Heaven's Little Angel
Submited by: Lori Caporale
 
I always had a hard time dealing with a death of a love one, but how do you deal with a death of your own child? I had many sleepless nights and cried many oceans and always asked myself why? I still continue with the struggle even after 16 very hard years. My son lived for 12 days and died of complications after his birth. My grief took over my life and most of all my strenghth to go on. I tried to take the easy way out but I guess God had other plans for me. My mother was my savior and my best friend. Without her compasion and understanding I just dont know where I would be. I still thank God for giving me Tyler and my two other boys. Nobody can ever tell you that they know what you are going through until they lose a child of there own. Understanding Why is still hard but I do believe that God takes all the angels first. He must of thought tyler was to special to stay. I talk to him everyday and he will forvever have a place in my heart.
This is a poem I wrote for my son Tyler,

My little angel baby,with so much to give, Holding you tight and wishing you lived. Even though I only had 12 days with you,
I cherished every single moment I got to hold you. Then that morning God took you to play, The pain rushed through my body and my tears turned into rain. Oh how I miss you so dearly and my heart still aches, You were my sweet baby angel that I could never replace. I will hold all the memories deep inside my heart, Even though we are not together, I know your
not far.


No matter how hard it seems just remember to take life one day at a time. Your little angel is being watched over by God.

Thank you for listening to my story.
