In memory of our lovely Aillidh

[expatinscotland]

At 11.25 last night, our beautiful, 9-year-old daughter died of complications from treatment for acute myeloid leukaemia, she went into respiratory failure after contracting human metapneumo virus following conditioning chemotherapy for stem cell transplant.

For many days, she lingered on a ventilator. But last night, she developed a pneumothorax and rapidly deteriorated.

She died within seconds of the ventilator being taken off.

I can't believe she's gone, or how broken her long body looked.

There are no words that I can offer to make any difference.

I feel for you and all your family at this time Expat.

Take comfort in each other and remember what a beautiful loving daughter Aillidh is

I am so sorry. I have kept ye in my heart over the last few months. I continue to do so. Love xxx.

I'm so sad for you. Aillidh was a credit to you in her strength and courage. I am thinking of you and your family.

I'm so sorry about Aillidh, so sorry.

So very sorry to read your news, expat.

So very, very sorry

Sending you love and will be praying for you all.

expat, as a family of faith, please hold in your heart the thought that hundreds of people held your baby up to God. It is certain that she is with Him now.

It is also certain that her fight inspired many and drew many back to Him. Her life had a purpose and meaning outside of her loving family. And now also there are people on the bone marrow donor list that otherwise would not have signed up.

Expat I am so sorry for your loss, my thoughts are with you and your family xxx

Be happy and remember. Remember the love, smiles and happiness she brought and carried with her on her incredible journey. Her strength and yours Leigh are an inspiration to many who may never truly 'know' or meet you.

May the Lord bless you and keep you Aillidh.

So so sorry, much love to you and your family xx
