please follow this link to learn more about Group B strep-the infection that killed Jamie,knowledge may help you protect your own family:http://www.dhpe.org/infect/strepb.html
Jamie was born on the 4th November 2002-he came early,i was only 31 weeks pregnant.He was delivered at our local hospital but needed transferring because he needed specialist breathing equipment.We were settling down into a routine of visiting him at the hospital and then we had the horrible shock of being told that a brain scan had shown he had massive brain damage caused by an infection called Group B strep.
So Paul and i had to deal with the tragic loss of a much loved and wanted son.The devastation can never be understood.Why did this little soul never even have a chance?,there is so much i don't understand.
I would like Jamie to be remembered because he was one of us and his chance of growing up with Paul,me and his brothers was taken away from us.
we had to go to the hospital for scans, the weeks before jamies birth and to listen to his heart,through mary's womb fluids low,we seen this as a treat,as we were seeing him on the scan machine,some of the things he was upto were amazing,we and the people doing the scans,had a good laugh,he was a real character,we were wishing we could afford a scan machine so we could see him all the time,.
i talked to him through mary's stomache,all the time,they can recognise familiar voices and music,a lot earlier than his 30 weeks,.
an emergency section was performed,at 31and half weeks,they took him to scuba,but cos i was there when they operated,and seen mary in that state,i felt i needed to stay with her,jamie was fine,after completion,stitches etc,i raced round to scbu,it was a different scene altogether,there was docs, nurses,and they were hand pumping oxygen into jamie,they said he'd got a breathing problem,i was in shock ,they seemed pretty casual,but i was'nt,a few things bothered me,but one of the nurses pumping,complained about the pain it was causing her arms,i offered to do it,a kid could'v done it,she said ,no its o.k.
but i was thinking what you moaning about then,,i'm his dad you should'nt be saying this to me,.but i dare'nt say anything,.
for someone whose not been in that situation,they'd probably think i was paranoid,but i did'nt and still dont trust the staff at that hospital,all the way up to the consultant,after a while i went round to mary who was on a ward recovering,
i could'nt tell her,it was a big decision for me to make not telling her,but there was'nt anything she could do,i went back to scbu,he was no better,.back to the ward,several times i went back and forth,he was born 9 am,by tea time,iwas back on scbu and they told me they were taking him to a leeds hospital,some 40 to 50 miles away,for special breathing equipment.
the sister on scuba was trying to get me to just accept defeat she thought he was'nt worth saving it seemed with what she said, then i had to go and tell mary,the truth,.
i do regret not telling her sooner now.she could'nt go round to scbu,sooner than this anyway,cos of the stitches,but her world fell in on her totally,all at once,and i'd been thinking,he'll pull through,till the cold hearted sister on scuba told me in the manner she told me,.
mary was wheeled round to scbu in her bed,it was horrible the atmosphere,the nasty sister,was very cold and clinical,i was glad she was a woman and not a man,i think i would'v lost it.
i followed the special ambulance to leeds,,it was so heartbreaking and scary leaving mary in this hospital,but i could'nt do anything else,i had to be with jamie,i know he knew my voice,the poor little thing was so lonely.the staff at leeds wre a breath of fresh air,so caring,.
i stayed that night ,mary was transfered the next day to leeds,i had to leave em both,and go home to sort things out,and went back later,it was a nightmare, we never woke up out of..
it was'nt a straight forward case of losing our son,and try to grieve,over it ,we had other things to deal with,like the nurse on scubu ward that kept coming in the room we was given to stay with jamie (to die) after the machines had been switched off,she came in several times,but the last time she did ,she stayed for ages,and was talking about clubbing and pubs, we did'nt have our last moments with jamie,free of this horrible person cold insensitive thing,and that grieves me and his mum,
some may say, you should'v said to her to go,but even after his death ,i did'nt want any mistreatment aimed at him,after the things that happened and the things we seen,nothing was beyond this third world cold hospital.and yes i'm bitter,but in rotherham you cant get good service even in most bakeries even,they have a bad attitude problem,
staff who work at this hospital avoid this hospital,and go to nearby ones,and take their family members else where,AVOID AT ALL COST you'll regret this if you end up having to go there...
we applied for jamies notes etc but the imfamous hospital would'nt agree ,so we had to employ a solicitor,although they were'nt very good,we at least got some things sorted,the reason i'm writing this is i'm bitter,and always will be regarding the loss of my son,.but to hopefully avoid this hospital,when mary was taken in for section i was with the consultant,in the staff changing room as i was going to be in on the op,the consultant,put on his gounds and wellington type boots,and pointed to other gounds to choose for me ,to wear,his and mine were covered in old dried blood,i was looking at him and myself in shock,all these films etc where you see the staff scrubbing up etc ,all fresh clean clothes,no not at this hospital,so if you do go to this hospital,and you are in for an op,phew! goodluck,we dont think this caused jamies illness,but it would contribute to someonelses germ spreading,the consultant in question,was in the spotlight recently,for misjudgement,which in turn caused the death of a baby,.but they'r above reproach it seems,a law unto themselves,i so regret not getting him in a choke and threatening him with undescribable violence,and thats not my character,RDGH

For Mon
In our hearts your memory lingers
Sweetly tender, fond and true,
There is not a day, dear angel
That we do not think of you.

We know that you're beside us,
In everything we do,
But life's just not the same
Now that we've lost you
♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥ •:*:•♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥ •:*:•♥

Things I feel most deeply
Are the hardest things to say
My dearest one, I love you

For Thur
Your life was a blessing

I'm sending a dove to heaven

Wrapped up in a million hugs
To say how much you mean to us
And send you all our love

For Sat
Babies are angels
That fly to earth
Their wings disappear
At the time of there birth
One look in their eye
And we're never the same
They're part of us now
And that part has a name
That part is your heart
And a bond that won’t sever
Our babies are angels
And we love them forever
♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥ •:*:•♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥ •:*:•♥
For Sun
It happens without warning
Time and time again
I go along and join the flow
But still remember when
You were there to share it all
That made it all worth while
The memories keep flooding back
And once again I smile
Then reality returns to me
And once again your gone
If only this little dream I have
Could simply just go on
I try and hide the heartache
But I feel it none the less
These are my words I send to you
I WILL LOVE AND MISS YOU FOREVER……..

FOR SUN
Just the average family
We didn't ask for more.
Then life was changed completely
With that knock upon our door.
This awful thing had happened
And none of us knew why.
You were never coming back again
And we didn't say goodbye.
Our world just fell to pieces
We cried with disbelief.
We had to stick together
To overcome our grief.
We'll never understand it
It all seems so unfair.
We wish we'd hear that knock again
And see you standing there.

God needed an angel in heaven
When Jesus lived upon the earth so many years ago,
He called the children close to him because he loved them so.....
And with that tenderness of old, that same sweet, gentle way,
He holds your little loved one close within his arms today.....
And you’ll find comfort in your faith that in his home above
The God of little children gives your little one his love....
So think of you little darling lighthearted and happy and free
Playing in God’s promised land where there is joy eternally.

For Monday
Death leaves a heartache
No one can heal;
Love leaves a memory
No one can steal
For Tuesday
Gone yet not forgotten,
Although we are apart,
Your spirit lives within me,
Forever in my heart.
For Wednesday
A gift for such a little while,
Your loss just seems so wrong,
You should not have left before us,
It’s with loved ones you belong.
For Thursday
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye,
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God knows why.
If love could have saved you,
you would have lived forever.
For Friday
Those we love remain with us
For love itself lives on,
And cherished memories never fade
Because a loved one's gone.
Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart,
Far as long as there is memory,
They'll live on in the heart.
For Saturday
Don’t tell me that you understand.
Don’t tell me that you know.
Don’t tell me that I will survive,
How I will surely grow.
Don’t come at me with answers
That can only come from me.
Don’t tell me how my grief will pass,
That I will soon be free.
Accept me in my ups and downs.
I need someone to share.
Just hold my hand and let me cry
And say, “My friend, I care"
For Sunday
A million times I needed you,
A million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you
You never would have died.
In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
No one could ever fill.
If tears could build a stairway
And heartache make a lane,
I'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you back again.
Our family chain is broken,
And nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.

TRIBUTES FOR WEEK COMMENCING 25TH JANUARY
FOR MONDAY
Our thoughts are ever with you
Though you have passed away.
And those who loved you dearly
Are thinking of you today.
FOR TUESDAY
Everyday in some small way
Memories of you come our way.
Though absent, you are always near
Still missed, loved and always dear.
FOR WEDNESDAY
Your presence we miss,
Your memory we treasure,
Loving you always,
Forgetting you never.
FOR THURSDAY
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye,
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God can tell us why.
FOR FRIDAY
If Roses Grow in Heaven
If roses grow in Heaven Lord
Please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Mother's arms
And tell her they're from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her,
And when she turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon her cheek
And hold her for a while.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it everyday,
But there is an ache within my heart
That will never go away
FOR SATURDAY
Family Chain
We little knew that morning,
God was going to call your name,
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
You did not go alone.
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories,
Your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you,
You are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.
FOR SUNDAY
Miss Me - But Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room,
Why cry for a soul set free.
Miss me a little, but not too long,
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me, but let me go.
For this journey that we all must take,
And each must go alone.
It's all a part of the Master's plan,
a step on the road to home.
When we are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to the friends we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds,
Miss me, but let me go.
