My beautiful, brave Harry bear

I have posted alot in the special needs section over the years. I am heart broken. My beautiful, brave Harry passed away peacefully on tuesday in mine and his daddys arms. I am lost, heartbroken. I want him back so much. I want to kiss him and cuddle him. I want him. He was only five and had been very ill and disabled since birth (www.harrysjourney.co.uk). He took us all by suprise though. we knew we wouldnt have him long, but i didnt think he would go this soon. He had been ill at christmas and was only given hours to live, but he fought it. It left him exhaused and he slept most days, all day. He couldnt fight anymore.

I love him so much. He is in the butterfly suite at claire house at the moment and we are spending time with him till his funeral on friday. I miss him so much it hurts physically. I know he is better where he is and that his body works now, but i want him with me. Please tell me it gets easier.

My thoughts are with you all, i can only begin to imagine how you might be feeling right now, the death of a child is just so wrong.

Just wanted to say how sorry I am for your loss.

Please join us on Eris' thread for Bereaved Mummies (sorry havent mastered links yet!), where you may find some comfort and support from others who have lost children (some recently, some a long time ago).
