We will remember you forever and for always for you are "The Light and Love of Our Lives".
***************************************************
THERE IS NO PAIN GREATER THAN THE DEATH OF A CHILD...
My 19 m/o baby Elijah passed away on Tuesday morning, May 3rd 2005. He would have turned 20 months that following Monday. We've already held his funeral (the day before Mother's Day) but the cause of death is still unknown.
Monday May 2, 2005, Elijah woke with a fever. I let him sleep after breakfast and when he woke for lunch I gave him a peanut butter & jelly sandwich and Tylenol chewable tabs. He laid down for his mid-afternoon nap on our couch in the den. I walked into the den an hour later and saw him sitting up looking at TV; he looked better, but even when he was sick he was always smiling and playful. When my older two boys got home from school we went to the grocery store so that I could make something for dinner that night. After dinner I sat at my computer and my oldest son Roshan asked if I could play his favorite song "Numb (Encore)", and so I did. All three of them...Roshan 9....Lorenzo 4....and Elijah 19 mos were dancing all around me as I watched. Elijah no longer had a fever and I even made a point of saying "My baby's not sick anymore" and picked him up and hugged and kissed him. My husband came around the corner from the kitchen, smiling at the site of Elijah dancing because I had mentioned to him earlier that Elijah had a fever. After the kids were done dancing and playing I brought them all upstairs. I laid Elijah on my bed so that he could fall asleep. I sat on our futon folding the rest of the laundry and watched as he fell asleep. All the while my husband was in the shower. When I finished with the clothes...I grabbed Elijah and picked him up off of my bed, and at that time my husband came out of the shower and saw me carrying Elijah out of our room. He was sleeping but he still was peeking out of his right eye at me and I just smiled. I kept kissing him and smelling his sweet cheeks before I laid him in his playpen...not knowing that it was going to be the last time I would see my baby alive.
No farewell words were spoken,
no time to say goodbye, you were
gone before we knew it, and only
God knows why.
My husband woke me up the next morning as it was routine for us all to get up around 5 a.m. to take him to work. He usually gets the older two boys and I get Elijah, but I just could not get up that morning. My husband then woke me up and told me to look at Elijah. I got up from bed and walked out of our room into the hallway and saw my husband sitting at the top of the steps with his face in his hands, telling me to look at Elijah. My heart was beating really fast and I was afraid of what I was going to see because if it wasn't of anything to worry about my husband would've had Elijah in his arms as he had just left from the kids' room. I could feel in my heart that something was terribly wrong but to what extent I wasn't sure. I walked into the kids' room and over to Elijah's playpen. Elijah was lying on his stomach with his face down in the pillow. I leaned over to pick up Elijah from his playpen and he was already stiff. I turned him over and death was staring at me in the face. It was the scariest thing I have ever seen in my life, and for that moment my heart just stopped. I didn't even feel as if that was my Elijah I was holding. I had to put him down quick and run to the phone. I called 911 and paramedics, police officers and even the fire department showed up at my house that morning. The operator tried to tell me to do CPR on my baby but I just kept crying and yelling that I couldn't even look at my baby...that I couldn't even hold my baby. The paramedics all went up into the room and I know they were doing what they could to resuscitate Elijah but I already knew in my heart that my baby was gone.

Precious Child by Karen Taylor Good
In my dreams, you are alive and well
Precious child, precious child
In my mind, I see you clear as a bell
Precious child, precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart, there is hope
'Cause you are with me still
In my heart, you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
In my plans, I was the first to leave
Precious child, precious child
But in this world, I was left here to grieve
Precious child, my precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart there is hope
And you are with me still
In my heart you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious child, you left too soon,
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
God knows I want to hold you,
See you, touch you
And maybe there's a heaven
And someday I will again
Please know you are not forgotten until then
In my heart you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
merry christmas elijah
