Ali
The cobwebs are out, the witches hats are securely on (and not burnt this time round!) as Alice celebrates with another party surrounded by her friends…but where’s Sarah? As Alice ponders upon this thought, she gets more than she bargained for with the shocking arrival of a surprise guest, whose choice of transport is certainly not conventional! With a bit of a fright but plenty of smiles, Alice has a very happy and memorable night, which comes as a welcome break from her ongoing pain and treatment. It’s baby fever as Alice cuddles up with cousin Ollie, who already seems to be at ease with the camera, even managing a little dance for us!

I will never have a halloween as much fun as that one was again!
The witch-skirt that you must have spent aaaages on, your absolute determination that yes we would watch the god-awful film through to the end because it WOULD get better (and could you please all shut up until it does!), and especially your scream when you saw Sarah emerging round the corner in her brilliant Jigsaw costume, are all memories which i will treasure forever.
I can’t believe what a short time ago this all was.

Helen’s right, I too can’t believe this was such a short time ago, it was such a fun filled night with plenty of laughs, despite the fact Ali was in so much pain. Halloween will forever be a happy time now, not a scary one, simply because of your smile as I crept round that corner….it was worth slowly melting under that latex mask just to see you laugh so heartily. Missing you more and more as each day passes sweetie….you’re somewhere else now, filled with so much beauty and free of the pain. 2009 is going to be incredibly difficult without you, but knowing you are peaceful and somewhere so beautiful gives us so much comfort. Love you always Ali xxxx

Ali was the best and I am very privileged to have been her Mum. We shared so much together and for that I will always be thankful. Your fun and flightful spirit will stay with me forever. Love you always and thank you sweetheart for leaving me with so much to strive forward for. Love you always xxx
