Thankyou to everyone who has lit candles, sent tributes and pictures to chloe on her 16th birthday.
This has made a difficult day, a bit easier to bare. Sorry about the lack of candles but have had so
much trouble with my computer. Will be moving shortly, then hopefully i will be back to lighting all
your candles again.
Hi everyone, sorry about the lack of candles at the mo but i am having lots of trouble with some
pervert on facebook. This twisted person has been saying some really evil things about chloe. I will
be back lighting candles within the next couple of days. Thankyou to all of you who have still been
lighting her candles.
I would just like to thank everyone for all chloe's candles, pics, gifts and tributes for her 2nd
angelversary. It means so much to me that so many people care about her.
Sorry about the lack of candles again, but myself and chloe's dad have just broken up after being
together for 17 years.
Sorry my candles have been a bit hit and miss lately. I have just left my job, so i'm hoping to get
back to lighting the candles more frequently now.
chloe has been put on facebook, if anyone would like to read about her it is on groups under
disabled children have no rights.
If u light a candle for chloe, would you also be so kind to light one for chloe's brother Miles
Rawlins and their cousin Marcus Holmes. Thankyou.
I would just like to thank everyone who has lit candles for chloe. It means so much to me, to know
that so many people care.
Chloe Rebecca Sturgess died on the 10th of April 2007, at the age of 13. She has 1 brother, Wesley
who is 9. Chloe was born with Rett Syndrome, she also had chronic lung disease due to numerous chest
infections, and died from an asthma attack.
Although Chloe was 13, she was only 7 months old mentally. In her short life, she had to endure more
pain, than most people suffer in a lifetime. She loved looking at herself in the mirror and was
always so happy, even when she was really ill, she would still manage to smile. Chloe was my
beautiful daughter and such a special little girl. Life will never be the same ever again. I will
never forget her great big brown sparkily eyes or her beautiful smile. She will remain in the hearts
of everyone who ever knew her and she will never be forgotten.
I still find it hard to believe that you are no longer here. I am still fighting to get answers
about how your leg was broken. It is like banging your head against a brick wall. We all still
believe that if you hadn't suffered a broken leg, you would still be here with us.
Your leg was broken sixteen months ago, and even now we still don't know the full story. The thing
that gets me the most is that your teacher wont even lose her job.
More than anything, the only person who knew what really happened that day was you. But you couldn't
talk. The school tried to pin your broken leg on another child. The other child was suppose to of
picked up your left leg and crossed it over your right leg. This was meant to have happened in a
matter of seconds. The thing is we all knew how you reacted if your legs were touched. You would
instantly panic. It was hard for me to move your legs, so it would be virtually impossible for
another child to move them.
You had to spend six weeks in hospital and have two rods and two pins inserted in your leg. Your
femur had been snapped in such a way, that your knee was classed as floating. Because of the pain
that you suffered, you ended up suffering from three chest infections in a space of six weeks and
had to go into intensive care three times. When you came down with the third chest infection, i was
told that you wouldn't recover and if you did, you wouldn't survive another one. I was told that you
had six months at the most to live. You managed to hang on for another ten months.
Since your leg was broken, we have been trying to get someone to admit liability, but nobody has. We
have been told that it was just an unforeseeable accident. How they can say this, i will never know.
In your statement it said that you needed one to one the whole time you were at school. On this day
your one to one and three class assistants all went for a tea break at the same time. This left just
the teacher with six special needs kids on her own. This is when your leg was broken. The teacher
couldn't even say what happened, as she said that she didn't see it. The accident happend at
11.15am, but the school didn't even ring until 3.15pm to let us know that you had been hurt.
Since you left us, i have been to the evening argus (local news paper) i have been on the local
news and written a letter to Gordon Brown. None of it has made any difference. Our court case was
suppose to be over by the end of summer, but now it wont be until feb or march next year. I wont
stop fighting for answers until that teacher has lost her job. We have never wanted anything, but
for that teacher to lose her job so no other child has to go through what you went through.

Legacy of Love
A Wife, a Mother, a Grandma too,
This is the legacy we have from you.
You taught us love and how to fight,
You gave us strength, you gave us might.
A stronger person would be hard to find,
And in your heart, you were always kind.
You fought for us all in one way or another,
Not just as a wife not just as a Mother.
For all of us you gave your best,
Now the time has come for you to rest.
So go in peace, you've earned your sleep,
Your love in our hearts, we'll eternally keep

MY LITTLE GARDEN
I have a little garden
No flowers will you find;
Instead you'll see the friendships
That I have made online.
They grow from something other
Than normal flowers do.
They thrive on love and support
And understanding too.
This special little garden;
No matter rain or shine,
Is always in bloom;
This special place of mine.
It's filled with fun and laughter;
Where happiness abounds.
This lovely garden echoes
Many joyful sound.
I would like for you to know
That you are planted here
In my 'Friendship Garden';
Our hearts are always near.

Sent Straight From Heaven
You were a gift sent straight from Heaven.
Given to us from God above.
We didn't know how much you would teach us
About the meaning of true love...
For true love sometimes means letting go
Of someone precious and dear.
That is what we were forced to do...
Although we wanted to keep you here!!!
However, this is quite a selfish wish.
One we know we should ignore...
But, we truly do believe
That God must have needed you more...
Perhaps to be an Angel now,
Full of wisdom and love...
Watching over those of us who love you
From the shining stars above.
We miss you more than you can know.
You will never be replaced...
In our hearts and memories forever,
Will be your sweet and innocent sleeping face.
Each time we see your picture
You seem to smile and say,
“Don’t cry, I’m in God’s hands,
We’ll meet again someday!”
♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥
“The Best”
God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you
And He whispered “Come to Me”
With tearful eyes we watched you.
We watched you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard-working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He chose to take the best.
It’s lonesome here without you
We miss you more each day.
Life doesn’t seem the same
Since you have gone away.
When days are sad and lonely
And everything goes wrong,
We seem to hear you whisper
“Cheer Up and Carry On”

MOTHER AND CHILDS BOND
The Cord
We are connected, my child and I,
by an invisible cord not seen by the eye.
It's not like the cord that connected us 'till birth,
this cord can't be seen by anyone on earth.
This cord does its work, right from the start,
it bonds us together, attached at the heart.
I know that its there though no one can see,
the invisible cord, from my child to me.
The strength of this cord, it's hard to describe.
it can't be destroyed, it can't be denied.
It's stronger than any cord, man could create,
it withstands the tests, can hold any weight.
And though you are gone, not here with me,
the cord is still there, but no one can see.
It pulls at my heart, I am bruised....I am sore,
but this cord is my lifeline, as never before.
I am thankful that God connected this way,
a mother and a child, death can't take it away!
All my Love. Have a wonderful weekend. Love Gloria Anthony's Mom xoxo

THE GIFT OF MEMORY……
One gift, above all others
God gives to us to treasure
One that knows no time, no place
And one gold cannot measure
The precious, poignant tender gift
Of Memory...that will keep
Of dear ones ever in our hearts
Although God gives them sleep
It brings back long remembered things
A song, a word, a smile
And the world's a better place
...because
We had them for awhile!

So please do not worry, or put up a guard.
For I want you too see I am still here,
To keep you safe, and keep you near....
As an angel I want so much for you to know,
'How much I Love And Miss You So'
So if you see me, please do not hide,
I am the angel by your side...

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.

I PROMISE I WILL HEAR…..
Don't think of me as dead and gone
Please understand I have just moved on
God took my hand
When you thought I had died
And led me over to the other side.
There's a better life
Than the one we know
And to it one day we all must go
No more pain, hardship,
Or times of misery
Instead there's all our loved ones
As happy as can be.
You may not see me for a little while
Hear me laugh or see me smile
But I promise you with all my heart
From the ones I love I will never part.
I will always be with you,
However far you walk
I will always listen,
When you feel you need to talk
So when you are saddened
Or driven to despair
Take comfort from the knowledge
That I am always there.
One day soon I will share with you
The happiness I have found
And you will see life doesn't end
Six feet beneath the ground
Forget about graveside visits
And fresh flowers every day
A yearly verse in the papers
Is surely not the way
When there is something you want to say
Or you wish that I was near
Just talk to me like you always did
I promise I will hear.

SWEET CHLOE
This day will be a celebration
of the short time you were here.
You will always be remembered
with great love and many tears.
But to only feel pain and sorrow
would not be fair to you.
Your life meant so much more to us,
more than words could say.
You were here so briefly,
I wonder if you knew
all the ways you’ve touched
our world and our hearts
and everyone who knew you
since the day God called you home.
Now my child, you’re an angel
with your heavenly Father above,
we see not only what we’ve lost
but our capacity of love.
There will always be a big void
in our life and a hole in our
hearts that will never heal.
Our souls will grieve forever.
Will we forget or stop loving you?
No! Not now…not ever.
As this day is upon us,
oh, how our hearts still hurt.
But even as I mourn your death,
we will always celebrate your birth.
It was the happiest day of our lives.

Tribute For This Weekend
A Special Angel
There's a special angel in heaven
That is a part of me
It is not where I wanted him
But where God wanted him to be
He was here but just a moment
Like a night time shooting star
And though he is in heaven
He isn't very far
He touched the heart of many
Like only and angel can do
I would've held him more often
If the end I only knew
So I send this special message
To the heavens up above
Please take care of my angel
And send him all my love
♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥
How I Feel
I don't know how to feel
It's all locked up inside,
The emptiness is waking
The tears are running dry.
Your the one who held me
Gave comfort when things went wrong,
What do I do without you
I feel my faith is gone.
My heart just doesn’t realise
That you are really gone.
A loss that came so suddenly
But will last my whole life long.
Our time just meant so much too me
I know it always will
The memories locked inside of me
Forever to hold on too
You told me that we'd be,
Together forever more
Part of each others lives
But now the door is closed.
Never too be opened
Kept locked on both sides now
Although you may have gone away
Your spirit will forever stay
♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥♫AC♥
My Life Changed
My Life changed, the very moment I found out
That you had passed away.
I couldn't stop it;
There was nothing I could say.
You've touched my life so deeply
To a point you will never know,
I try to think about you
When I am feeling down and low.
Sometimes when my day gets hard
I will think about your beautiful smile
And if I listen hard enough
I will hear your voice after a while.
It's you who give me a reason
To go on with my day,
And now if I want to see you
I'll bow my head and pray.
I catch myself looking for you still,
In the halls and at your front door,
But when I call your name
There is no reply any more!
I never thought a day would come
Where we would be apart,
God has you in his keepings,
We have you in our hearts.
Life will go on, but never will be the same,
Your beautiful smile is gone, but it will always remain.
You're our angel from up above.
You'll always be missed, but most importantly... loved.
Just one more minute,
God, is all I ask- why can't you give her back;
It seems like such a simple task.
I guess people are right
When they say God only takes the best,
I know enough now that you're peacefully at rest.
