UPDATE - Eve is now a big sister, Isaac is very much like Eve and has very similar expressions - he's also very cheeky like her too! xx


Thankyou so much for everyones lovely messages and candles. They really do keep me going. xx


My beautiful daughter Eve Louise Norris was born on Christmas Eve 2003. She was 5lb 3oz and came out kicking and flaring her nostrils (just like mummy!) I knew from that moment onwards that I would never love anything more than I did her and that I would do anything in my powers to protect her. As time passed on and milestones were never reached, I realised Eve had her problems. Although heartbroken at first, I believed that I could cope with any illness/problem Eve had , the only thing I couldn't cope with was the thought of losing her. She had various problems eg delayed development, microcephally, hearing/visually impaired, Gastostomy fed and severe epilepsy. There was never a diagnosis as to why.

Eve and I made the most of her short life together and she was loved by everyone who ever met her. Although Eve never smiled she had her own little personality and could certainly get your attention to tell you what she wanted!! Whether it be a cry, a 'false' cough, a screech, a kick or a loving glare! For example, it was always very funny when Eve would be in bed on her own, she would have a 'really bad cough' , however when I picked her up and cuddled her or put her in bed with me the 'really bad cough' suddenly disappeared!!! - little monkey!

Eve lived a very 'normal' life and it was very important to me that she was given the same opportunity as every other little girl her age. She was adored by everyone at her nursery and when anyone asked about her they always described her as their 'special little girl'. Eve went in the sea, played on the swings, danced and painted! Her favourite pastimes included being cuddled and swimming in a heated swimming pool! (not in a cold one like the one on holiday!!!)

Eve was often taken into hospital over a bad seizure or a chest infection and I was often told to prepare for the worst, but my little girl was a fighter and always pulled through. We were often home the week later! 'Eve Naughty Norris' was often her nickname over the worry she put me through!

Although I could never contemplate losing her, I did believe that if I did lose her it would be this way, in hospital. Therefore, the way she did die was very much a shock to us all. Eve had been well for about four months and we had had a lovely summer together - we even managed to go on holiday together to Benidorm - some very precious memories.
On the 21st October my brother offered to have Eve for the night to give me a break (he had had her many times before and had an excellent understanding of her probelms and how to deal with them). Eve and I had a lovely last day together that day and had lots of cuddles, she was very well. About 6.30pm that night I dropped her off at my brothers. At 10.30pm that night I phoned to see how she was - all was fine and she was sound asleep.

The next I knew was that I was being woken up by a phone call from my brother saying that he was sorry and that Eve had gone. I was confused and rushed up to the local hospital. As I arrived there, my brother and various doctors/nurses were at the door. I knew. I went to see her and picked her up in my ams to try to wind her. She had gone. The doctors said that she had had a seizure in her sleep and had died peacefully. Words cannot describe how I felt. There was nothing I, the ambulance or my brother could have done. I often feel guilty that I was not with her when she died and also go through the 'what if's?'. However someone eased my pain by saying that she didnt want me to be there when she left as she didnt want to hurt and panic me.That SHE chose that time to go for a reason. She always was the one in charge!

I really wanted to take Eve home with me until the funeral and luckily I was able to do this. I spent 3 very precious days/nights with her before she was finally cremated on the 26th October 2006. I wrapped her up in her favourite pink blanket and snuggled her up to her teddies and pictures and placed her in her beautiful white coffin. I gave Eve her last kiss goodbye and told her that I loved her.

At the crematorium I carried her coffin down and placed it at the front. I felt that as I had brought her into the world , I wanted to be the last one with her. The service was beautiful. I recorded a message to everyone at the servive celebrating Eve's life. Corrine Bailey Rae's - 'Just like a star', 'You are my Sunhine' and 'Somewhere over the Rainbow' were played during the service. The vicar's last words were , "your little girl is now with the angels in heaven". I felt somewhat at peace by this.
When we arrived home there was a rainbow over my house - I smiled . Hundreds of people attended Eve's funeral and I was inundated with cards and kind words from all who knew us. They often stated that i had given Eve all I could and that she was a very lucky girl. I felt like a very lucky mum in that I had shared such a precious life.

Eve was my right arm and I miss her so much, we were very much a team. I feel so lost without her. I have had tremendous support from my friends and family and they are helping me through. I don't know how I would have reached this stage without them. I can't believe that it is nearly 2 year since she left me, I dont know where the years has gone. I also can't believe that my little girl would have been 5 this Christmas! I know for a fact that my nana (who also passed away) will be making sure that she has the best 'pinkest' party ever in heaven.
Have fun little girl, all my love ^I^ mummy ^i^ xxxxxx

Secret Information



Would you like to know a secret?
Well, I'll tell you one I know:
The Easter's Bunny's coming,
My Mummy told me so.

He'll bring a basket filled with eggs
And leave it in my yard,
And I will find it Easter morn,
If I look very hard.

I shouldn't tell my secret,
But I think it should be shared.
You ought to know that Bunny's coming,
So you can be prepared!

Little Eve A Sparkling Little Star XxXxX

There shines a sparkling star, her name is lovely Eve.
We See her from afar, In her we do believe.
How beautiful you are, in memory alone.
We miss baby Eve, we just want you to come home.
I know the angels pray, as we send our love so true.
Sweet angel Eve,Just stay, your loved ones are missing you.
XxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX
Love to all who miss a sweet angel Eve, love Claire & Dallas XX

It is hard to sing of oneness when our world is not complete, when those who once brought wholeness to our life have gone, and naught but memory can fill the emptiness their passing leaves behind.

But memory can tell us only what we were, in company with those we loved; it cannot help us find what each of us, alone, must now become. Yet no one is really alone; those who live no more, echo still within our thoughts and words, and what they did is part of what we have become.

We do best homage to those who have passed over to the other side when we live our lives most fully, even in the shadow of our loss.

ANGEL ANNIVERSARY

ANGEL ANNIVERSARY

~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~

Although words seem to say so little,
I hope they help in some small way
To ease the sense of loss
That you’re experiencing today.
~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~
To all of the cherished moments
Of the past,
To the blessings and the laughter,
The joys and the celebrations,
The sorrow and the tears.
~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~
They all add up to a treasure
Of fond yesterdays
That you shared and spent together,
And they keep the one you loved
Close to you in spirit and thought.
~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~
The special moments
And memories of your life
Will never change.
They will always be in your heart
Today and forever more.
~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~
