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.

Expat I am so, so sorry. I haven't been on MN for nearly 2 weeks but I have been thinking of you all and to come back to this - there are no words :(

Ailidh will live forever in your heart and in the hearts of many others all round the world. May God bless her and may you feel His Grace with you, today and every day.

I'm not religious but I was raised as a Catholic and I think that this prayer for the dead sums things up:

Eternal rest, grant unto Aillidh, may perpetual light shine upon her, may she rest in peace.

Lots of love x

I am thinking of you today Expat. A day no parent should ever have to bear.

Thoughts and prayers are with you all. You will see Aillidh again. 'The Lord watch between me and thee while we are absent one from another.'
