Olly Douglas Bennett was born at 1:48am on the 21st May 2007 weighing 5lb14oz and looking gorgeous.
On the 20th May 2007 I went into hospital to be induced at 40+9weeks. After a rather eventful birth
my gorgeous little boy arrived and brightened up my life. We couldnt believe it when the midwife
said he was only 5lb14oz!!!! I had been convinced all through the pregnancy that Olly would be
roughly 9lb yet here he was absolutely tiny and gorgeous.
When we got up to the maternity ward after the birth i remember thinking something wasnt right.
About an hour later the midwife took us down to the NICU because Olly wasnt regulating his body
temperature properly and was getting cold. He was also finding it quite hard to breathe.
Once we got to the NICU the paediatricians hooked him up to a few monitors and gave him a big orange
box that sat over his head and pumped oxygen into it so he was breathing a slightly higher
concentration of oxygen to help him out. His breathing settled quite well with that and they were
fairly happy with it.
Olly had been uninterested in feeding and hadnt eaten at all yet so his blood sugars had dropped. He
showed no interest in feeding at all really so they put him on a dextrose drip to keep his blood
sugars up and i had to express what milk i had for them to give him via an NGT (nasogastric
tube/tube directly to the stomach down his nose). He was started on 1ml of milk every 2hrs and
tolerated that fairly well but with a few ups and downs to start with.
They also put him on i.v.anitibiotics in case of infection and did a chest xray to check his lungs
and chest. His lungs came back clear but they did see in the xray that Olly had fractured his
collarbone on both sides. They told me this was not a problem and should heal up in about 2weeks. He
was given paracetamol for any pain (also for any pain caused by the kiwi lump).
Well Olly stayed on the NICU and I stayed up in the maternity ward. He did really well and soon came
off the oxygen although was still in an incubator and had to have a few days on phototherapy for
jaundice levels.
It had been mentioned to us that a few of Olly's features suggested he may have a chromosomal
abnormality and when he was a week old we got terrible news that our darling little boy was actually
very ill.
Olly had a Double Trisomy. The cells in his body had either an extra copy of Chromosome 9 or
Chromosome 18. They had never seem a Double Trisomy before and were surprised how my little boy had
survived to be born. A genetecist explained that of the two Trisomies that Olly had one would, in
its full form, have killed him before birth and the other would more than likely be fatal within a
year.
Olly also had multiple Ventricular Septal Defects (holes in his heart) and as he grew older his
heart began to fail.
It was a month before Olly came home with us still tube fed and tiny.
He lit up my life and the lives of everyone who met him during his short time with us. He fought so
hard to be with us in the first place and not once did he seem to give up. Olly was truly a miracle
and he amazed everyone by fighting so hard for five and a half months before it became too much and
he left to be with the angels.
All i hope is that my darling sweetheart is now in no pain and can rest as he deserves to after
fighting so much. So much more than any person should have to.
Olly i miss you dearly my baby. You were everything to me and I will never stop thinking of you
everyday. Time may mean I have to get on with things but it will never heal the pain of losing you.
All my love now and forever Mummy xxx

You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My birthday (way up here)
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.
♥♥
God planned a special day for me
He told me with a wink
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think)
♥♥
I’m getting lots of hugs from God
He’s really good at that
And every time that I walk by
He gives my head a pat
♥♥
Balloons will fill the streets for me
They float up through the clouds
And we have lots of clowns up here
That make us laugh out loud
♥♥
There is a birthday carousel
Jeweled horses ride the wind
With music playing oh so sweet…
The magic never ends
♥♥
I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing
We ride our bikes and play jump rope
And sleep in Angel’s wings
♥♥
We’ll have our cake and ice cream
And open gifts, surprise!
But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies

♥♥ TINY LITTLE HALO ♥♥
Tiny little fingers
Tiny little toes
Tiny rosebud lips of pink
A miracle I know
I couldn't wait to see you
And hold you close to me
But found, instead, that some things
Are never meant to be
Tiny little halo
Above your tiny head
I know that God has chosen you
To be with him instead

A Birthday In Heaven - Author Unknown
I heard you crying yesterday,
And felt your heart-sent love.
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.
You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My birthday (way up here).
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.
God planned a special day for me,
He told me with a wink.
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think).
Balloons will fill the streets for me,
They float up through the clouds.
And we have lots of friends up here
That make us laugh out loud.
There is a birthday carousel,
Jewelled horses ride the wind,
With music playing, oh so sweet…
The magic never ends.
I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing.
We ride our bikes and play the fool
And sleep in Angel’s wings.
But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies.
Sending you hugs todayxx
Such a hard day for all of us grieving parents :( Its my daughters 15th birthday in heaven today xxxx
Angel Babies - by Unknown Author
Over the rainbow, way up high,
Past fluffy white clouds the Angel babies fly.
With the sun's golden rays shining bright overhead,
Tumble and bumble they bounce out of bed.
Good morning, sun! The day has begun!
With delicate wings and sweet little faces,
They dance and they play and they race flying races.
Then, swooping and looping down through a cloud,
Or sliding and riding and singing out loud,
Wiggle and giggle, some fast and some slow,
The Angel babies fly to the earth down below.
Not everyone knows this, but truly it's true --
Little Angel babies have big jobs to do!
In gardens and meadows, they coax forth the flowers
With sunlight and love and gentle rain showers.
In fields and forests they spread soft white wings,
Sharing kindness and joy with all living things.
Small animal, babies in quiet green places
Rejoice in warm smiles from sweet Angel faces.
In backyards and baskets, on fireside rugs,
Small creatures are cuddles in soft Angel hugs.
Soon evening is bright with red-orange light,
And day slowly fades to make way for the night.
As good little children curl up in their beds,
The Angels bring sweet dreams to young sleepyheads.
Then the sound of a horn only Angels can hear
Calls out to them all,here and there, far and near.
It beckons them back from wherever they roam,
Work is done for the day! Now it's time to go home.
Blinking and winking, bright stars in the sky
Twinkle and shine as the Angels fly by -- so softly singing a sweet Lullaby.
Yawning and stretching, they climb in their beds.
Cloud blankets warm bodies, cloud pillows rest heads.
Snuggled in tight with the moon shining bright
Sleep tight, sweet dreams, good night.
Good night Olly, Angel baby, Sleep Tight xx

Olly Was Special ............. by Sam Winson
Olly was so very, very special,
And was so from the start.
You held him in your arms,
But mainly in your heart.
And like a single drop of rain,
That on still waters fall.
His life ripples did make,
And touched the lives of all.
He's gone to play with Angels,
In heaven up above.
So keep your special memories,
And treasure them with love.
Although your darling son,
Was with you just a while,
He'll live on in your heart,
With a sweet remembered smile.

When tomorrow starts without me
And I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today
While thinking of the many things
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you.
And each time that you think of me
I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name
And took me by the hand.
If we could bring you back again,
For one more hour or day,
We’d express all our unspoken love;
We’d have countless things to say.
If we could bring you back again,
We’d say we treasured you,
And that your presence in our lives
Meant more than we ever knew.
If we could bring you back again,
To tell you what we should,
You’d know how much we miss you now,
And if we could, we would.
Our memories build a special bridge
When loved ones have to part.
To help us feel we're with them still
And soothe a grieving heart.
Our memories span the years we shared,
Preserving ties that bind.
They build a special bridge of love
And bring us peace of mind.
As New Year approaches
It seems harder this time of year
We miss you so much more
The only thing that gets us through
Are the memories of before
So here's a card just for you
To show how much we care
I know your waiting with the angels
One day I'll see you there.
Thoughts Today Memories Forever
