Our fantastic DD3 has lost her battle.

Our beautiful and brave DD3 lost her battle against a brain tumour on 2nd July.She was 6 years old. The end came very quickly, just 2 wks after we were told it had spread, though she had been ill for a few weeks, we were hoping it was just the chemo hitting her hard. So devastated, I am weeping all the time it seems, how can you help the other children cope when you can't do it yourself?
I am glad she died at home in our bed with me, my worst nightmare would have been a long slow decline in Birmingham Children's hospital, I am trying to comfort myself with this one thing. The grief seems unbearable otherwise.

She was another lovely redhead, her name was Flora and loved dancing music bikes sandcastles parks, computer games everything really! She had ASD, so was was also quirky and funny, such fab interesting company, she was the centre of my world and I am lost without her. Can barely see the keyboard through the tears.
