Isaac Patrick Higgins was our 2nd child, he was born still on 17th November 2003 at 37 weeks of pregnancy. He had a big brother called Joshua and now has a baby brother called Luke. He weighed 7lb9oz and was 21" long, perfect in every way.
We were devestated when we were told there was no heart beat, how could this happen to us? it just didn't make sense, I was in hospital being monitered for gestational diabetes, and had been fine the night before even heard his heart beat at 11pm on the 16th when the nurse did her night checks before lights out. I didn't sleep much that night. The nurse was back at 7am on the 17th to do her checks and the doppler didn't seem to work, she brought in a scanner but it seemed that didn't work either, she sent for a doctor who wanted me to go to fetal assesment for a proper scan, I wasn't at all worried, how could anything possibly be wrong, I only had 3 weeks to go. We went down for a scan and the doc seemed to be taking ages, "is everything ok" I asked, She looked at me and I knew, I just knew before she said a thing, by the look in her eyes, "I'm sorry Susan, there's no heartbeat", 6 words that shattered my world. I asked her to check again in case she made a mistake, she did but there was no mistake.
My husband was called and together we tried to make sense of it. There was no sense to be made. I was going to be induced later that day but had to have an emergency section as I had a concealed abruption. We will never forget our baby boy, we took him home before we buried him, he is buried with his grandad Michael. We miss him every day, and will forever.


Zac, you are our forever baby, forever loved, for never forgotten.


Love Mam, Dad, Joshua and Luke xxx and you new baby brother Joel

To The Child in Our Heart

"O' precious tiny, sweet little one,
you will always be to us perfect, pure and innocent,
just as you were meant to be.
We dreamed of you and of your life and all that it would be,
we waited and longed for you to come and join our family.
We never had the chance to play, to laugh, to rock, to wiggle,
we long to hold you, touch you now and listen to you giggle.

I will always be your mother; he'll always be your Dad,
you will always be our child, the child that we had.
now you're gone...but yet you're here,
we will sense you everywhere.

You are our sorrow and our joy,
there's love in every tear.
Just know that our love goes deep and strong,
we'll forget you never -
the child we had, but never had,
and yet will have forever.......

Surviving Mum

My Mum is a survivor,
Or so I've heard it said.
But I can hear her crying at night,
When all others are in bed.
I watch her lay awake at night,
And go to hold her hand.
She doesn't know I'm with her,
To help her understand.
But like the sands on the beach,
That never wash away...
I watch over my surviving mum,

Who thinks of me each day.
She wears a smile for others...
A smile of disguise!
But through Heaven's door I see,
Tears flowing from her eyes.
My mum tries to cope with death,
To keep my memory alive.
But anyone who knows her knows,
It is her way to survive.
As I watch over my surviving mum,
Through Heaven's open door...
I try to tell her that angels,
Protect me forevermore.
I know that doesn't help her...
Or ease the burden she bears.
So if you get a chance, go visit her...
And show her that you care.
For no matter what she says...
No matter what she feels,
My surviving mum has a broken heart,
That time won't ever heal.


Surviving Dad

My dad is a survivor too...
which is no surprise to me.
He's always been like a lighthouse
that helps you cross a stormy sea.

But, I walk with my dad each day
to lift him when he's down.
I wipe the tears he hides from others.
He cries when noone's around.

I watch him sit up late at night
with my picture in his hand.
He cries as he tries to grieve alone,
and wishes he could understand.

My dad is like a tower of strength.
He's the greatest of them all~!
But there are times when he needs to cry...
Please be there when he falls.

Hold his hand or pat his shoulder...
And tell him it's okay.
Be his strength when he's sad
Help him mourn in his own way.

Now, as I watch over my precious dad
from the Heavens up above...
I'm so proud that he's a survivor...
And, I can still feel his love

In a baby castle, just beyond your eye,
Your baby plays with angel toys that money cannot buy.
Who are you to wish him back into this world of strife,
No, play on your baby, they'll have eternal life.
At night when all is silent and sleep forsakes your eyes,
You'll hear their tiny footsteps come running to your side
Their little hands caress you so tenderly and sweet,
You'll breathe a prayer and close your eyes and embrace them in your sleep.
Now you have a treasure that you rate above all others
You have known true glory,
You are still their mother.

Born Still - by Unknown Author
Do you know how hard it is
To hold a baby who doesn’t cry?
Do you know how hard it is
To tell that baby Goodbye?

Do you know how hard it is
To look at an empty bed?
Knowing your child should be there
Resting his sleepy head?

Do you know how hard it is
Feeling you’re to blame?
And no matter what they tell you
You'll always feel the same.

Do you know the heartache
Knowing he’s gone for good?
And feeling that you didn't
Do all the things you could.

Do you know how hard it is
To hear that it's Gods will?
Do you know the emptiness
When your child is born still?

Unfortunately we do XX

For Joshua, Luke and Joel

You have this little Brother,
He loves you very much,
But you’ll never get to see him,
Or feel his gentle touch.

He had to go away you see,
Through God’s garden gates.
Though he longs to meet you,
Heaven’s where he waits.

You have this little Brother,
He’s sending you his love,
Although he longs to be with you,
He watches from above.

He grew his Angel wings you see,
Though none of us were ready,
On one of heavens clouds he sleeps,
Cuddling his teddy.

You have this little Brother,
He’d love to come and play.
But for all eternity,
In the sky is where he’ll stay.

God had a plan you see,
He needs him by his side,
He’s shown him how to use his wings,
Through heavens clouds he glides.

You have this little Brother,
And though you are apart,
The love that you feel for him,
Will remain ever in your heart.

The mention of my child's name may bring tears to my eyes,
but it never fails to bring music to my ears.
If you really are my friend,
please don't keep me from hearing beautiful music.
It soothes my broken heart and fills me with love.

IN HEAVEN

In Heaven there must surley be.

A special place a nursery.

Where little spirits, not fully grown,

Go to live in their Heavenly home. xxx

BABY\'S ARE ANGELS

Baby's are angels that fly to the earth.

Their wings dissapear at the time of their birth.

One look in their eyes and were never the same.

Ther'e part of us now and that part has a name.

That part is your heart and a bond that won't sever.

Our babies are angels we love them forever. xxx
