My Daughter, Tammy

[lorrie3]

I want to thank all of the members for their Prayers, and their good thoughts.
I do appreciate it very much.

Ginger, thanks so much for posting about my Daughter. Also Sunflower, I thank you too. What wonderful dear friends you are. I love you both.

Thanks to Lacey, Aryad, and Ronnie. I may have left someone out. I should have read the post again. If I did I am so sorry.
This has been something that I would never wish on my worst enemy, if I had one.

Harry and I loved our Tammy so much. We are both hurting. My family tells me that it will get better, but you will never ever forget it.
We still haven't got back the Autopsy on Tammy. It takes so long.
I know that there are so many others that have gone through even worse then this. I do understand that. I Just always believed that Harry and I would go before our Children. I still can't believe she is gone. She had called on May 31st to wish her Dad a Happy Birthday. She said she would call me on the 5th of June to wish me one too. She passed away June 2nd of this Month. The last words she said to me. Her Dad was in bed at 11:30pm. She said " Tell Daddy that I love him." I said of course I will. Then she said "I love you to Mommy." Those were her last words to me.
Thanks so very much again for your sweet words.
God Bless all of you
Dee (lorrie3)

Dee, I am thinking of you and Harry and sending you lots of thoughts and prayers.

Our hearts go out to you and your family Dee, We care about you sooo much... Noone should have to go through such a tragedy...
May the love and caring of friends and Family help you get through this...

Dear Dee. There isn't a day goes by when I don't think about your loss..For anyone who has ever lost a child (no matter what age) there is no loss greater.. Noone should have to bury their child ...
I loved the photos you sent me of her.. Would you like me to post a photo of Tammy on here ?? If it is too difficult I will understand .That is why I haven't so far as You have been grieving.. Maybe if some of our members could share their stories of "Loss" in their families it will help you and Harry to Heal...A light has flickered out in your lives and I can't imagine what the darkness is doing to you and your family..

Sunflower,
I Just got on the computer for the first time today.
I hadn't been on the site in a few days. I Just read this. Did I tell you that Tammy loved Butterflys? I bet I did.
That was Beautiful. She would have loved it.

We have been really down today. It is exactly two Months today that our Baby passed away.
If you want, you can post that Picture I sent you. One was taken four months ago now. I think the last one I sent you, I had said it was two months old. The picture that is, but two more months have passed. It is the most recent picture we have, except for the one I Just can't look at. You know. Maybe someday I can look at it.

Thanks so much for your Kindness, and everyone else that has said such nice things about our loss.
I am crying now, so it is hard to even type. I want you to know how I appreciate what all you have said and done. I know it will get better, but today was very sad for both of us.
Lots of love
Dee ( Harry too)

Hi Dee. I will go through a few photos and maybe post one or two of Tammy if you'd like.. Do you have any photos of her with you and Harry??I hope that some things are finally being addressed for you and your family and that you can put her to rest knowing you did all you could.. I am sure when you are alone that is the hardest. I know when my brother died that was hardest for me. I guess I did put a lot of my feelings in my poetry. I hope you liked the poems I sent you... Did you hear anything from Eric & Eliza??

[Sunflower]

Just adding a few photosof dee's daughter Tammy so one can put a face to her name.
Tammy as a young girl:

How pretty she was.I just had to post this one for Dee ..

[Sunflower]

These are photos I liked of Tammy

[Sunflower]

Dee I wasn't able to find that most recent one you sent me.. I can't remember if I was able to save it or not. I hope you approve of the ones I have chosen and it is not too hard for you to see them.. I enclose the poem I wrote in memory of her..

Our Butterfly

Wings spread out a bright yellow and blue
The love she shows us is all for you
She floats in the sunshine and morning dew
Our Butterfly
A flower she does land upon
Her colors bursting out in song
And today we can do no wrong
With Our Butterfly
The gentle breeze brings out a smile
As she sits and watches us awhile
This beautiful creature has so much style
Our Butterfly
It is such a beautiful day
You know she really wants to play
WE whisper softly"please stay"
But then she quickly flies away
Our beautiful little butterfly.
