I would lke to say thankyou to everyone from the bottom of our hearts for all your support,
especially on Bethy's Angel day for all the messages, thoughts, candles and Bethy's gifts.We have
found it tough going since 27 Oct, seemed like we were right at the begining again - too much going
on in too little time if you understand, too much going round and round, nothing making sense.But
our Bethy had her fun, the headstone and kerbset was laid the 11th November, I was shocked that it
actually made me smile and not cry, it is absolutely beautiful, apart from the shape of the stone it
is a 1 of all ready for Beth's 1st Angel Day. Beth had always wanted a yorkie pup , we kept saying
no, no more dogs, then after she passed felt so guilty we never brought her 1 about 2 hrs after the
stone had been laid there was a knock at the door, a neighbour from the avenue with a yorkie pup in
his arms, ours for Beths anniversary if we wanted him, completely free for Bethy, well we couldnt
say no, strangely he took to us straight away, if I didnt know better there is some of Beth in
there, just something about him, he's cheeky, mischievous and so funny, so Bethypie you got your
puppy.We took Bruce to see Beth on her Angel day and he was so good, sat proudly by her garden i'm
sure it's an omen - meant to be - Beth sent him to us to bring a little joy into our lives, thankyou
baby.
Again thankyou for all your support each and every one of you, godbless - with love always Deb &
family xx

4th November

I now hope to be back as normal, we have had Bethany's inquest, it was a 2 day inquest and after
much thought the coroner gave a Narrative verdict which in our opinion that is a very good verdict.
We are now seeking further legal advice as to the next steps we take.
Some of you may have seen the meda attention Bethany recieved of which as a family we were extremely
pleased with as for the legal issues we were bound to not sayng anything, we have now had our say ,
our side of the story but also found it daunting for the story to appear in most of the papers
nationwide. Between ourselves and our solicitor we agreed to do the press statement for ITV Central
news & absolutely astounded that our darling Angel got the exclusive of that nights news & summed it
up very well. We were also asked to take part in a chanel 4 documentary for Real Lives , we agreed
to help raise more awareness for ' Mother's Know Their Children Best' campaign in the hope that the
medical proffession DOES LISTEN TO MUM , the medics do get it wrong.
Please feel free to jon the following group -

August 20th
A very big thankyou to the Talk Angling Fishing Club whom are doing charity events to raise money
for Beth's Bench.

One of Bethany's favourite books is The Gruffalo, she read it at school unfortunatley we never
brought it for her, other favourite books are Flora's Blanket & Down by the Cool of the Pool, she
had these for years and we had to read them over & over again, bless she gave Alica a telling of
because she said Alicia was not reading it , she remembered it all, these books are now some of our
treasures.

Update - We have since Beth's passing that the cancer was not the cause of her passing, according to
specialists at Gt.Ormand St. whom have been called in by the coroner for Beth's case in their
statement they say the cancer was curable and that all notes relating to Bethany clearly indicate
there was a tracheal block & find it hard to believe that the hospital did not think of this and
scan Beth as there were clear signs something was wrong & right up to the point they ventilated her
she could have lived.
We have to live with the fact Beth should still be here and it's errors that she is not ,
consequently there is a case against the hospital for medical negligance leading to Beth's passing,
we intend to fight the case all the way for justice to Beth & to try and prevent this happening to
other families.The hospital since Beths passing have now or are in the process of changing the
procedure for those whom present to them as Beth did, a little too late for Beth but to her family
this shows an admittance that they did get it wrong.

There's nothing this side of heaven
That can compare to you
I can only hope god's garden
Is full of fun for you.

Bethy's hamster Sweep fell asleep this morning, she's gone to heaven to be with her mummy.

May 23rd 2009

You

You were our ray of sunshine
Our flowers in full bloom
You were a gift of nature
Like the craters on the moon
You were the springtime showers
Refreshing and oh so light
You were the stars up in the sky
Shining with all your pride
You were the rain that meets the sun
With such beauty for all to see
You were the colours of the rainbow
That stretch to heaven from earth
But most of all my darling Beth
You are my joy and pride.

May 18th 2009

Although you live in heaven
We will never be apart
You have a special place inside my broken heart.
When my heart stops beating
My soul will live again
For that's the eternal moment
That we will meet again

You're helping all of us.

Bethy - My Angel , my darling.
I can only assume you have given me a gift of creativity since you became an Angel , I have never
been so creative. I have written you some poems , dont know where they came from , apart fom knowing
you were right beside me while I was writing them.
So here they are Bethy , dedicated to you my Sweet Angel.
I have the copyright of these poems.

A Special Candle

I have a special candle
It’s just from me to you
It contains that special string
No one else can see
It must like the apron strings
That hold you close to me
I’ve wrapped your candle up with love
The one between you and me
Inside there is a little note
With words no one else can see
It has all our little secrets
The ones between you and me
They made us laugh they made us cry
They are there for all eternity
When I light your candle
It will remind me of your life
And how you came to be
The light within my life.
So you see it really is
Just from me to you
The light that connects us both
Until i’m back with you.

The Missing Piece?

We tried to be a family last night
We tried so very hard
We had a go at painting
A paint by colour flower
We came to paint the yellow colour
The pot had disappeared.
We tried to do a jigsaw
We tried so hard to smile
But when we got to the last piece
That too had disappeared
So we thought ah, a little game of cards
Might bring us a bit of cheer
We couldn’t finish our game
A card had gone astray
We said amongst ourselves
“What on earth is going on?”
Then we all remembered
No matter what we try
We are not a real family
THE MISSING PIECE IS YOU.
Copyright© Debbie Flowers 2009 dedicated to my beautiful daughter Beth.





The Greatest Gift

Never mind the roses,
Or the teddies that you brought.
The greatest gift I had from you,
Was the day that you were born.

I know you're now in heaven,
And cannot buy me gifts.
The best thing I can have from you,
Is your special Angel kiss.

I would trade in every gift,
That you have ever brought.
To go back in time again,
To the day that you were born.
Copyright© Debbie Flowers 2009 dedicated to my beautiful daughter Beth.


Heaven

From morning’s first light to evenings last star
Never forget how special you are
Now you’re an Angel in a heavenly realm
Where there is joy and there is laughter
You will never find pain.
Have fun up in heaven for all of you days
Climbing up rainbows and sliding back down
Jumping around the fluffy white clouds
Chasing flutterbyes and baby spring lambs
Smelling the flowers and dancing around.
Your earthly loss is a heavenly gain
Your feathers so white and very pristine
Your shiny new halo upon your blonde hair
Wear them with pride with your beautiful smile
As I look up to the heavens above
I will blow you a kiss all wrapped in my love
Catch and keep it as close as you can
You do the same from heaven to me
And this will be the tie till we meet again.

Godbless my darling, love you always.

To our very own Angel 'Bethypie'

Sent to mummy and daddy on loan from above, pure magic, a breath of fresh air, an Angel born without
her wings.
Beautiful & precious daughter of Debbie & Richard, baby sister to Rebekah, Alicia & Martin, dearly
loved grandaughter of Yvonne & James, John & Doreen, great grandaughter of Jean & Dennis, special
auntie to Chloe & Kaydon, much loved niece, cousin,friend, suddenly taken from us 16th November 2008
aged 10 years.
Beth went to Moat House Primary School , Coventry , she will be greatly missed , judging by the
memorial wall they have done for Beth nearly every single memo there says something about she was
always smiling and happy & how they will miss her so much.
Beth had only been poorly for just over 2 weeks , being treated for asthma/breathing difficulties.We
were sent to hospital 8 times 4 by ambulance , each time they sent Beth home 'nothing wrong',
finally she was admitted the night before she passed , they took her of all medication including the
inhaler she had been prescribed to keep the airways in her lungs open more - they said they wanted
to see how she went overnight.She woke on the sunday having breathing difficulties , by 10.30am she
had a respiritory attack
, boy did they move quick - tho not fast enough in the prior 2 weeks, she was taken to HD ward ,
bless my little Angel she was so brave, she wasn't there an hour before she needed IC & ventilating
, the xray Beth had on the friday night - yet another visit to A & E - that was alledgedly clear ,
sunday the very same xray was not clear to the trained eye.
From here on it was just a downward spiral , a complete nightmare , the hospital does not have a
child intensive care unit , they started to phone for beds the nearest 3 were full , the next one
available was 50 miles away , we had to wait 2 long hours for that hospital peadiatric IC team to
get to us to take Beth back , they couldn't use the air ambulance - their reason - it doesn't fly at
night!
The team got to Beth , I have to admit they fought long & hard to keep her alive , our ultimate
choice was given , we left her where she was & she died or we risked moving her & she had a chance -
50/50 - obviously we took the later it was worth a chance - but she was miraculously going to a
hospital alot nearer to us like , 30 miles away to try and get to a blood dialasis machine to try
and pump oxygen into her blood because her tubes in the lungs were so small they were not letting
the oxygen out.Beth was taken by police escort her ambulance sanwiched in between 2 police vehicles
whilst another sped ahead with all her medication and bloods, sadly Beth never made it very far from
us , she was too tired I guess.
Initially we thought Beth passed after a huge asthma attack, after her autopsey we found she had
cancer in her Trachea - hence the breathing difficulty.
She had a rare cancer called Sarcoma which apparently there is only 30 cases ever recorded of this
type of cancer and in the chest cavity - Beth may have been the first for the trachea - the doctors
sat at my table and told me and my husband Beth taught them something new - why did it have to be my
baby to teach doctors something new - why didnt they know already?
We are living with the nightmare of out beautiful baby passng away , then cancer on top , we learnt
just before christmas the coroner has decided to take Beth's case to magistrates court , we will now
have to go through it all again.
I hope they find and give us answers not that it will help.
Why oh why do these doctors not listen to the parents or children properly.

Beth you touched the hearts of so many lives and missed every minute of every day.
Bethy's funeral was Dec 2nd we couldn't do anything else for her so we gave her white horses &
carriage, the horses with pink plumes and coats she was walked past her school who had decorated the
gates and fences in big pink ribbons and bows - she would have loved it , the church was
overbriming.
Dec 8th Beth's school lit and let 11 sky candles of into the heavens in Beth's honour and to
celebrate her life - it was beautiful very emotional but touching.

We would like to thank everyone who has lit candles for Beth and all the help & support we have
recieved.
But still I wonder if only had the doctors listened would Beth have been a survivor - we will never
get the chance to know.

Godbless Angel , you brave brave little girl , I am so proud to call you my daughter.

If tears could build a stairway
And heartache a lane
We'd climb the path to heaven
And bring you home again.

She lives not here on Earth
But way up high
With her Angel wings she passes by
A gentle breeze to let us know
She's watching us on Earth below.

Beth you now have your wings as you so deserve.
Our hearts ache when we think of you
We long to hold you close
Your gentle kiss, your loving touch & Angel smile are the things we miss the most
Love you always & forever in our hearts, Godbless 'Bethypie'
Love, cuddles & big fat kisses
Mummy & daddy

DARLING DAUGHTER



She was so very, very special
And was so from the start
You held her in your arms
But mainly in your heart
And like a single drop of rain
That on still waters fall,
Her life did ripples make
And touched the lives of all.
She's gone to play with angels
In heaven up above
So keep your special memories
And treasure. them with love
Although your darling daughter
Was with you just a while
She'll live on in your heart
With a sweet remembered smile


THINKING OF YOU ON THIS SAD DAY,SENDING LOTS OF LOVE.

My Angel

My Angel alone is all I need,
She will help me through,
Lifting me up when I am down,
She knows just what to do.

My Angel alone is all I need,
Courage and strength she brings,
She is responsible,
For all these splendid things.

My Angel alone is all I need,
I long for her deep into the night,
I wait patiently to meet her,
And get her in my sight.

My Angel alone is all I need,
I know that she is mine,
Loving her is what I will do,
Till the end of time.

Mummy & daddy
