Hi There Deb!

Im just popping in to say hello! I always enjoy visiting your cb site! It amazes me that Angel Katelyn had to endure 103 transfusions! Logan has had 5 and I thought that was enough! I say this because I really need to get out there and donate blood! I have done so in the past but to be honest, I havent done it in quite awhile! Remembering that your baby endured 103 transfusions has really given me the motivation to set aside the time next week to go and donate blood! Thank you! :)

Hugs and Best wishes always! :)

It is great to have friends! Especially with your little Boo, Puffy-face Angel Katelyn helping! I sure wish we knew of her! What a Joy in such a little while that you have had her. But if it wasn't for her, you would never of known many of us who care. Or for that fact- did you ever in your life realize that you could go though all you have gone though? An amazing caring lady you are Debbie! Hey, since you haven't found Brian's wedding present---could it be just HIM?????
Hugs and oodles of prayers!

I hope the anniversary of your father's death brought back some happy memories as well as the painful ones. One day last year, about four years after my father's death, I was in the grocery store and I spotted a man a few aisles over who could have been my father's twin. As I stood in line, I kept glancing at him, and the feeling I had was just one of overwhelming affection. I don't know how to describe it, but it was just such a nice feeling, if that doesn't seem too strange, to know that the difficult circumstances of my father's death had washed away and just left this affection behind. It still makes me smile when I remember it.

Hi Deb,
Just letting you know I was here. Funny, you probably think I'm nuts but I come here for comfort. I pop on Katelyn's webpage and the music starts playing and I take my time just going over the pictures and memories I have of time spent together and somehow it brings peace to my heart. Oh...to get that kiss in person...but you're amazing talent and pure heartfelt love that you give so freely and chose to share on this page never fails to comfort. Thank you for allowing me the privilage to be part of it all. I love you all immensely and I actually ache knowing that no matter how much I offer my support it can't help you feel less pain for your Angels. I'm sure your Dad and Katleyn will let you know that they are there to lift you when you need it. Give each other a big hug and kiss for me! xooxxo

Hi There. I ran across your wonderful website. Your little girl was so cute. My daughter was a bone marrow donor in 2004 and we are going to meet the little girl in March. God has been so good. I trust that he is continuing to give you peace during these times. My heart and thoughts go out to you all. God Bless You!! Little Abigail Floyd received my daughters bone marrow. She also has a website on Caring Bridge. Take care now.

Hi Deb!

YOU ARE SO FUNNY! :) I about fell out of my chair laughing so hard this morning when I read your message! The "Pooh Pro's." Hee hee! How funny!

Yes! That list cracks me up and it definitely relates to any parent who has had an ill child! The part about being able to sleep anywhere for reclines more than 15 degrees and the part about the truck backing up and thinking its the iv alarm beeping are what made me laugh the most....HOW TRUE! :)

I love coming by to visit your site! Your angel Katelyn always makes me smile! She is such a precious little angel! :) I love all of the collages and the her name with the butterflies! How cute! You really have quite a talent! Your site is simply perfect!

I will check back in on you guys again soon! Thanks for the laugh! Hee hee!

Tears of sorrow, tears of happiness.
What a treasure you held,
a treasure to be returned all too soon.
Isn't it amazing that

changing our hearts forever,
making a difference,
accomplishing more than most do
in a full lifetime.

Hi Brian and Deb

Life can be so amazing. How is it that things seem to work out the way they do? My nephew passed away three days after my baby shower, all the aunts and uncle were there including some cousins. It was the healthiest he had ever been, for what ever reason we got to see him one last time. God we were so lucky!

I can only imagine how you feel with the anniversary of your father's passing. I am so greatful for having my father still here, especially with all he has been going through lately (thanks Deb for MSNing with me that night). I just got home and phoned a friend who had called to see how my dad was... when I was done rambling on about this past week I asked how her week had been... then she said... "not too well, my Dad died this morning". As I cannot find the words that I wish to say to you... so did I draw a blank at what to say to my friend. Such a loss! A dear, kind-hearted person! Deb, my heart aches for you and wishes you comfort.

you know things happne for a reason. may not like them or know why
but katelyn knew before she became an angel. she knew
and with that knowledge she helped make everyone happy and joyful . maybe her present as you call it to you.
children know a great deal more hen what they let one. and maybe the goodman let her on a agreat secret to share with you all before she became an angel.
with that who wouldnt want to treasure her memories:0)

It is wonderful how Katelyn still blesses you and all who read about her. The memories you share now are an extension of the miracle she was and is. When you were going through it you could see the blessings and now looking back you see it in another perspective but her presences is just as powerful. She is still giving you strenghth isn't she? What a beautiful angel!!!

Oh and I have to tell you, although Sarah is only in grade one, they are doing a social studies course on Family, family trees, and Why family is so important! So they had to bring in pictures of a family member who has touched their lives and who has a special place with them....

Well my sweet little baby along with pictures of Grandma, Grandpa and of course their dog Stella, and of Rob, Robert and I and etc. well my sweet little girl asked if she could bring a picture of her cousin Katelyn......Um Sarah you don't have a cousin Katelyn, Yes I do mommy, Angel Katelyn and I'm bringing the one with Deb and Brian in it too!! how proud am I right now! lol

love from all of us!

I just wanted to stop by to let you know that
you are in our hearts and prayers always! Aren't
our kids amazing... When Jason's grandpa died
from cancer we both felt like we needed to go
over to see him. We showed up and then he took
a turn for the worst while we were there. Great
Grandma Jo was holding Collin in her arms when
he died. We stayed while we waited for them to
pick him up seeing as he was sent home for his
last days. Great Grandma Jo went into the kitchen
and held Collin so tight while they took Great
Grandpa out. It is amazing what comfort these
sweet little kids bring even if they can't
say a word. I love you!
BIG HUGS,
Collin

Good Morning Debbie & Brian
I am glad mom signed in,She did a good job all by herself.And yes she should get herself a computer.
Now how can anyone top Bonnie's last entry??? (I loved it Bon.)
I had a hard time not laughing out loud at work. Remembering those special things about the Squirt.The video with her laying on the floor on her stomach,kicking her legs and shaking her bootie.
And can't forget that look on her face"Happy to be entertaining the troop look" LOL
Now thats Debbie,Doug & Ricky all rolled into one!!

Even though we miss her & dad SOOOooo much we can always smile thinking of the way they both touched our lives forever.
Never a day will go by that they won't be in our thoughts.
Luv Conn

You have got to be the best Debbie!! You are caring, trustworthy, sincere, compassionate, explain stuff well, love animals, garden, cook, paint etc. etc.etc. Brian you look after her well (you must be kinda cool yourself to have her though)or us people from Guelph will come and get ya. Ha Ha.
Debbie help me (miles away) get pictures on for our caring bridge friends, instead of using this one for herself. Now isn't she a "genuine sweetie pie"? Katelyn, your Dad and Brian's Grandma must be smiling ear to ear today for you!
Can't thank you enough!
Hugs and oodles of prayers!

Just stopping by to say I'll be thinking of you as you mark the anniversary of your Dad's passing. He sounds pretty special, to have left you with so many wonderful memories. Katelyn's page is so pretty; I love the little twinklies on the page, and her little face peeking out in the guestbook is just too precious. A very sweet brave little girl!

Hi Deb

Just me. I guess I can be considered one of the guilty parties but I'm usually at work when I check in and we both know how hard I work.lol. I'll be thinking of you on your dad's anniversary. The site looks great. I love your mom's signature on the guestbook entry. Not hard to figure out where you got your sense of humour when you have parents like that! Take care.

Hi Deb,
Sorry for the absence...between the new job and Brandon being in Sick Kids (boy we have to talk about how different that is with me not working there!) it has been crazy. You are in my thoughts daily however holding me together when I think things are tough. See you are never really that far from my heart...must be Katelyn holding us together good friend. Love you (yeah you too Brian!:)_)
Have a great week.

Dear Debbie,

Today is my first time to visit Katelyn's site. She is an absolutely precious little girl. Her smile reminds me so much of my daughter's smile. I suspect Kately and Katherine, my daughter, are angel buddies. They both earned their wings at about the same age and both seem to have such strong spirits based on what I saw and read on the site. Please know you are in my prayers. Thank you for sharing Katelyn's story.

Warmest regards,

Diana, Mother of Angel Katherine http://www.caringbridge.org/tx/katherinecross/ <diana@houston.rr.com>

Hi Debbie!
OMGosh do I have a loooong email's worth to share with you regarding your last entry. I hear about creepy and just plain mean people writing emails to CB'ers and I have actually received some nasty stuff. Ah, basically, I'm glad you wrote what you did. It is a shame.

Now on to the real note! Did I tell you how much I love Katelyn's quilt! :D You did a beautiful job and her photos are so cute! I love the early baby ones! It is so awesome to see a timeline for the lovely little girl's earthly life. So sweet.

Sending you love!

I was thinking about dad today...
I was thinking that dad had that rare sense of humor that he passed on to Debbie, this was passed onto my nephew Doug and then to my son Rick.
This special trait makes them all very caring people with a sense of humor that outside people put them on the borderline of strange (Brian, you know the look we give them!)
It is no wonder that Katelyn is so special......she had all of these family traits rolled into one little person.
Katelyn had dad’s sense of humor, no matter how bad life got at times there was always something to find funny about the situation.
Katelyn had a little bit of Debbie in her and could get people’s attention by doing the strangest things and insure that they had a smile on their face and that nobody forgot about them.
Katelyn had a little Doug in her and she could dance and move those legs and hips and shake her bootie. (The family knows the dance)
Katelyn had a little bit of Ricky in her and was never afraid to laugh out loud no matter how off beat the joke was.
It is no wonder that little Katelyn could touch so many people....she had all of the best family traits (Ok, there is only a few good ones to speak of) all rolled into one little body.

Debbie and I were watching the videos one night and Katelyn was laughing, dancing, making funny faces (just like dad) and laughing out loud, what a special little girl

We miss all these good qualities so much........There will never be anybody else like Katelyn.
Love Aunt Bonnie

Amazing Deb...
I just LOVE Katelyns webpage now. Can I hire you ;)
I really do love it. You do such a great job with it.
These last few weeks since xmas have been extreamly hard on me with Jacobs angel day approaching I seem to be getting deeper and deeper into my little cocoon. Wish it was easier, but Im sure you understand how it is. I havent been on the computer much at all, and am behind over 1000 emails, ugh headache thinking about it all. My support chat group has been busy, and also so many new angels in the SMA community, each is like losing another child of your own. Damn SMA.
Anyway all that to tell you I read your journal history b/c Im behind again :( I totally know how you feel about no one signing the guestbook. Its like that on Jacobs site too. But I understand with Jacobs I havent been updating like I used to. And I have to appoligize for not being here for you and Brian much lately. Sorry about that.
Im awaiting the answer on a house we put an offer on in Belleville. Keeping my fingers crossed this is the second offer we put in on it. THey have till 8 tonight.
Man this should have been an email eh! LOL
Sorry,
Thinking of you all and again, I love love love what you have done with Katelyns website.
Hugs and love,

Hi Deb,
Just stopped by to check on you and to see what is new on your web page - you do such a great job of sharing your love for Katelyn and expressing your feelings with the hope of helping others. You are a very special lady!! I love the quilt you made - it's beautiful - but then how can it be anything but beautiful when you receive your inspiration from an angel. I bet Katelyn is very proud of her Mom and Dad and makes sure all the other angels know it.

Mornin' all!
Well guys...good news! I attended my workshop on Saturday and as thought, Karen did discuss your photos with the group. Good news>>> she too, feels it was divine energy in your home and senses more an angel versus a spirit.
Wow...what a kid you have! Sending angels to give you signs now! It was explained that, when we ask the spirits of our loved ones to help us (for instance) they can't do it because they don't possess divine energy so they appeal to the angels to do the actual work.
In my estimation...your faith in Katelyn is so strong that those miracles you've always prayed for are now showing themselves physically in your world. How special is that!
There's your warm fuzzy for the day.
Have a good one.
all our love,
Kelly and Kirkie xoxoxo

Hi everyone,
Just thought I would stop in to say thanks to Deb and her little helpers for doing such a great job on Katelyns site. I miss her soo much, but I know she is with me every minute of every day. I know this because she keeps me from lashing out and doing something stupid that I might regret.Thanks again to everyone who signs our guestbook or anyones guestbook for that matter, It helps to get through those days your not sure you can finish so keep up the good work and pass it forward. Five minutes of your time could be like winning the lottery to someone else.
I love you Boo.

One little favor, one of our little neuroblastoma buddies past away tonight and since I have been lucky enough to hang on to my little Jake, I have no words for this family..I was wondering if you had any advice on what helped you the most..Don't feel obligated to write back, as I am sure this may be hard to share.

Each time I visit a CB site, I always offer a prayer up. I'm sorry for your loss, and pray God will continue to ease your pain. Most of the time I don't sign guestbooks. I just don't know what to say. I do know God is in control, and He will respond.

Yes, I know what you mean about the guestbook and I admit it, I am GUILTY! I check on Katelyn's page at least 3 or 4 times a week, but I only usually sign once a week! I asked myself the same questions that you are. . . just who IS checking up on us! Then, I added Alex's map onto his page and he had EIGHTY-ONE people put their pin on it! I am sure that there are more than that who check on him, but WOW that was amazing to see. You could post a map on your page too!

I want to tell you that the angels on Katelyn's page are beautiful, they made me go "awwwwww." Of course, not nearly as beautiful as angel Katelyn! :)

Your baby is absolutely beautiful!!!!! She reminds me of my little girl (who thankfully is now 8)! You are a strong mother and I agree, nothing means more than a note to say that someone is thinking of your and praying that your pain will ease, as we all know, it will never end. Please visit and pray for my friend from High School, Britt at /sc/britt.
I will try to stop by more often as I now have this site! Keep talking to those of us that are listening, we will be here when you need to talk!

Sending lots of love and hugs to you and hoping things are good!

Hi Deb,
I sometimes get frustrated when no one signs too. But I can understand why they don't also. People in my family or close friends have told me they just don't know what to say. Knowing so many are reading I guess is intimidating to some readers. Anyway, I hope all is well with you. I love coming to your page to see what is new and creative...it is always a surprise. Best wishes on your new projects.

Hey There Deb!

First! I want to thank you for the last message you left on my son's caringbridge site! It was really sweet and we are very appreciative! You are such a caring person and I am so happy that we ran across eachothers caringbridge pages! :)

I am so sorry that I havent been by in awhile! My son and I just got back from Colorado! My family is there! We havent been there in 5 years so it was time to go! :)

I can relate to everything you wrote in your last journal entry! It really is a weird feeling when we notice that a lot of people have visited but we have no way of knowing who it was unless they leave a message! I also know exactly what you mean when you talk about how we pour our hearts out in our journal entries! Dont worry! :) I always leave a message when I stop by! :)

I hope that 2006 will bring many blessings to you and your family! Its easy to imagine that your beautiful little ANGEL is watching you from the heavens and is so very proud of her mommy! HUGS!

Good morning Deb. Shelby just loved the angels on your site and keeps getting me to visit just to see them. She says they are angels like all of her friends in Heaven. Pretty insightful for such a little girl. It amazes me at how quickly these little heroes have to grow up in such a short time (not to mention the parents). You are so right when it comes to guest book entries. For me, it is a record of our journey and I don't want to forget one moment in time or all the people who stood along side us supporting us. Your beautiful angel is in Heaven so proud to call you mom as you continue to share your life with us. We are all blessed to have such a special angel watching over Shelby as she continues battling this nasty disease. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers and always close to our hearts. Keep the faith, stay strong and God bless. Remember, "If you believe, all things are possible."
Love Shelby and family

What a beautiful story you put on the guestbook (needed a few tissues for that one).
That was our Katelyn,Brave Little Soul is exactly what she is.
Katelyn changed so many lives and no matter what life brought us, she always made us see things in a different way.
I can't even imagine how we got through life before her. Our way of thinking almost seems ridiculous before she came into our life. The crazy things we use to worry about, how selfish we were, our priorities,just our way of thinking doesn't even make sense to us any more.
Katelyn brought us so much joy but she leaves behind her a legacy because she has changed so many peoples lives in such a short time.

Thanks for reminding us what a BRAVE LITTLE SOUL, she really is

I lost my son on October 5, 2005. It has been three months without my baby. I hope this gets easier. He had two transplants and his lungs failed. Stay strong.

Hi Deb and Brian,
I so get the guestbook issue. I am so glad to hear the news about Alison. I tried to sign your guestbook the other day but the computer I was on was too old so it never loaded. I think it would have taken 15 mins. I have not had a chance to respond to your email yet about your issue but will get back to you soon. Take care and I will chat with you soon hopefully. Wasen't Shelley so pretty on her wedding day. They got some great pictures.

Good morning from Brampton! I've been wandering around the computer checking on things and people and thought I'd say "hi". What a marvelous page you've done for Katelyn, wow! Can't remember if I told you that come April I can get back to blood donating, something I used to do regularly until I started on meds. Well, it turns out that I can still give, just as soon as the year is up from my last earring! Can't wait, and I'll be sure to do it in honour of your angel. I trust you are both keeping well. Take good care! Maire & Kasey

Hey down there!
The page is looking great as usual. How can the rest of us ever keep up?! Sorry I didn't reply to you recent email re: bracelets. You haven't lost your mind and yes I requested 4 and told you I was sending the cash and then got wrapped up in the flu bug and neglected to do so. What a scatterbrain I am recently!
Anywho...I hope you still have those extras and how much do I owe again? LOL And just think...you think you're bad!

Kirk's been fine (touch wood). Seizures are up but we're managing. Imagine my surprise today when I received his latest metabolics clinic report and they wrote that his test for CDG came back negative!!! I know they're constantly testing him further because his mito dx is only 'probable' but I don't recall them mentioning that. I'm sure they did but I was probably brain dead at the time. LOL

By the way everyone...I should let you know that the money raised from Kirkland's Mito March went to the Metabolism Research team at Sick Kids. This team is also responsible for researching Katelyn's disease, CDG too. Prior to Christmas, the head of research, Dr. Robinson, called me to let me know that they spent $27 000.00 plus tax on a piece of lab equipment called a Real Time PCR machine. It's basically a very fancy DNA analyser which will help all Metabolic diseases not just Kirkland's.

Today, when I called him, and asked Dr. Robinson what they did at Sick Kids before they had their own PCR machine, (e.g. did they send the samples off to another hospital?), he said they didn't run these types of tests...We've created a whole new initiative for their Research team that they'd never had the capability of conducting prior to our fundraising efforts.

So many of you participated through our "Katelyn-Kirkland connection". Thank you soooo much. I just wanted you to be aware that all of our efforts, are paying off. CDG and Mito kids alike, along with many other metabolic diseases are benefitting from Katelyn and Kirkland's romance LOL.

Aunt CoCo, I cried when I received your letter the other day. I will of course be contacting your friend, Mike to thank him for his unselfish donation to help our kids. Please let him know that it will definitely provide our wonderful researchers with the means to keep working towards a cure or treatment for our little ones if that's where he'd like it directed.
Isn't it just incredible...the legacy our babies have, and will leave behind?!

Sh%$#t! I've gone and done it again...you're explaining how much it means to have visitors sign the guestbook... and here I go, writing whole journal messages in your guestbook instead of on Kirk's page LOL. Oh well, I'll just refer them over here!

Take care everyone! Great news Alison! Fight! Brandon, Fight! We're all with you.

Hugs and kisses,
Kelly and Kirkie xoxoxo

Actually he's not too bad, but brewing something and considering how ill he got before Xmas they are being extra cautious, better safe that sorry. Thanks for always being his rock to lean on!!!

The Brave Little Soul
By: John Alessi

Not too long ago in Heaven there was a little soul who took wonder in observing the world. He especially enjoyed the love he saw there and often expressed this joy with God. One day however, the little soul was sad, for on this day he saw suffering in the world. He approached God and sadly asked, "Why do bad things happen, why is there suffering in the world?".

God paused for a moment and replied, "Little soul, do not be sad, for the suffering you see, unlocks the love in peoples hearts". The little soul was confused. "What do you mean", he asked. God replied, "Have you not noticed the goodness and love that is the offspring of that suffering? Look at how people come together, drop their differences, and show their love and compassion for those who suffer. All their other motivations disappear and they become motivated by love alone.

The little soul began to understand and listened attentively as God continued, "The suffering soul unlocks the love in people's hearts much like the sun and rain unlock the flower within the seed. I created everyone with endless love in their heart, but unfortunately most people keep it locked up and hardly share it with anyone. They are afraid to let their love shine freely, because they are afraid of being hurt. But a suffering soul unlocks that love. I tell you this-it is the greatest miracle of all. Many souls have bravely chosen to go into the world and suffer-to unlock this love-to create this miracle-for the good of all humanity.

Just then the little soul got a wonderful idea and could hardly contain himself. With his wings fluttering, bouncing up and down, the little soul excitedly replied, "I am brave; let me go! I would like to go into this world and suffer so that I can unlock the goodness and love in people's hearts! I want to create that miracle!

God smiled and said, "You are a brave soul I know, and thus I will grant your request. But even though you are very brave you will not be able to do this alone. I have known since the beginning of time that you would ask for this and so I have carefully selected many souls to care for you on your journey. Those souls will help you create your miracle; however they will also share in your suffering. Two of these souls are most special and will care for you, help you and suffer along with you, far beyond the others. They have already chosen a name for you.

God and the brave little soul shared a smile, and then embraced. In parting, God said, "Do not forget little soul that I will be with you always. Although you have agreed to bear the pain, you will do so through my strength. And if the time should come when you feel that you have suffered enough, just say the word, think the thought, and you will be healed.

Thus at that moment the brave little soul was born into the world, and through his suffering and God's strength he unlocked the goodness and love in people's hearts. For so many people dropped their differences and came together to show their love. Priorities became properly aligned. People gave from their hearts. Those that were always too busy found time. Many began new spiritual journeys-some regained lost faith-many came back to God. Parents hugged their children tighter. Friends and family grew closer. Old friends got together and new friendships were made. Distant family reunited, and every family spent more time together. Everyone prayed. Peace and love reigned. Lives were changed forever. It was good. The world was a better place. The miracle had happened. God was pleased."

I love the page.

Deb, thank you for your kind words in Meghan's guestbook. I too am glad we met unfortunately due to awful circumstances. No one can ever imagine how bad losing a child is unless they have been inducted into this horrible horrible community. When people say "they don't know what to say", I simply tell them to tell me something they remember about Meghan, or tell me how she changed their outlook on life even if they had never met her. Hearing our child's name is the most important thing to us and honoring their short time on earth will be something as parents each of us will continue to do. It is a lonely, lonely journey and one which never gets easier. I will continue to visit Katelyn's site in honor of her short little life, and to be here for you in support of your grief, shock sadness and anger. Please know there are moms out here who are here for you and have been where you are in your journey. Sending you my thoughts and prayers. PS: Meghan is "the chubb" in the Angel wings on her front page. You made me smile calling her "chubb", because that she was :o) Not sure what you wanted to quote from my entry, but please feel free :o) PSS: I LOVE "Princess Puffy Cheeks"!

I am a frequent visitor of many CB websites and find myself only viewing the updates. There are many people, like myself, who are at a loss for words but nonetheless are very concerned about all the children and their families who go down this valiant road.

I often come by to check and see how you & your family are doing, however I don’t always sign the guestbook. I sort of felt that by just dropping by that was some form of support, although I now understand that it is not and how it must be sheer frustration seeing the counter go up and no messages. Sorry!

Thank you for your update and for making me truly understand how important all visitors to CB sites are..Your message made me feel like I was welcome to visit as long as I pop in to say hi.

Love & HOpe

Leave it to my sister to get her point across....

I better not leave without signing the guestbook,

I am so proud of the way Debbie keeps up this website after her and Brian have lost thier precious daughter, it is not always easy to come up with new entries but she always amazes us with her love and devotion towards Katelyn.
The amount of work that goes into these pages would surprise anybody that takes the time to read and I can see why caringbridge families get so frustrated.
It is such a great joy to see so many people all over the world being touched by Katelyn's story.....these entries help more than you realize.
Thank-you to all the people that take the time to sign in...
It really does make a HUGE difference.

Hello! I linked and linked and linked and ended up at your daughter's beautiful site. I was smitten with her beauty and her name. Our oldest daughter, who passed away nine years ago from a brain tumor, was named Caitlin.

CaringBridge wasn't a keep-people-updated tool back then. It is such a fabulous system, except, as you mentioned, not everyone signs in to the guestbook.

So, from a mom in Minnesota, thank you for still writing. Your words help others more than you may ever know.

Deb, I came to you from Angel Alexandria's caringbridge site. Your Angel is so beautiful and I know how much she is missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and I will continue to come back (and sign in), as I completely understand what you're talking about and the frustration of people not dropping a note just to say "we're thinking about your girls". Anyway, it is a pleasure to meet your sweet baby.

Visitor #57830 & #57831. Just came to see how the visitor numbers are going. I accidently went back to the main page instead of entering this quick note and by doing that I bumped the counter up one more! Oops. Now if I go back there again before heading over to Tayler's page I wonder if that will increase it again... we will have to see. That means this visit will look like three hits! Oops!

Hope you have a great weekend. Did you know that spring in on the way? Well in a few more months. It is hard to believe that the days are getting longer!

Hello there-
Just read your update from last night. Such a strange thing....the "lurking" situation. We have experienced it, as every other CB family has too. It is hard to see the number of hits go up, the reassuring words in the guestbook (or even a name) not always following. I hope your honesty inspires people to change and write !!!

Hi you don't know me but I came across your daughters website one day. She was a beutiful baby girl. I lost my daughter to cancer on May 6,2005 and as I read your website today I know exactly how you feel. My daughter was 16 and lost her battle after fighting for 41/2 years. Please feel free to check her website her name is Cassie now the website is www.caringbridge.org/canada/lorina I screwed up when doing it that is why it is under my name. Take care

Hi Debbie,

Like you, I can't wait to get started again on my girl's memorial garden. Fortunately here, the weather allows me to do quite a bit during the winter, but when spring comes, I hope to have it back as beautiful as it was last year. When I am out there working in Cheyenne's garden, I can actually feel her presence with me. So, of course, I spend a lot of time there.

Be sure and send or post some photos of the waterfall when it is done. I am still in the planning stage as I haven't completely chosen a design yet.

Thinking of you and your sweet Katelyn. God Bless.

Dear Deb and Family,
I just want to apologize to you and your family. I am one of those readers and not a signer. I never know what to say.
I read your entries and I think that you are such special people for all that you have been through. Angel Katelyn is such a beautiful little girl,, and God gave her very special parents and family.
I cannot believe that people can be so cruel..They probably
never lost a person that they loved so dearly. I lost my dad 5 1/2 years ago and I still talk about him like he is here..because in my heart he is.
You are in my thoughts and Prayers.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hello, it's Liz, Adam's mom checking in as I usually do. I'm sorry that you lost your Dad just months before Katelyn earned her wings. My mom had gone in for surgery and had the worst complications one can only have in the hospital. Infections, ventilator - I could go on and on. The time of Adam's last hospitalization (June 18-July 9) was particularly overwhelming. It was very hard to be in two places at once. I feel now I can handle anything that life throws me now. And yes, I have bookmarked Kirkland's site. I check on him everyday and I can tell his parents and brother are just wonderful. If someone were to tell me years ago that having a child with severe special needs is really a blessing, I'm not sure I would have believed them. But now I know it is true. And yes, we adopted Nina from Korea on 2/16/05 at 6 months old. It was a wonderful experience for all of us and I recommend that program. Bye for now.

Hi Deb,
I got a chance to read a little more of your site tonight. Your little princess was an amazing warrior, wasn't she? Such strong love, such strong fight in a teeny little body! Amazing, just like her mama!

Thanks for checking in with us. We're enjoying the puppy! I loved the pictures on your home page with Katelyn and your goldens. It's true...happiness really is a warm puppy.


Praying for peace for you and your family. I love that Katelyn sends you little messages. I've only had one from Dave. Maybe Katelyn will nudge him a little!



Love, Michelle

How Far To Heaven

How far is it to heaven?
Is Heaven in our dreams at night?
Or is it when we turn out the light.

Is it there on a warm summer's day?
Or is it there when you dream the day away.

Is it born on a warm summer breeze?
Or is it there when the leaves blow on the trees.

Is it there when we wake to hear the birds in the morn?
Or is it there when the day is long.

Is it where the flowers bloom?
Or is it when the sky is clear blue.

All I know is that Heaven is here on Earth in every breath we take,
every sight we see everything we taste, feel, smell & hear.

Heaven is near.

I don't always post myself as I am usually holding a child in my arms, but I do try to get back to post later on.

I am sorry you had to lose your daughter...she is one beautiful little girl! I love those cheeks!

Hello - I'm Liz and I too have an angel. Angel Adam who died 2 years ago at 4 months old. His caringbridge site is: www.caringbridge.org/ma/bundle. User Name: "together", Password: "forever." I have enjoyed reading your site. I think I have visited once before. Sorry for not signing then. I totally understand the frustration. I too enjoy seeing encouraging words and become frustrated when it seems many are visiting, but not signing. I will check it on you. I can see that Katelyn was a beautiful child. I'm sure you know how lucky you are to have had such a wonderful child. I know Adam taught our whole family so much about love. That even when the person we love (more than anything) isn't with us, their love transcends all. I didn't know that before Adam died, but now I know.

Good Idea Christine.I accept your challange!!!

Caring Bridge::Families with sick children Or family member's.Caring people able to bridge to those families who need support thru the web site.A site to let us know there are families out there who need alot of prayer's.And for the rest of us to appreciate what we do have.

To me personally::It was a blessing.With Katelyn being at Sick Kids so much of her life, we got to keep in contact with Debbie.So we weren't always in the dark about what was happening to the Squirt.Even though we alway's worried about her ,we got to know other people did also.
Being able to put picture's on the site was the GREATEST.Then we got to see how much Katelyn had grown,To see her Wonderful smile :) and that **sparkle** that was always in those eye's.
****You know what I'm talking about****

Caring Bridge also means we get to meet alot of other families and see the pictures they post,then we can put a face to the kids that we are praying for. I like that.
CARING BRIDGE IS A MIRACLE SITE.Without it families wouldn't know how many people really do care and are saying pray's for them.They can keep in contact with other family member's.

What Caringbridge means to me??? Honestly caringbridge doesn't mean a whole lot to me personally, a few ppl who have caringbridge sites on the other hand do mean alot to me.
What caringbridge means to Deb??? Caringbridge is an oulet for Deb, a place to go & share the memories of her daughter, her most intimate feelings, a way to be close to Katelyn, & keep her memory alive, SUPPORT! quite obviously if you spend any time around this site you can see the tremendous support people give, friendship, not only does Deb recieve support, she gives it! she spends alot of time looking @, & signing her friends sites & really cares about these people, & this community. Caringbridge is people, real live people not jst a computer screen, these are ppl who care. For whatever reason alot of people don't sign, for me, well i'm trying, but don't forget even if this guestbook has none, or very lil entries compared to the # of hits, remember every single hit on this site was impacted by Katelyn, & even if they don't sign ppl still care about you, & think of you often.

There should be law about posting this late @ night lol hard to type let alone think! BUT look Deb i speeled tremendous! lol
Love your real live friend! Karen

Calling out to ALL people now!!!! Listen up all my peeps! lol oh yuck, now I know why I don't use that word! lol

OKAY FOR REAL please read!!!! I've been doing the 12 days of Deb and Brian I'm on day 9 and 10 and now I need something from ALL of YOU!!!!!

IT'S A CHALLENGE!!!! I challenge YOU, to tell me WHAT you think CaringBridge is? What it MEANS to you?!

I'll start....

OK so in the literal sense:
Caring- feeling and exhibiting concern and empathy for others; "caring friends"
Bridge- a structure that allows people or vehicles to cross an obstacle

Holy smokes so Caring bridge is the structure for families who are experiencing the hardest (in my opinion) obstacles in their lives!

And the guestbook here is the CARING part! Going to a caring bridge page and reading and learning about these wonderful heroic people is wonderful, it's great that you take time out of your life to learn about these loved ones, But it is also important to cross that BRIDGE!!

Maybe you don't know what to write, but trust me when I say, if you just put your name, that will show someone you care! You can even go back to your younger days and put "I was here" remember doing that on dirty car windows! heehee!

Anyway, although I used the literal definitions, it really does make sense to me!!

SO THIS IS MY CHALLENGE TO YOU!!! I DARE YOU TO TELL US WHAT CARINGBRIDGE MEANS TO YOU OR WHAT YOU THINK IT MEANS TO DEB, BRIAN AND ANGEL KATELYN and all the other families out there for that matter!

Thank you for your time, and for your space DEB!!

love you, Christine

Deb,
Congratulations on that four years without smoking! What an accomplishment. I'm sorry that the turning of the new year brings so much sadness, though, as you contemplate what it means. There's just no way around the grief sometimes, is there? We're all sorry that you have to go through this process, and we wish that we had magic words to ease it.

Hey Deb, I mailed you a Christmas card but it got returned to me - just today! That took a long time. I'm sorry you never got it. I would like to resend it if you want, it has a picture of Emily and Jacob. Can you please email me your full mailing address again? It says I put an incomplete address. ((Hugs)) to you!! I want to write more but Emily's still in the hospital and I need to get some sleep.

Hey Deb, me again, just read Hannah's book. Yep, I was born and raised in Sudbury, (now living in Saskatoon) and know the Lougheed name very well. They're an amazing family who have done a lot of good for the community!! Pretty neat that we know someone in common. Small world. I have friends down your way as well. I have friends in Kingsville, Leamington and Ruthven. It really is a small world.

Okay, let's get 'er done! lol I love that line!

Not sure this will be in list form! Deb is used to my rambling and can sometimes make sense of it, after explaining it again! So I will try to stay on track! lol

I would like to Explain parts of Deb to you by, not a sister's point of view, but a friends point of view or how I see her anyway...

Deb is funny, quirky, trusting, open, honest, generous, strong, heroic, (which she'll deny but I won't let her), a not so good speller just like me, likes road trips, is not perfect because she is also human!!

I have never in my life met someone who I can be so honestly open with and she listens! I used to warn her, can I ask you something? lol Sure go ahead she would say...and now, geez all I say is "just let me say something.".., "you know what?!" And I'm honest with her!

One night when I was on the computer, my Dad Im'd me just to say goodnight, as always I was talking to Deb, so I thought "aww that is so sweet, I should tell Deb" Oh wait a minute, maybe it will make her sad and miss her Dad and I don't want to do that to her...." Well you know I told her and then proceeded to tell her why I almost didn't tell her! She was glad I had told her....

Anyway, I realize I haven't known Deb and Brian for that long but I do believe we ere meant to find each other! There were too many things in common to have not found each other!

So everyday I am grateful because I know Deb is there!

Katelyn's website is an absolutely bootiful tribute to your daughter Deb, you pour your heart out to strangers, & share your love & pride for Katelyn. You are such a good person, you have so many friends that you are there for always, it takes forever to sign all the caringbridge sites you visit, & what sets you apart from others is the fact that you really do care so much about all your friends big & small, & you are always there to support them when they need you! i wish i lived closer to you, but im glad you have Brian, Your Mum, Bonnie, & Connie, & Christine there. & i'm always here for you if u ever wanna ramble on about every, & anything even though i'm far away!

Day 6 and 7

Okay can I just say, I really can't think about anything else, because the kids go back to school tomorrow...after 2 weeks.....aww I am so happy in my world right now!

You have introduced me to sentimental gardening, paying tribute to a loved one through hard labor! And it is hard, any gardener will attest to that, right Bonnie!

You have given Sarah a beautiful angel and guardian! I have heard her talking to Katelyn on more then one occasion and let me tell you we are so grateful for the support during harder times!

You are my friend, someone who understands me, someone who thinks like I do, okay so that part is scary, but we deal! lol

Did I mention the kids go back to school tomorrow! ahh life is good!

love you guys,

Just coming by for a visit and to wish you a Happy New Year. I love what you have done with Katelyn's site...the picture of her with her pony tails is absolutely adorable!!! Thank you for posting the poem on bereaved parents what a great teaching tool. Congrats on the smoking thing..I know first hand how hard it is to quit!...what a GREAT accomplishment! I'm just sorry I can't visit more often....but when I do your precious angel always puts such a smile on my face which is hard to believe because I can't even see through the tears...I truly wish you and your family a happy 2006. ~ Dawn

If you are a return visitor to this Webpage, You have been touched by Little Miss Katelyn. Most of you then know, what kind of people Deb and Brian are! The hard work and dedication that goes into this page is unbelievable! And Don't think because Brian doesn't sign the page that he is not involved! If Deb would let him get the computer once in awhile, I'm sure he would leave a note!

They have taught me to enjoy every moment with my children and to pick my battles with them! So what's wrong with a cookie for breakfast once in awhile! lol

So anyone from my family can tell you that purple has been my all time favorite color, heck even my In-Laws know that! ;0) anyways....

Thanks to my wonderful Newman/Laforet family or Brian have you taken on the Newman name yet, I have been introduced to the Wonderful World of.....

Purple Butterflies, Purple Flowers (did I mention they were suppose to be pink) And Purple Feathers!

My Children, oh my goodness, my Kids will take a couple days! How do I explain what you have opened up in my Children! A doorway to Heaven, a Window to EMPATHY "feeling of concern and understanding for another's situation or feelings. Also, an emotional feeling of identification or understanding of a work of art."

And you my Friends, for my Children, have opened your home and your hearts! I am so grateful you have become part of their lives! Because you know, A friend is a friend, but a friend you can share with your children is family!!

Happy New Year, Deb! It seems strange to type such a glib greeting on this page, but I really mean it.

Even before you mentioned how good Katelyn was feeling on New Years' last year, I was noticing in the pictures that she looked as if she was doing well and enjoying herself, with her crown looking as if it suited her. I'm glad to took so many pictures of such events to have for yourself and to share with us.

I was just reading your update and I'm glad you had so much support at the hospital. You have met many new friends along the way and I am so happy they could be there for you through Katelyn's life.
I know how much you depended on each other and you consider all of these people part of your family. Nothing is more important than family and friends you can count on.
You are very lucky that Katelyn charmed so many friends for you.

I love Katelyn's snowman, only Connie could come up with that idea.

I surfed on into Angel Katelyn's site from your signature in a guestbook. I'm so glad I did. I'm glad to see Princess Puffy Cheeks, she's adorable beyond words.

Today is our son Kyle's birthday, he would have been 17, died when he was 25 days old. So from one mom's heart to another, many hugs, much love and prayers for 2006 to bring you many blessings.

Deb and Brian, thank you for everything! We were honored to spend New Year's with you both! Brian this goes for you too, but I know you will understand why I direct this towards Deb....Now Deb.....get ready Martha here it comes....

I am so honored that Katelyn Brought you into my life, or me into yours or however she did it, umm Bonnie's first I guess! lol You have taught me so much about Love and devotion and about being human! We all know that the definition of "normal" is different for every family, common what does normal mean anyway! lol

What you have taught me has helped me become a better person! Yes, Sometimes I don't know what to say, but you have taught me that that is okay! I will sit and wait and stand beside/behind you for support, with my mouth shut!

You have taught me, that heck, I'm a pretty cool chick, cause if you are willing to hang with me....lol, it's either that or I'm the only one up that late!

Anyway This is just a little note that I wanted everyone to see, you know I can get way mushier but hey it's only monday.....

Love you guys! {{{HUGS}}} for you Deb and a firm handshake for Brian! lol

Christine

By the way, I know that 2006 will bring you both great wonderful things, Don't ask me how, but I do.....

I was just reading the poem about bereaved parents.
Sometimes it is hard to know the right thing to say or knowing there isn't a right thing to say, not saying anything hurts and saying the wrong thing hurts.
I can't even begin to understand your pain and I wish there was more I can do, but always understand no matter what, I will always be there for you and Brian.
You can always count on your friends and family no matter how frustrating life gets.
I especially like the last paragraph on the poem, because I have wanted to hit several people that have said that same thing and I'm surprised you haven't.
Even though we may not say or do the right thing we will
Love you's always
Bonnie

Happy New Years, my friends!
This holiday has special meaning to me as we were able to spend it with you and Katelyn last New Years at Sick Kids. Last night I was watching the fireworks at City Hall on TV and was remembering watching them from out the window on 7C. I thought of calling you when the clock struck but I decided against it and really hoped that you were out partying instead of sitting at home-like me. LOL

You know what was really amazing to me this year...as Gerry and I did the countdown and kissed the new year in, I recollected on the year and commented that it was a GOOD year!? Gerry said, "Well it wasn't a good year but it wasn't a bad year." I corrected him and said , "No it was a good year...think of all the wonderful things that happened." Who woulda thought eh? that we could consider the trials of this life to be good. That's a perspective that only people with special little ones like ours could have, given the trying circumstances.
I know 2006 is starting with a different outlook for you. I really do wish you peace and happiness. You're doing such a wonderful job adjusting to your lives yet keeping the memory of Katelyn alive and well.
You really are my heroes and I depend on you for more than you know.
All my love,
Kelly and Kirkie xoxoxoxo

I love the pictures of the Squirt in her red dress ,these are pictures I hadn't seen before,And I just love those piggy tails.
The bereaved list was very touching,gives us a clue on what you and Brian are feeling and going thru.

Hi Deb and Brian

Love those pictures, I was going to write they are my favourite but you hear that about all the pictures!

I am really disappointed that I didn't take Makyla out to Aunt Marg's and Uncle Dennis's now!
That is a beautiful memorial for the Boo and they really do such a wonderful job of their yard.
Maybe tonight would be a good night to go...........Better late than never!

Have a Happy New Year!

Deb & Brian,

I came across your precious daughter's web page through another caringbridge site, from a link through another friend... little Katelyn's smile melted my heart and I have spent the last three hours reading your journal, from the beginning, and I just have to express my deepest condolences for the loss of your beautiful girl. Not only that, I am inspired by your strength and unending faith, your spirit and most of all, the truest example of a mother and father's love and what it means to be a parent of a child. I am a mother too, I have a 22 month old son and I am going to hug him a little longer when he wakes up tomorrow morning, and I am going to spend every minute appreciating his life and the gift of his love. Sweet Katelyn must be watching over you so proud of her mommy and daddy, keeping her spirit alive the way you do each day. May peace be with you always, much love...

You had quite the year, i'm sorry for what you have been through, & i look up to you for all your strength, & the way you have stuck together, when i would imagine alot of days were very hard on you both. March will mark one year without Katelyn, but she is with you everyday, not many kids have parents like you, who love them soooo much, you are so proud of your boo, & it makes me smile hearing you talk about her with such pride! She is a lucky lil angel puffy cheeks. i wish i could have met her. it's a new year, & i hope this year brings you lot's of happiness!
i had some mail from an angel this week, thanks Katie!

It is so cool that Connie made a snowman at the cemetary. She was saying people were looking at her strange but how many people do you know that go to a cemetary to make a snowman?
Dad and Boo were probably busting a gut laughing....Just like the Old show "Candid Camera" where they tape peoples reactions to different situations...

Yes I had fun making a miss snowman with Boo (while dad was laughing).
But I have to tell everyone when I was looking in my car for snowman accesories.Lo & Behold on the floor was a purple ribbon.And where did it come from ??????Only the Squirt will know .One of her many little surprise's.
I was doing ok until I seen that purple ribbon.Then I knew we where really doing the snow thing together.& I could just see Boo looking down & thinking "quit crying this is suppose to be fun"

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday.

I found this site through a mutual friend of ours, Karen Spenner. What a beautiful girl Katelyn is!! I cannot imagine losing a precious little daughter. Christmas is always such a painful time for those who have lost loved ones, but somehow I hope Christmas was a time to reflect on the many memories that you obviously made during her short little life. What a blessing she must have brought to your family during that time. May the new year bring you and your family blessings beyond what you can ever imagine.....blessings of which you are so deserving of!
God bless! Sincerely, Cindy Mathies

Deb and Brian,
NOt much to say is there... Im sorta glad that xmas is all over with now. We had many many tears and moments of missing Jacob, as Im sure you all did for Katelyn as well. I know thats about all I have to say and you will understand.
I cant thank you enough for being there always. MIss you guys tons. Thanks for announcing our engagement here!
I sure miss our kiddoes.
Hope you managed to get through the holiday hustle and Katelyn was close to you.
Lots of love and prayers for you all over the next few weeks.
This is the hardest time for me so far I think. I cant ever have a better xmas and new year then we did last year. The best pics of us all together by far.
I know that they are up in heaven and celebrating Jesus' birthday and having a blast!!! Wish I coulda seen that Christmas tree!

Merry Christmas from the Kilbride's:
Hope you were able to spend some quiet moments with Katelyn today in amongst the hustle and bustle of your family's gathering. I've thought of you a lot over the past few days and I'm so thankful to have you 'three' in my life to teach me that everything will be okay and I'll get through it too! I know God sent you into our lives particularly for that purpose and for that I give thanks!
Given the wonderful family and friends with which you've been blessed, I know you've been able to find merriment today. How could you not after having inherited that fun and uplifting attitude from a silly dad who wears homemade wigs made of other people's hair! LOL I know you've had fond reminiscences today of all his antics and I hope that your memories of him and Katelyn brought joy to your family.
Kirkland sends his love. He had a great day and was totally spoiled. His brothers gave him lots of attention and opened his presents with him. It was very sweet. I'll call you in a couple of days when the visiting etc. settles down. Until then...
Sleep tight!

Merry Christmas

I was thinking about last Christmas, how we were all hoping you's would make it home for the holidays. As we were at the hospital with dad and he was so sick and in alot of pain, he was missing you's so much.
When we suggested putting on the wood shoes he thought it was such a great idea. He was in alot of pain and I remember asking him if we should do it another day.
He quickly said NO, we have to make to make them smile because they are not with us today.
I don't know if you realized how hard it was for dad to sit up in that bed and show his pearly whites but he certainly found the strength knowing how it would make you laugh.

Have a wonderful holiday and keep all those special moments in your heart, The Boo will help you through this holiday season with all your wonderful memories....you may even find yourself smiling!
Love ya Lots

Hi Everyone,
Boy o'boy! What a busy little elf you've been Deb! I know this seems late but I still need to tell you how moved I was by Katelyn's site when I clicked on it a couple of weeks ago and you had it all done up for Christmas. I was giddy as I scrolled down the page anticipating what would pop up next. It really brightened up my day and I felt so lucky to have spent last holiday season with your family at Sick Kids! See, it doesn't really matter where you are for the holidays...it's the people who count!
We did receive your package in the mail the other day. It was sooooo appropriate and made me cry. That daughter of yours has a way of infiltrating everything in our lives, doesn't she? Thank you so much for sharing in our Christmas despite the miles between us! Your love and friendship have brought so much to our lives and I feel so blessed to know ALL OF YOU's down there who are now part of our extended family. We have so many more loved ones in our world because of you and we feel so lucky. xoxo
Oh, by the way...have you had a look at those angel cheek dimples that landed on Kirk's page? If so, are you able to provide any clues to the mystery?
Happy Holidays to Everyone. We love you!

Christmas Without You

The lights are blinking merrily
The tinsel’s on the tree
It sits there in the window
For all the world to see.

The house is filled with holly
And pinecone scents the air
The Christmas cards keep coming
Each one is hung with care.

The gifts are tied with ribbons red
And topped with pretty bows
I’m done with all the details
As far as Christmas goes.

The fire is softly glowing
I think about your touch
But Christmas isn’t Christmas
I miss you oh, so much.

If I could have just anything
My Christmas wish would be
To wake up in the morning
And find you here with me.

Staring at your picture
I long to be set free
Tonight the tears are streaming
As I hold it next to me.

Flakes of snow swirl through the air
I’m braced for stormy weather
I wait for brighter days ahead
When we can be together.

So hold a place in heaven
Someday when life is through
I’ll be the Christmas angel
Who shares this day with you.

Hi Deb,
It has been awhile since I've stopped by. It has been so crazy busy around here but thankfully going pretty well. Thanks for stopping by and signing Kevin's page...we always appreciate that. I wish you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I know it must be hard at times missing your angel. But just think about the celebration in Heaven she is taking part in. I hope thoughts like that can bring you some joy this Christmas. Take care and God bless you.

Deb,Brian, and Katelyn
LOL...you are great Deb. You are right. Christmas will still be awful tough as we will miss Jacob dearly but looking forward to spending a lifetime with Ange, Alyssa, and Kyle is DEFINATELY exciting. It would be perfect if Jacob was with us, and yes, he did have a hand in all of this for sure. We check your site as often as you do Jacob's and really are amazed at how much you do. We'll have to get together down the road and catch up...we miss seeing you and although they were not under the best circumstances at Sick Kids you always put a smile on our faces. Take care for now...thanks for all the warm wishes on our engagement...it is greatly appreciated. Katelyn... keep a good watch over mommy and daddy... we know how hard our first Christmas without you and Jacob are going to be, but we can smile at the though of you running hand in hand through the fields of Heaven. Take care.

Dear Deb and Family,

Deb you have been coming to my daughter Daisy's website for a bit now, and I just wanted to let you know how much of a wonderful person you are. I always look forward to the next neat image or picture we will get with your messages, you are not only an angel's mother but I think you yourself are an angel. May your holidays be as merry as ever. And thankyou for caring.

Plus, we have had the added bonus of meeting some of Katelyn's friends, like Kirkie who is so dear to our hearts now. Thank you. I see Katelyn's hand in so many things that you do.

Thanks for getting my Birthday on the right date, I must really be special!

I wasn't sure if I should laugh or cry when I read the update that reminded me of last year.
I will always remember that special birthday surprise last year when you brought Katelyn in to see me, it was a really big surprise since I thought you were still in Toronto.
The 2 guys at work still talk about that day because seeing the look on my face brought tears to thier eyes and they even admit it!
To complete the day the look of surprise on dad's face laying in that hospital bed was so precious.
It would be so wonderful to change the clocks back a year and savor that moment...
Since that is not possible we have to cherish the memories we have and make sure we don't take those special days for granted because one day, those ordinary days will be the most precious treasures we have.
Bonnie

Ps I think my little girl was stopping by to wish me a Happy Birthday because when i went to the garage two doves flew out from behind the shrub and landed on the ground. Thanks for the surprise Katelyn but I think you have given the meaning of SURPRISE a new meaning!
I love and miss you so much but when those birds scared the crap out of me, I just knew you were here!
Love Aunt Bonnie

Christmas Time

It's Christmas time my family,
Yes, it's that time of year.
I'm not sure what it's like done there,
but it's heavenly up here.

There's lots of toys and lots of games.
A cake and presents too.
There's only one thing missing,
And that one thing is you.

But please don't cry my mummy,
Don't fret my daddy please.
Your present will still reach me,
On this lovely Christmas eve.

Cause I have a great big stocking,
Which is hung beside my bed.
The angels made it for me,
And it's beautiful velvet red.

And if, while you are sleeping,
You feel a touch upon your cheek,
Or maybe a gentle breeze blow by,
It is an angel, so do not weep.

Any thoughts you have for me,
Or messages of love,
The angels will collect them from you,
And bring them up above.

They will put them in my stocking,
When I am fast asleep.
And when I wake on Christmas morn,
I'll have them all to keep.

And so my precious family,
As you can plainly see,
Anything you want to say,
The angels will bring to me.

I know that it is hard for you,
To be happy when your heart is broke.
With a tear stained hanky on your lap,
And a great big lump in your throat.

But remember why we celebrate Christmas,
Remember the birth of Christ.
For it is because of him
I have eternal life.

Hi there! The website looks so beautiful!!! I LOVE the pictures of Katelyn at Christmastime. How precious! The poems are beautiful as well. Just want you to know I was thinking of you, as usual! And, of course, keeping you in our prayers. I think of Angel Katelyn lots...sometimes Emma stares off & smiles or giggles, seemingly at nothing. She's done this forever...I used to say she saw the baby angels. Now, when I see her do it, I picture Katelyn with her adorable smile watching over our Emma. Thank you for signing our guestbook. I'm going to go visit the special page you made now. Take care. (((HUGS)))

Hi Deb!

Caringbridge is such a neat organization! Through these websites we learn about and come to care about so many different people struggling through so many different things! You are such a neat person! I am so happy that I ran across your cb site! I just wanted to let you know that my heart goes out to you and your husband during this holiday season and my prayers are with you! I am POSITIVE that Katelyn is so proud of you and is watching over you always!

I found this poem that I would like to share with you and a few other cb families that are also going through their first holiday season without their loved one! I think its beautiful and think you will like it!

Hugs and Best wishes always!

I give you this one thought to keep –
I am with you still I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you awaken in the morning’s hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush

of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not think of me as gone –
I am with you still – in each new dawn.

Deb...you know for me not to send Brandon to school I've come a long way..hehehe he's loving it!! HAHA. Have a great day everyone, stay warm and safe....

Thanks Deb, for doing the pictures for me! lol and Thanks Bonnie!

Bonnie mentioned our Christmas tree down below, well it is most definately an original! a Katelyn original....

I've procrastinated putting up my tree, Due to things, the holiday mood has eluded us, anyway I drudged down to oour old farm house basement...ick... lol and brought up my tree in 3 pieces! First I brought up the top and middle, no Problem, my husband Rob was waiting at the top of the stairs to lay them in the living room, this is where Katelyn comes in! lol

I went down to get the bottom piece, what do I find, a purple feather, so I look around, wondering what kind of purple feathers I have down there, and I have NONE, nothing in the basement or my house has purple feathers! I started giggling!

As I got to the top of the stairs, Rob asked me what was so funny, I said look at this tree, what do you see, He says a purple feather, all I said was yeah, he looked at me and plainly said "Katelyn" lol

Now this is a man who is not comfortable with how do I say this tactfully....umm..heavenly messages, yeah that sounds right! lol anyway I think he may be getting used to Our Little Miss. I mean what choice did the poor guy have! lol

So needless to say, I got out the camera to show Deb, and I left it on the tree! I drew a heart around it on the picture!

Angel Tears at Christmas

God sends His lovely angel tears
To us this time of year
They float and tumble through the air
And send out Christmas cheer.

Each flake He sends is special
From out of wintry skies
They paint a pretty picture
To soothe our weary eyes.

They glide and twirl as if to say
The season's just begun
And gently beckon to us
To join in merry fun.

Like sparkling gems, they fill the sky
And quietly take up space
They seem to flow in harmony
Attired in angel lace.

At Christmas time when all is calm
We look to things above
For angel tears and Christmas
To fill our lives with love.

A sacred star shines in the East
As Christmas day draws near
A manger scene, a Holy night
And gentle angel tears.

The children gather 'round the tree
To hear the Christmas story
As angel tears fall to the earth
To trim the earth in glory.

His precious tears drift to the earth
So everyone will know
A child was born in Bethlehem
It's written in the snow.

So if you get to feeling blue
And plagued by worldly fears
Just look outside your window
God's shedding angel tears.

Hi Deb!

I've been busy with finals (done after the 12th) but thought I'd pop in to see how everything is going. Nice holiday setup you have at your house! The tree lighting ceremony is a wonderful idea to honor loved ones who are no longer here. I also like the poem that Brenda posted. Very fitting.

I hope all is well with you and think of you often! Take care!!

How nice that your mother donated money so that Katelyn's name could be read, too. This season must be tough, but I hope that knowing that many of us think of your wonderful daughter helps console you. My granddaughter Emmi has been sick and has needed a trip to the hospital to maintain her glucose levels, always diving when any illness disturbs her metabolism, but I remember how many days Katelyn and others spent in the hospital and am grateful she got to come home so quickly.

My First Christmas in Heaven

I see the countless Christmas trees,
Around the world below,
With tiny lights like Heaven’s stars
Reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular,
Please wipe away that tear,
For I’m spending Christmas,
With Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs,
That people hold so dear,
But the sounds of music don’t compare,
With the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you,
The joy their voices bring,
For it is beyond description,
To hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart,
But I am not so far away,
We really aren’t apart.
So be happy for me, dear ones,
You know I hold you dear
And be glad I’m spending Christmas,
With Jesus Christ this year.
I send you each a special gift,
From the heavenly home above,
I send you each a memory,
Of my undying love.
After all “Love” is a gift,
More precious than pure gold,
It was always most important,
In the stories Jesus told.
Please love and keep each other,
As my heavenly father said to do,
For I can’t count the blessings of love,
He has for each of you.
So have a Merry Christmas,
And wipe away that tear,
Remember, I’m spending Christmas,
With Jesus Christ this year.

What fun my kids would have running around your lawn looking at everything!
Plus, I'm anxious to see the grave blanket...I've never seen one before. It looks really sweet from what I can tell.

Have a good day. Thanks Katelyn for sending the Christmas spirit to Mommy and Daddy this year xo.

Hi Deb and Brian

You remember me telling you that at work I did up that gift bag with Katelyn's photo as a sample!
Today I was walking by the sample bag and I found a feather purple butterfly on the floor ( we did not have purple butterflies at work before because I needed one for her birthday and searched everywhere for one)
The butterfly is now part of the display and I am sure people wonder what a purple butterfly has to do with Christamas?

Hi Deb,
The pictures of Katelyn's garden are just beautiful!
I LOVE the angel. It is just perfect.
I love the snow on the purple flowers too.
We don't have any snow here. It will be about 70 degrees today! Wierd!
I will be keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers today. Just like everyday!

Hi Guys!
Boy...am I ever moved by the beauty of the angel in Katelyn's garden...especially the night picture with the snowflakes in the foreground. There's something 'so Katelyn' about it. I do think it would look beautiful all year round. White lights in summer are so soothing, don't you find?
I'm so happy that your mom tested negative for breast cancer, Deb. What a wonderful Christmas present for all of you! That's 3 cases of negative biopsies in my world..oh but for the power of prayer.
BTW, I'll take four bracelets and will send you the money today.

Well, not much other news here. We've enjoyed the first snowfall and it's brought some much needed Christmas spirit to our house. Believe it or not, the tree's up and most of the house is decorated. It's too early for me but I guess memories of last year plague me and I really want to make it nice for us all this year. Most of my shopping's done too! And now Kirk and I are working on his Christmas presents to send out. That's fun! Last year we made them in Sick Kids.
Well...I should skidaddle. The boys are late rising and our busy morning is about to take force!
Talk with you soon.
Love you,

Angel Children
Over the moon on a ster far away our Angel Children
think of us every singel day,
With Golden Halos and fluffly white wings
They sit in circles and play on harp stings
The love they beam down to this earthly place
It glows and reflects in each dear angels face
So you feel a soft wind or a feather like touch
When you remember that you love them so very much
It is their love for us they send on a genle breeze
Helping our heartbreak and sorrow to ease
Life is a burden we all must carry with good and bad
Remember your angels and all the good times you had.

I'm so glad that your mother's news is encouraging so far. I'm a 15-year cancer survivor, and I know how scary anything a little unusual can be in those first years. I'm sorry that you're having to go through that scare, but that advice given to you to not worry until you're told to worry sounds like great advice. It's just terribly hard to follow, isn't it?

Hi Guys
I love the angel in your garden. It is so big!! It looks so nice at night. That is also sooo great about the CDG bracelets. I will get one for Tayler and myself. I will send you an email Deb. Maybe I can send you an email money transfer if you do online banking. That would be an easy way to get the money to you. Thanks for the birthday wishes for Tayler. I cannot believe he is 11. I can;'t believe you still have flowers hanging around. I am also so happy to hear about the test results. Take care you guys

Hey Deb, I just stopped by to look at pictures of Princess Puffy Cheeks. I love the picture you entered in the costume contest. Katelyn was such a beautiful girl. :) I was just thinking of you the other day ... I finally unpacked the box that had the catheter holder things in it, from our move. Those things are SO helpful! Especially now that Emily has a double lumen Broviac. One line is always hooked to TPN, but the other line is always loose. Those clips work perfectly for keeping it out of her hands. :) I hope you have a good Thanksgiving ... and know that I was thinking of you. :)

I'm sorry about my poor english, but I waish you know that I can imagine how happy your doughter was... because my soon, Leo, was the most happy baby I ever met. God bless you and your family!

You are probably just going to bed. Maybe you finally fell asleep early since you have been working your butt off helping mom redo her house.

Hi guys,
Just popping by to say hi. Don't you dare feel bad for not checkin into Kirk's guestbook, Deb. I'm glad you're keeping yourself busy! I'm the guilty one...neglecting you and all the other families. Hopefully I'll have more free time now. I'm celebrating tonight 'cause I finished my last thank you card today! YIPPEE! I don't think I even wrote this much when I was back in university LOL. Right now I don't want to even look at a pen.
I must admit...despite the yucky cold, the snow here has started to bring out the Christmas spirit in me. I haven't had any since my dad died in Dec. 2001. It's very welcome to enter our home- that's for sure.
My Christmas shopping is well under way and we plan to put the tree up next weekend. It's too early for me but I want to do it all while the going's good. Last year was a nightmare because we were hospitalized most of November and December. This year I want to be proactive so we can relax a little and enjoy the Christmas season, God willing. Please pray that things remain stable over the holidays??!
I'm taking my brother-in-law Keith to the psychic tomorrow. I'll be sure to ask if she has any messages from a little purple butterfly.
Have a good weekend and don't work too hard. Give our love to everyone.

Hi Deb!

Nurse Jody's sister Deana here... Jody sent me the link to vote for Katelyn but I was unable to because of an unsupporting e-mail program... No Outlook Express or something like that... But I really would have voted for her!!

I have been meaning to send you this poem for some time now... No time like this moment... It is quite beautiful & brings tears to my eyes every time I have read it... I might have sent it to Jody before & perhaps she may have passed it along?? Anyways here it is... I am sure you have kleenex handy...

Love & Prayers,

Deana


What Makes a Mother

I thought of you and closed my eyes
And prayed to God today.
I asked what makes a Mother
And I know I heard him say...

A mother has a baby
This we know is true.
But, God, can you be a mother
when your baby is not with you?

Yes, you can He replied,
With confidence in His voice.
I give many women babies
When they leave is not their choice.

Some I send for a lifetime,
And others just for a day.
And some I send to feel your womb,
But there's no need to stay.

I just don't understand this God,
I want my baby here.
He took a breath and cleared His throat
And then I saw a tear.

I wish I could show you
What your child is doing today.
If you could see your child smile
With other children and say:

"We go to earth to learn our lessons
Of love and life and fear.
My mommy loved Oh so much
I got to come straight here.

I feel so lucky to have a mom
Who has so much love for me.
I learned my lessons very quickly,
My mommy set me free.

I miss my mommy Oh so much,
But I visit every day.
When she goes to sleep
On her pillow is where I lay.

I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek
And I whisper in her ear.
Mommy don't be sad today,
I'm your baby and I'm here."

So, you see my dear sweet one,
Your children are not blue.
Your babies are here in MY home,
They'll be at Heaven's gate waiting for you.

So now you see what makes a mother,
It's the feeling in your heart.
It's the love you had so much of,
Right from the very start.

Though some on earth may not realize you are a mother,
Until their time is done.
They'll be up here with Me one day,
And they'll know you were the best one!

I will certainly keep that family member facing surgery in my thoughts and prayers.

I love the new pictures, especially the Christmas ones of Katelyn and those of her with the goldens. My first golden adopted our oldest grandchild as her puppy, and used to stick her nose under Jill's tummy to support her when she first got up on hands and knees. Our current golden thinks our grandchildren are all his puppy mates, and is sometimes a bit too rough with Emmi, who has balance problems, but our lab mix makes up for it, letting Emmi cuddle him much as Katelyn was cuddled with your golden. I'm sure Katelyn's life was enriched by her contact with these animal friends, too. I'm glad she had some times at home with family and friends . . . and dogs!

Just a note from me to tell you I voted for Katelyn as the best costume. My heart goes out to you, my friends. Your little angel Katelyn is a true angel now.
I know that you have a true friend in Jody...what a wonderful nurse and friend!

Hi Deb! Does Brian ever look at these entries? I don't want to neglect him! Hope all is well. Besides the aquarium... does Brian have any woodworking plans on the go?

Hi Deb,
Just checking in!
Sounds like you all have been busy too eh?
I just love coming to Katelyns website.
I know exactly what you mean about the ones that stand by you and keep coming back. I feel honored to be able to have as many internet friends as I do. I sure wish some of you lived closer so we could really sit down and have a good cry over some tea, or just watch videos and hug and all that stuff ;)
So I should be thanking you! So Thank You for always being near and dear to my heart.
I hope everythings ok... we too are having the most unfortunate luck lately. These past two weeks have really tested me thats for sure.
Hey if it were not for bad luck.. it seems many of us wouldnt have any at all right? lol Its gotta get up soon!!!
Hope your all ok and will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
Hugs

Hey, love the story about Jason! He sounds like a sweetie (heh heh). Let's just hope he doesn't make us wait another 3 months to hear that laugh again (he has a very discerning sense of humour).

good Morning!

Deb, What an amazing email! And what wonderful parents Jason must have to give him the oppportunity to try ABR! I find it amazing that there is "something" that may help improve his life! That sounds weird with all the research out there, but that there may actually be something! Wow what wonderful breakthroughs for all families whos children have CP! Kudos to his Family!

Sorry its been so long since I have signed in. I still take a peek at the site everyday at work on my lunch. I even have people at work that come in my office at lunch to see what is new with you guys.
I am heading to Niagara Falls this morning as my Sister-in-law is there for a conference and I am going to go stay with her until she leaves Wednesday... I am very excited as I haven't seen any of my family since last summer. It will be great to catch up on all the news back home.
Love the fish..Be careful cause your cats might love them too.......Ha Ha.. I must need glasses also as I don't see a castle.
Hope everyone has a great day!!!

49,713...sheesh....that means by tomorrow morning when I sign in, the counter will be over the 50,000.

Hope everything is great with you and Brian. Lucas has amazingly left the fire engine intact. Sometimes he stares at it for long stretches, but he never tries to get it out. Talk about will power.
Anyway, thought I'd take my own medicine tonight, and sign my favourite guestbooks...boy does it feel good to do that!!! I really need to do it more often.

Helloooooo!
Glad you're keeping busy guys! Things are crazy here as usual. I see Kirk's been busy visiting Brandon's webpage. That daughter of yours sure got him hooked on the internet, didn't she! Every time I turn around he's begging to go on line. LOL
Have a good weekend everyone! It's nice to see Christine in person. Now she's a Katelyn groupie too and can have her 'claim-to-fame'!
Bye!

Hi Deb,
I’m Justina’s grandma and I just dropped by to check out your web page – what a wonderful memorial to a beautiful Angel. This is not the first time I’ve seen your page – the first time was when Justina emailed a link to me because she wanted me to read about the cute little baby she met in the hospital. From their first meeting, Katelyn made a huge impression on Justina and I truly believe that God planned it that way. Justina checked in on Katelyn’s progress daily and to this day carries pictures of Katelyn wherever she goes. When Justina wanted to learn how to scrapbook, it was no surprise to see that her first scrapbook was all about Katelyn. When she was taken by ambulance to London and found out she would be staying there for a while, the first item on her list of things she wanted from her house was her pictures of Katelyn. I’m so glad God blessed you with Angel Katelyn. Even though her time here was very short she has left her mark in this world and she will live on in the hearts of those she touched even those of us who never had the opportunity to meet her in person. Thank you for the love and encouragement you have shown Justina and thank you to Angel Katelyn for watching over Justina.

Hi Deb,
Just getting my Katelyn fix for the day!!! We have her picture up in Brandon's room here at Sick Kids but I love looking at all the pictures...makes me smile!!!
Haha..can't believe Brandon left you hanging last night eh? MSN kicked him off and he couldn't sign back in...he was having such a good time with you on-line (he should have been getting ready for bed lady!!! Haha). I so love that he knows you're there for him...he calls you his 2nd Mom...did you know that!!! Bet ya didn't! Don't worry Brian, you've always been considered the 2nd Dad!!!!
Thank you for the support my friends!!! Katelyn is very proud of you guys!!! She worked hard to teach you lol.
Have a great day!!

Good morning
Hope all is well with everyone.I don't think us people in Essex County have to much to complain about where the weather is concerned.We can still wear our spring coat's and don't have to go out and warm the car first thing in the morning.That is a good thing
Have a wonderful day.
Luv Conn

P.S.
I haven't been on for some time,My Hubby from year's on afternoon shift is on days (It's hard to ajust) and now i have to cook supper and do dish's and any one who know's me know's how I feel about doing dishes ,Ask my sister's!!! LOL
Ok, I'M done whineing now.BYE
