they said he was incompatible with
life. It broke our hearts. The consultant told us that Adam's part of the brain that tells him to
breathe may not be developed so he may not breathe on his own, But he did.. i told the hospital i
wanted him home, so we brought him home that day. Me and my fiance were so happy, nothing else could
have compared to the complete joy and love that filled us, putting him in his car seat, bringing him
to his new home.. but so much sadness not knowing how much time we had with him. Adam made it
through his first night at home, my little fighter, but didn't make it through his second day at
home. He died in my arms at 1:20 in the afternoon, with his brother and sisters here.
He is our angel.
God was looking down on us.
When he took his very best of babies,
and placed him in our trust.
He was loaned but for a short time,
now he`s back where he belongs,
playing in the heavens,
sleeping in an Angels arms.'
Adam has 4 beautiful sisters and a brother who love him dearly, and a Mommy and Daddy who will
treasure him in our hearts and memories for all eternity. We love you little man..
'Catch Hold Of My Hand Mom'
Catch hold of my hand, Mom
Like you always do.
Catch hold of my hand, Mom,
For I really need you.
Catch hold of my hand Mom,
And take away the fear.
Catch hold of my hand Mom,
For I love you dear.
Catch hold of my hand Mom,
Though I can’t see you now.
Catch hold of my hand, Mom,
The pain has gone from my brow.
Catch hold of my hand, Mom,
For our love will never wane.
Catch hold of my hand, Mom,
God bless till we meet again.

Its been 16 months since Adam died. People say time heals.... it doesn't. The pain I feel is as
intense now, if not more than it was after Adam's funeral.
It feels like yesterday, and I can't quite believe it was 2007 when I gave birth to the most
beautiful baby boy. I miss him so much. I can't explain how it feels. My heart is like a jigsaw
puzzle with that last piece missing, that little piece that I keep searching for, and hoping will
turn up, but I know its gone forever.
I wish I could put into words how much I miss Adam. I cry so so much.
My children miss their brother. My daughter is terrified that if we ever had another baby, he would
die also.
Mommy and Daddy love you Adam x
My Child
I feel as though my heart must stop with pain.
I miss you so, the darkness will not pale.
My darling child, come to me again.
I know you cannot come, and still I strain
To put my arms around you through the veil.
I feel as though my heart must stop with pain.
Other lives and loves call me in vain.
I try to turn away from you and fail.
My darling child, come to me again.
You are my unendurable refrain.
Back and back I hurry to impale
My heart on you, to stop my heart with pain.
Yet nothing that I do undoes the plain
Brutal fact which always must prevail.
Ah, my darling, come to me again!
You are both my sunshine and my rain,
My dearest joy, my anguish, and my grail.
I feel as though my heart must stop with pain.
My darling child, come to me again.

happy birthday adam! x x
I heard you crying yesterday
And felt your heart-sent love
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.
You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My birthday (way up here)
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.
God planned a special day for me
He told me with a wink
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think)
I’m getting lots of hugs from God
He’s really good at that
And every time that I walk by
He gives my head a pat
Balloons will fill the streets for me
They float up through the clouds
And we have lots of clowns up here
That make us laugh out loud
There is a birthday carousel
Jeweled horses ride the wind
With music playing oh so sweet…
The magic never ends
I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing
We ride our bikes and play jump rope
And sleep in Angel’s wings
We’ll have our cake and ice cream
And open gifts, surprise!
But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies
lots of love n hugs sweet lil man x x
Happy Birthday In Heaven - by Winnie Lovett
"Happy Birthday Adam"
It's sure to be the best one yet,
Though you left us here behind.
Did you think that we'd forget?
Your cake this year, will surely be,
A beauty to behold.
With the icing made of Silver,
And the candles made of Gold.
Yes, your birthday in Heaven,
Will be such a grand affair.
And I know you'll look so lovely,
With a halo in your hair.
The Angels will come from everywhere,
To sing your birthday song.
And I know they'll be so happy,
That you've joined, God's Happy Throng.
No I can't send a card this year,
Or give a gift so fine.
So I'll just send a special prayer,
To that wonderful Son of yours.
Happy Birthday little man hope you have a wonderful party in heaven with all the angel babies. Make sure my Olivia & Jack dont have too much cake xx Sweet Dreams Angel x Thinking of your family xx
12TH SEPTEMBER 2009
With Love. xXx

I can't believe it's over
I watched the whole thing fall
And I never saw the writing that was on the wall
If I'd only knew
The days were slipping past
That the good things never last
That you were crying
Summer turned to winter
And the snow it turned to rain
And the rain turned into tears upon your face
I hardly recognize the girl you are today
And God I hope it's not too late
It's not too late
'Cause you are not alone
I'm always there with you
And we'll get lost together
Until the light comes pouring through
It's when you feel like you're done
And the darkness has won
Babe, you're not lost
When your world's crashing down
And you can't bear the cross
I said, babe, you're not lost
Life can show no mercy
It can tear your soul apart
It can make you feel like you've gone crazy but you're not
Things have seemed to change
There's one thing that's still the same
In my heart you have remained
And we can fly fly fly away
'Cause you are not alone
And I am there with you
And we'll get lost together
Until the light comes pouring through
It's when you feel like you're done
And the darkness has won
Babe, you're not lost
And the world's crashing down
And you can not bear the cross
I said, baby, you're not lost
I said, baby, you're not lost
I said, baby, you're not lost
I said, baby, you're not lost
Best Angel Friends - by Unknown Author
A beautiful little Angel showed up to Heaven's gates
Confused and unknowing the plan that for him awaits.
Then another little Angel walked up and took his hand and said,
"Please don't be sad you left, you're in the Promised Land."
"I'm glad to be here but I do not think I was meant to go,
Perhaps there was a mistake, for my Mummy wanted me so."
The little greeting Angel gave a sweet smile and said,
"My Mummy wanted me too, but to Heaven I was led.
You see, we do not get to choose when on earth it's time to go.
He gave us life, love and joy and a Mother's womb to grow.
The Lord still needs new Angels to guide them down on earth.
To watch over, comfort them, and help them see their worth."
"Is there still a way that I can sleep in my Mummy's bed?"
The greeting Angel grinned and said, "that luxury you'll keep.
I visit my Mummy nightly and softly sing her to sleep."
The little Angel replied, "then I think I'll like it here.
I'll visit my Mummy nightly and weaken her pain and fears.
I love her and will keep her safe at night and in between,
And let her know with a sweet memory that she is still with me."
The greeting Angel gave his new friend a big hug and said,
"Until our Mummy's meet us here, let's be best Angel friends."
"Okay," said the new Angel, "that sounds good to me."
Then the Angels sat and played keeping their Mummy's in sight,
Humming the tunes to the song they would sing to their Mummy's tonight...
Good night from our Angels XX
For Daddy On Father's Day - Author Unknown
A gift for you on Father’s Day,
What on earth could it be?
I know the gift you really want,
Is to once again, have me.
Or perhaps the gift of understanding,
To make sense, of a senseless loss.
I’m sorry, my dearest Daddy,
But for those gifts, you must speak to the Boss.
The gifts that I can give today,
Are memories both sad and sweet.
From the touch of your hand on Mummy’s tummy,
To my tiny little feet.
Remember, the joy you felt inside,
When you found out, you would be my Daddy?
The great big smiles upon your face.
You were over the moon, you were so happy.
Remember, when you felt me move,
The wonder and love you’d feel?
Remember it today Daddy,
It just might help you heal.
Remember the little cuddles we had,
And the moments that we shared.
Remember my little nose,
And the colour of my hair.
I love you dearest Daddy,
You know that this is true.
Just keep your memories of me alive,
And I will always live in you.
To Daddy from your Angel Adam xxxx
