A gift for our babies
Donation protected
Our babies have been through so much this year. Theyve lost their nan and only 9 week ago they lost their biggest brother. Our 7 year old son Liam, it was unexpected and extremely tragic for all of us. On the 23rd of november liam suffered a seizure which he wouldn't come out of, the hospital put him to sleep to give his body some rest but sadly he deteriorated, we had to endure the worst most traumatic night of our lives watching them work on him all night but the following day, Sunday the 24th of November with myself and his daddy by his side we kissed him and held him as his breathing tube was turned off and his little heart stopped beating. We are truly destroyed and the only thing keeping myself going right now is my beautiful babies and the need they have for their mummy.
Our two younger babies are too little to understand yet but Graci who's 5 and Levi who's 4, they understand and its hit them hard, especially Graci. We want to create a special safe place for them to play and be near Liams memories. Somewhere they can go to anytime they want or just be near to while they play. They used to have so much fun in our garden together and Liam would always be looking out for them. We want to create something special, a nice place at home where they can play safely and a memorial area where they can sit and talk to and remember Liam aka Sprout (liams nickname)
They come to the grave yard with us but when they get their the little ones want to naturally run around and play and Graci gets upset. I cry there everytime which although I know it's good for them to know it's ok to cry I dont want them to keep seeing so much sadness. It would be lovely for them to have their own little place at home where they feel comfortable and already have memories of Liam around them. So we want to create an outdoor space for them with a memorial area.
We do not expect everyone to pay for this, we will be paying for some of this ourselves but we only have access to a small amount of money. We feel we want to do it for them where we dont have to worry about what its costing, we want them to have the best because after everything theyve been through and are still going through we think they deserve the best.
We also think this would give us something to focus on as a family and help put together to make this a beautiful magical space for our babies.
Many of you will have already heard or seen Liams pictures and his story and we thank you all so much from the bottom of our hearts for the love and support we have felt over the past 5 weeks, even from strangers and people from all over the world. We can never thank you all enough.
Many thanks and much love The Allen Family x
