Our Precious Miracle Baby Options

[kestle]

Hello all.

Our "Baby" was born 27/11/97. She was a Patterdale Jack Russell.

She was dead at birth and left in the membrane by her mum who rejected her. I broke the membrane, she was lifeless. My husband tried to take her off me to bury her. I held onto her and told him to leave us alone. My husband went out in disgust saying "she's dead". I immediately started to vigorously massage here tiny body (about 5" long) and put her nose and mouth in mine, how long for I do not know. Suddenly there was a movement in one of her tiny paws. She then just sprang into life and squeeked. She was alive. I have never prayed so hard in my entire life.

I have always rescued animals, so perhaps my experience helped, my husband said that I must be a witch! She was so loved and spoilt. She was the boss. She was tiny but perfect, ginger haired and beautiful. I bottlefed her and I was her mummy.

It was her 13th birthday on the 27th November 2010. Her lovely ginger face was now white with age. I was so glad that she made it to 13. We bought her a new collar, lead and coat. She loved going out in the car and had lots of caravan holidays. Recently she just went out on little walks as she was doddery. From the 7th December she refused any of her favourite foods. On the 8th December her little legs began to give way and she just wanted to sleep. She was in the house on a quilt, comfy at the side of the radiator. She was telling us that the was ready to go to heaven. She went in her sleep peacefully, with my sons and I stroking and kissing her, holding her little paws. We are so grateful for 13 wonderful years and she will always be with us. She is buried outside my front door in her new coat, collar and lead.

My husband died five years ago aged just 53. He loved Baby so much, as we all did. I hope my husband is now looking after her as we have, our Baby was a miracle.

We are devastated yet happy for her.

Bless her, be happy our precious Baby, we love you so much.

It's the ones left behind who suffer. She really was our Baby from the day she took her first breath to the say she took her last. She was there for us and we were there for her. It could never have been long enough. ***

Dear Mummy,

I am happy now, no more aches and pains. I am having such a lovely time playing with our Bess, Yella, Rex, Wendy, Prince and loads more of our family from our house.

My daddy was so pleased to see me and he says now we will live here forever and that there are loads of us here in heaven and that we tell each other stories of our earthly lives and remember all the good times we had with our mummies and daddies and families.

But Mummy, I have met some new friends who tell us that they had no kisses and cuddles on earth, no loving mummy or daddy, just bad people. They were cold and hungry, chained up and beaten if they cried. Some were just left so long without food the angels came to rescue them and bring them here. Some were murdered or sometimes their mummies and daddies just came to heaven and they were left behind, very sad and lonely because no-one loved them any more until they came here.

Please mummy, tell all those lovely people who are crying for us all and missing us so much, we know how you feel but please try to help our friends down there. We won't be jealous and we know you will still love us forever, but some of our new friends here are so sad because they were never loved and looked after like us. They think humans are cruel and have no lovely memories at all. They say we are the lucky ones to have had you to love and take good care of us.

Mummy, I know you always brought loads of step-brothers and sisters to our house but I always knew I was extra special and that they weren't taking my love at all and that you had plenty for all of us. You keep thinking you would like to kiss and cuddle me again, take me for a walk and feed me. Mummy, help another furry brother or sister that are suffering right now and nobody cares about so they can know what it is like to be loved so much like we were and still are.

Please tell your new friends on 'Lightening Strike' we have our own group here called 'Loved and Remembered' and we have friends 'Lost and Lonely'. Please tell your human friends to help them on earth if they can before it is too late.

All the love in the world, Baby ***
