I've been watching a thread as I'm sure many of you have by Tiasmummy over the last few weeks and just wanted to start a little support thread as it is Tia's funeral tomorrow at 11.30am.
Left message on your other thread but lighting a candle here in Lancashire at 11.30 for the 3 of you. May you all find the strength to get through tommorrow for your beautiful daughter.
Oh goodness, Tiasmummy wishing you lots of strength and sending you prayers and thoughts...it is so hard to find the right words...my heart goes out to you and your family so much.
Tiasmummy, I am so very very sorry for the loss of your beloved little girl . I'm sure she felt just how much she was loved, and she will never be forgotten. I will think of you all on Wednesday. xx
Will be thinking of you today Tiasmummy and Tiasdaddy and will say a prayer for you. We have no churches where I live (Saudi Arabia) but will ask my mother to light a candle and pray for you in her catholic church. xxx
I'll be saying a prayer for Tia and for you (her family) today. I'll visit the church and light a candle for you all as well.
God Bless you all.
Thinking of you all. Stay around on Mumsnet Tiasmummy - there are others here who have been through this too and who will understand how dreadful and painful this is. Come back for support as often as you need it.
I hope the warmth and love of your family and friends around you help you through this terrible, sad day. I think every mother here is crying for you and with you, I wish we could ease some of your pain.
Morning Tiamummy I am so sorry for your pain. I hope you and your DH are enjoying a cuddle with your precious girl.
I am saying a prayer for you and your family and my candle is ready to be lit in Sheffield, South Yorkshire.
I hope you can draw some comfort from the support you have on Mumsnet, I know I have. Don't forget we will still be here for you after today if you need us. I'm afraid I can not take your pain away but I can share it with you. Much love CM
Shabster thank-you for your lovely idea of lighting a candle across the country for Tia and her family, it is a lovely gesture, and also thank you to Mamadiva for providing a link.
My candle has been lit and I am thinking about you all and wishing you all the strength an love you need to get you through today - one step at a time xxx
I'm not sure what OK is, and i'm not sure you will know either, but I hope today, you felt that Tia had a fitting tribute to her short but wonderful life.
She loved you as you loved her, she just never got the chance to tell you. She will always look down and love you from heaven, just as you will always love her.
Tiamummy I can only imagine your anguish. I have read your posts in tears and believe me even though I do not know you personally I will always remember your Tia over the years to come since my DD is the same age. I can imagine your lovely child only too well, sweet and cheeky and a pure joy.
Beautiful Tia, now a bright little angel watching over her Mummy and Daddy always. She is surrounded by love and care and can know only happiness and joy. Be strong - she loves you more than anything and will be there to meet you again one day when you will hold her in your arms once more.
Wishing you and your family all the atrength in the world. One day you will meet your little girl again, but until then she'll watch you, and when you need her there, she'll be with you.
A candle lit in Kent for you. Sleep tight little lady. x
I have no experience of losing a baby. I cannot begin to imagine it. Lots of people are thinking of you on here and wishing you comfort. The words seem so inadequate but we reach out to you. xx
From the land of rainbows, thinking of you all. Today, we found the perfect, small church with Mary-of-the-Sorrows and two beautiful angels flying above Jesus, so, we lit a candle for Tia, for you, her Mummy and for her Daddy and all her family. Take care.
We live in the North-West of Spain, on the coast. The town has its own microclimate and it is simply the land of rainbows - double ones, huge ones, glorious beautiful rainbows, all year round. They do take your breath away and always make me stop and smile. Will be thinking of you and Tia from now on whenever they light up our sky.
