Pippa passed away in the early hours of this morning after a viral infection led to blood poisoning, she was 3 years old. Her and her big brother were so excited as 10 days ago I had a baby. I am so utterly lost and heartbroken.

I am so sorry this has happened. It's a heartbreakingly hard world where things like this can happen.

Sweetheart............ [sa]

I was hoping that I would find you in here, for all of the wrong reasons, I know, but I've just read your FB message you sent me when you got home from the hospital, waiting to hear more news, I'm glad you came here for support, to let it out. I know you've not yet, but this place will be invaluable in days to come.

My darling, beautiful friend, how can I help you? How can I take your pain away when you have been so cruelly hit? I want to be there with you and hold you until you have no tears left, I want to be there and help.... I'm so pleased that you are not alone. I'm so very glad that you have your family coming, and of course your Husband there.

Has DS gone to school or is he at home with you all, and does he know? Understand?

I'm so very cross for you. First your darling Mother was taken from you, a woman who was smart, strong, loved, kind and yes, a little bit scatty at times! But she was your wonderful Mum and I know that you still miss her and need her now more than ever Sad You need her....... I hope that Pippa is with her, and my Mum too.

You have lost your gorgeous little princess. How can life do this to you? Take your Mother and your only Daughter? You are my best friend, I love you so much and I can't get to you, I know you will have a houseful but I wanted to thank you for calling me as soon as you could this morning.

How on earth can you move forward? I've lit a candle for your darling girl, your Mum and mine too, I hope that the two Grandma's have found her, your little Pippa and are sat playing dollies with her, dressing her up, putting her princess dress on.... telling her how pretty she is. Brushing her hair, drawing pictures, playing games and holding her, taking any fear away from her.

I will call you later and keep in touch but I'll also respect your loss today and that you have those that love you too with you today. All around you, a busy place may actually help.

I'm so, so, so sorry and so is DH. I've told him and he's left a message on your DH's phone, which was understandably turned off.

Why do we live so far apart!! I love you so very much sweetheart. I'll talk to you later,

Mousey xxx

Pippa was a feisty dolly day dream forever in her favourite princess dress. She was so excited about her new brother Elliott, 10 days old, the heartache I feel in knowing that he will never remember her is soul destroying. Up until 20 minutes before she passed she was still arguing with the nurses over a pink cup. Her older brother Aubrey goes from sad to bouncing on their trampoline, he is only 5. Pippa loved ballet, swimming, dog walking and nursery, the only thing keeping me going are my boys, I can't close my eyes as all I see is her in the mortuary. Thank you for all your kind words, they do mean a lot to me.
