On 15th April 2008 in Nottingham City Hospital I couldn’t believe my ears when the Doctor
announced “It’s a pink one Mummy”. I burst into tears of joy and asked my husband to double
check. We had a baby GIRL!! We already had 2 boys aged 7 and 4 who we love dearly and this
beautiful bundle completed our perfect little family.
We named her Alicia Fay, we had the name Alicia chosen for a girl since our first son was born Seven
years previous and couldn’t believe we would finally be using it!
Alicia was such a happy, smiley, baby. She had her moments though although very rarely, although
nobody believed me as the minute we were out with friends she was the life and soul, smiling and
cooing. She loved her big brothers and they adored her always playing with her and chasing her in
her walker and as she got bigger, she would sometimes chase them too.
On 25th March 2009 our world was rocked when after only 8 hours of illness our pink princess took
her last breath in my arms in Lincoln County A & E. The Doctors did everything they could but she
passed away. It was 3 weeks before her First Birthday. We still don’t know what happened and why
our precious princess took such a sudden downturn after appearing to be fine. Early post-mortem
results found her to have an enlarged heart they don’t know why though, hopefully the inquest will
give us some answers but nothing will take away the agony and the feeling of emptiness that losing
our little girl has caused our family.
Play with the other beautiful Angels darling until we can scoop you into our arms again, our
beautiful pink princess, our Alicia Fay.
Love, hugs and huge kisses, Mummy, Daddy, Kenan and Ellis xx
Alicia's inquests was held on 5th August 2009 and found that Alicia died from a virus which attacked
her heart and lungs.
This changes nothing other than to confirm that there was nothing anyone could have done.
Love and miss you so much baby girl xxx
I just had to leave a message. What a beautiful baby!! so sorry for your loss, she will stay forever young and you will see her again one day in heaven.
There will be a time for you.
I would like to offer my deepest condolences to yourself and your family. I understand completely when you say emptiness. We lost our eldest boy last year in May and our life has completely changed we don't have the feeling of being carefree, the feeling you have when your family is complete...We prayed that maybe god would maybe give us something back of our beautiful son and so we now have a beautiful baby girl Layla-Qasim who was born in April before his first anniversary..we smile a little now..The children you have will get you through although you will never forget and hope, hope that there will be a day where you will reunite with your little girl. You'll always have her with you because you carry her in your heart. Godbless.
A poem read at Alicia's funeral
In a baby castle, just beyond my eye
My baby play’s with angel toy’s that money cannot buy
Who am I to wish her back, into this world of strife?
No, play on my baby, you have eternal life.
At night when all is silent , and sleep forsakes my eyes.
I’ll hear her tiny footsteps, come running to my side.
Her little hand’s caress me, so tenderly and sweet.
I’ll breathe a prayer and close my eye’s and embrace her in my sleep.
Now I have a treasure that I rate above all other,
I have known true glory,
I am still her mother!
