Sighh
and then this afternoon i had a shower lol that shudnt really be news but it was quite eventful. i have to be watched in the shower lol idk why. its a bit stupid. so yeh i was watched in the show and i nearly had a panic attack cos i had no baby shampoo left and i actually cried. and then after that i went to see the baby and i got to hold her and change her nappy. how sad is this right thats the first ever nappy of hers iv ever changed. and then i got to try and feed her with the bottle but she kept gagging so gave up.
I'll Kiss It Away xx
Surrounded by the monitors listening to you sigh
You’re sleeping so peacefully, sometimes you’re smiling in your dreams
Lord, why had it to be her, why didn’t you pick me
Until the day you were born, still hoping they were wrong
But now I’m here to make you strong,
I’m with you..I’ll carry your pain, whenever you fall again
I will help you stand, just reach out your hand
When your world is dark, or you’re hurt in your heart
Come what may, I’ll kiss it away
Come what may, I’ll kiss it away
Sing softly into your ear, your hand is wrapped around my finger
Kiss your eyes, whisper “I am here and this won’t take much longer”
And now we’re having fries, you’re chasing butterflies
And show the world you want to fight, oh yes you do
I’m with you..I’ll carry your pain, whenever you fall again
I will help you stand, just reach out your hand
When your world is dark, or you’re hurt in your heart
Come what may, I’ll kiss it away
In the darkness of the night
I’ll be there to hold you tight
And until my final day, I will guide you, come what may
Come what may…I’ll carry your pain, whenever you fall again
I will help you stand, just reach out your hand
When your world is dark, or you’re hurt in your heart
Come what may, I’ll kiss it away
Come what may, I’ll kiss it away

What the hell?
i spoke to paris at lunchtime cos i thought i should make it up to him cos yesterday night i spoke to him and made him cry cos i was so paranoid and begging him to stay on the fone. so today went a little better he just chatted away. he told me about his thomas the tank advent calendar which he is chuffed to bits about and hes got a new toothbrush. and hes promised next time he sees me hes gona bring his toothbrush to show me. i even managed to make him laugh. and hes got a new coat and hes dead exited about xmas. i was a bit pissy with him :( but managed to keep the paranoia in and not have a complete panic attack when he hung up. whatever lilys doing shes doing it right.. so thanks lily :)
and then this aft after i came off dialisis my half brother aaron called, and gave me my mums brothers number which completely had me in a panic cos like i didnt even no she had a brother and what if hes a complete fucker and aarghh.. so i had to ring aaron back and he had to calm me down and he was like well i was telling him about you yesterday and he wants to get to know his neice and he doesnt want to be pushy and i shud just ring him and that hes really nice. hes got a family and everything. and aaron was just going on about if i speak to him iv got real chance of a family. what the hell am i supposed to do?! i never even knew my mum had a brother? and what the hell am i supposed to say to a man who i have never ever met and never even heard of until now. he had a chance to chance my life. if he knew about me he could of saved my childhood couldnt he. how do you forgive that?
god im so so paranoid now! what if aarons lying? what the hell is this anyway? aarghh
Slow Dance
Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last..
Do you run through each day On the fly?
When you ask
How are you?
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last..
Ever told your child
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say 'Hi'?
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last..
When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day
It is like an unopened gift.
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower.
Hear the music.
Before the song is over.
This poem was written by a terminally ill young girl in a New York Hospital.

my session
but then i got in there and answered a few questions about how my days gone and all that, and the passed out. im such an idiot!
so now im clinging to the remains of my ok mood, and getting more and more paranoid by the minute. i cant hack it anymore. how can i tell that people are still there if there not?!
ffs...
today
just had my weigh in and im 6st 5lb go me im getting fat.. i cant remember what i was last time which was like last week.. i might have been the same or a bit more. crap if ive lost more weight but oh well. cant have everything can i.
and.. drum roll please :) the best bit of news since like the beginning of this year.. blairs off the oxygen now completely and has just got a feeding tube cos she was struggling to do everything at once. shes had a measure up today 2, shes 4lb 9oz, 46cm long, 15cm round her waist (how littles that!) and 14 cm round her head .. shes doing so good.. she was on a vent on monday and was barely feeding at all and having seizures. shes had like 2 or 3 seizures in the last week so shes getting better, shes defo haveing less anyways. shes on some meds for them which i think are working
ive got a psych chat this aft and idk im not in the mood for having a meltdown. why cant i have a good day for once? all they do is ask about crap that i dont want to talk about. i could talk about beau for a lifetime but now i do want to talk about her and how lovely she was and how much i miss her, they want to know about my family! i might just like blurt it all out and then go bounce off walls for the night. whats one day of madness if it helps i suppose..
and its 4months today since beau died. seems like such a long time ago but its nothing at all. it still feels like yesterday. i miss her so much. i got her memory box out early this morning and just cried my eyes out.. ive got her tiny tubes and wristband and her necklace that goes with blairs. her wristband doesnt even fit around 2 of my fingers. by the end it was falling off her wrist thats how little she was.. and ive got all her photos and her blanket and her footprints and everthing. sighh.. it all smells of new baby. i was really upset the other day because i realised i cant remember her face. i can remember everything about her like how she felt and her little feet and her hands, but i cant picture her face. ive got pictures and things but i shouldnt need reminding should i? i know in time when i get over this il remember, and il be able to smile and tall blair all about her big sister. but its right now i want it.

Blair
Lucy: thats good. i'm sticking a label on her saying " cuddles for lucy asap "
Kaylie: il stick it on her doll size nappy shall i
Lucy: yeah!
Lucy: on a large pink post-it
Lucy: actually you better make that a small one... i think a nurse or two might get a bit freaked if it looks like she's morphed into a post it note
and the thing on her cot says babber blair,, west country speak and the post it/blair says lucy cuddle

Blairs MRI and ECG
yesterday i had a really intense councilling session n they were trying out a different way like only asking yes no questions and that was ok but it really tired me out. and then today i had another one but they were asking loads and loads of crap about my sister and like god there lucky enough i mentioned her at all.. and i got really upset and was crying my eyes out. thats one wall i never ever want to look at, never mind break down. and this afternoon i had to see the eating disorder woman who made me eat pasta and i dont even like pasta so that stressed me out and i just couldnt be bothered to put up a fight anymore. and then i had to practice walking. i managed to get all the way down the stairs so go me.. im completely shattered now. ive just been having one big stress out..
im so tired of all this. i know i probably say this every time. but i am. i facy giving up right now.. and lol ive just realised ive been saying i know a lot. thats probably because theres someone in my head saying something against everythign i write. how stupid hey?

Dialisis day again!
and then i was all panicy aswell because i hate not being able to move, not that i would move much i just hate not being able to! freak out..
and than last night i had a weird episode and was weirdly happy and talking really fast and thinking all at once so all my words were in the wrong order. its so frustrating i could cry.
the babys got an ecg tomorrow and then shes gona have an mri to see if its a prob with her brain thats causing the seizures..
and ive been asked what a sezure looks like.. so for people who were wondering..
she jerks her arms out and then in, out and then in and breaths really weirdly, like forgets for 10secs and then breaths again. and she arches her back and flutters her eyelashes and her eyes roll back.
not a nice thing to see your baby do.

Today
to start with last night blair had another seizure and then flatlined. thank god she came back to me and through today shes been stable. shes still on the vent and weighs 4lb 6oz. she even held mummys finger and kicked her legs. i love her so much, but i want to get up and leave because i feel like none of this will come to any good. i cant get close to her because one day il lose her too. and i can feel it. nothings going to go right ever again.
and im still so paranoid. and im on the edge of a killer meltdown i can feel it coming. the voices are getting louder and i cant think right. everythings dazzling again and so intense. and everythings closing in. i dont know how i can be claustrofobic in a ward but whatever. im starting to panic even.
how stupid

A little paranoid today
urgh it was a dialisis day today and it makes me feel so crap. im so sick and dizzy and my bp drops. its the worst thing ever, at the end of the day im so tired, im shattered and in such a bad mood. i mite be sick and weak but i can still tell what i do and dont want to eat. which is nothing at all, im happy just how i am mate.
i shouldnt blame myself but i so do. i miss beau so so much its hard to put into words. when i first lost her, i was so so angry at everyone. now im just tired of being angry, im just angry at myself for letting things happen. maybe its a bit better when its directed in and then no one knows unless i say and then its only me who has to deal with what its actually like.
i feel like a retard, im mad enough as it is. feeling things and hearing things and seeing things, why not add paranoia to the mix?! yous hould try being me for one quarter of a second and youd see how crap it is, having all this shit inside your head that you know isnt real but the proof is there real that it is real but the only thing you have to hold on to is that its not real and that its just you and your head screwing you over..im so paranoid now its crap. when i speak to someone on the phone i can hear their voice and i know there there but then when they hang up they could be anywhere, i dont know there still alive or anything, they could just disapear when im not speaking to them!? how do i know there still there or even were at all. its hard to explain. its the same with texting and internet or whatever. how do i know people arent just there when they talk to me and gone when there not. and ive like got someone else in my head. and uh its hard to explain but sometimes it takes over and im not me anymore and i dont think what i think and i dont say what i say. its the other person. i think i am better in one sence like im not sobbing over beau 24/7 i can worry about other crap now too and pain for beau comes in waves. like in the morning theres a nanosecond where i want to reach and touch my lovely bump.. and then realise that was so so long ago and il never have my bump again, il never have my twins inside me again, il never feel them kick, and il never have that amazing love and the feeling that its ok because im looking after them. ive lost faith in myself and that hurts the same every single day.. but there are moments where i actually make sence. and i can see everthing for what it is, not through angry glasses or hearbroken glasses.
ive been put in seclusion a good few times this week. its not like anythings happened but its just that heavy like nothing matters feeling and i cant even be bothered to get up or eat or just be. i just have a meltdown and thats it for the day.

Burble blog
maybe this proves im more in my head than out loud. im just dazed now. like whoaa whaaatttt. this seems like its just going to be a burble blog today so maybe il tell you what happened today tomorrow. cos todays not making sence
todays full of tingly words that either stab or stroke. no words just are. everything people say either stab me right in the heart and make me gasp that they can be so unfeeling. or just the opposite and im shocked by kindness. just one of those days i suppose.
everythings got its feeling out and its shape. my minds bending everything to say different things. like looking through a megnifying glass.
and everythings really bright and jumping out at me. its making me want to cry im so trapped here having this fucking dialisis. ive got a hole in my harm. whats the point of that. it just hurts. im just so broken. i can feel it today. i cried this morning and it was that heavy heavy crying that only grief makes. when air is squeezed out of your lungs and theres nothing left exept burning eyes and a sore throat.
Aqualung- a few words from Left Behind
Open the curtain,
Let some light in,
I feel so grey,
The world got smashed to pieces,
And put back together
The wrong way.
Open the window,
Let some air in,
I feel so old
There - Where we were happy,
Long ago
Yesterday
Aqualung- a few words from Broken Bones
Picking up broken words
Snipping the tips off
Grinding down the long ones
That wind around your eardrums
Dangerous plastic words
For crowd dispersal
And dumb dumb words
That could blow your head off
Down by the water and the tide keeps rising
This world is burning and I'm terrified
I need a little more time with you
Oh, I just need a little more time with you
Oh please, just a little more time with you
Aqualung- Black Hole
Sooner or later this will fall apart
It takes more than science to save a failing heart
I wanted to keep you and hide you from the sun
but no one could reach you
You say I'm a black hole
Sigularity
My own supernova
A blazing blind catastrophe
And for once I was a star
A long time before that
Somebody's sun
But enough of these pointless noises
Enough of just counting down
This is not a test
If love is not the answer then maybe I misunderstood
Oh the question
Oh there must be someway out of this
Aqualung- Breaking My Heart
I'm losing faith
I'm losing all faith
You're breaking my heart
Breaking my heart
You're breaking my heart again
Don't ask me to start
Ask me start
Don't ask me to start again
Start again
I wanna fight
Afraid to fight
Why don't i fight
And make you see
I hold my breath
And disappear inside myself
I'm losing strength
I'm losing all strength
Aqualung- If I Fall
Swept away
By the wonder of it all
So amazed
Never saw it coming
Left me dazed
And i don't know where to turn
Here and now
Seems i'm standing on the edge
Looking down
I can clearly see your face
In the crowd
Makes me feel i'm not alone
If i fall
Will you catch me
Seems to me I'm exactly where i dreamt I would be
And the view from here is
Something to see
But i need a hand to hold on to
If i fall
Will you catch me

Blair today
i just dont feel like me anymore im a completely diffrent person. ive been havein quite a few meltdowns and i cant stop them i feel them coming and thats it for a few hours. everythings jsut really intense. everything i feel is like the extreme emotion. if im happy im hysterical. if im sad im really depressed. if im angry its meltdown time. and theres just no escape from anything.
and then while all this has been going on i feel like i havent had a chance to really think about beau and idk i just need time to stop and think about her and cry. but i havent had a chance. so now i feel so so guitly. its almost like ive been ignoring her. and its all been building up so its like opened the floodgates now so i cant stop. today is my day to think about beau. but i dont know its hard to describe. i know she would want me to concentrate on blair and worry and things. but its not fair.
i cant get my head round the fact beaus not here, shes not going to be in the incubator when i go see blair. shes not anywhere. ive started being really like horrible to myself. well idk my head tells me over and over shes dead shes dead. but i wont accept it. i have everything ready back home for twins. and i refuse to beleve that when i go home there wont be twins. how can they let that happen.
when i held her for the last time and she closed her eyes and then they didnt open again i wanted her to wake up. i was angry at her for not waking up. i had her in a cot next to my bed for days. i wouldnt let them take her away from me. incase she was sleeping. incase she was just being silly and playing a game with me. i held her and sang to her and whispered her name. nothing brought her back. i didnt try hard enough.
Poem
Your little girl cries too much,
My little girl doesn't make a sound,
Your little girl lies warm in her crib,
My little girl lies cold in the ground,
Your little girl woke up in the night,
My little girl never will,
Your little girl laughs and plays,
My little girl lays still,
Your little girl makes you proud,
But just as proud am i,
For your little girl will learn to walk,
My little girl can FLY.

the morning after the night before
blair is 'ok' nt the best. still under anasthetic and the dr said there gna keep her on the vent until theyre 100% positive shes ok. she had another 2 seizures last night which were scarey as hell. its a hard thing to understand but seeing your 4lb baby girl fitting when theres nothing you can do about it is horrible. i wouldnt wish it on anyone.
it was her 4months birthday yesterday too!
HAPPY 4 MONTH BIRTHDAY BLAIR!!!
you made it. mummys very proud. now concentrate on getting better princess.
and to the mum from cafemom who sent something to her friends asking for prayers. thank you. thank you so much. im getting my faith back in human kindness.
and to all the well wishers and people praying for my babys recovery. thank you.
i hope it works. i think even i have resorted to praying. and hoping. and i thought i had no hope.
