Rebecca Abbie Sawyer was born on July 27th 1996, she weighed 6lb 12oz
and was the apple of our eyes. Our other bundle of joy Kirsty was born on 16th April 2001. Kirsty and Becca were inseperable, they were like two peas in a pod, and our lives revolved around them.
On new years eve 2002 my husband and I went out for a meal, the girls were staying at their grandparents house where there was a party .
At 9pm my husband went to collect the girls but they were dancing and having so much fun that they didn't leave until 10.30pm. I was waiting at home for them, it was only a 5 minute car journey back home. At 10.45pm I heard fire engines, police and ambulance sirens, I thought that there had been trouble in the town never thinking my family were involved. A joyrider had jumped a red light and hit our car at speed so much so that my youngest Kirsty who was 18 months old was flung out of her car seat onto the road, people thought she was a doll lying in the road, Rebecca was crushed in the car and had to be cut free, she died at 00.05. Kirsty was left fighting for life for 17 days, she is now paralysed in her left arm and will never walk properly again. Her life has been changed completely as has my husband and myself. The last 5 1/2 years has been a living nightmare.
Nobody realises the pain we go through every day just to get through the day, only people who have lost a loved one can understand.

CANDLES IN DECEMBER
My sadness seems reflected
in the music that I hear...
Every young girl's glowing face,
Reminds me you're not here.
Shoppers crowd the festive stores,
emotions all run high,
This world I was a part of once,
Seems to pass me by.
This season's meant for happy times,
For love, warm hearts, and cheer,
But grieving families around the world,
Remember those not here.
We struggle through the season,
Lighting candles to proclaim,
Our children aren't forgotten,
Round the world our candles flame.
I slowly pass through the gates thrown wide,
One clear, cold Christmas day,
No toys or gifts do I bring,
Those are gifts of yesterday.
I carry with me just a broken heart
And a beautiful wreath I made,
And walk with grief to where my Daughter lies,
In a silent silvered glade.
'Merry Christmas Love' I whisper,
The quiet words seem so forlorn,
'I've brought my heart for you to keep,
My gift, This Christmas morn.'
'It is filled with all my love,
for always
I'll place it here---it will be near,
You'll never be alone.'
Please keep my gift, beloved child,
Close to where you lie,
And know my love surrounds you,
Until the day, I too shall die.
