Our beautiful brave daughter has gone, she died at 1.45am on 2nd August 2008. We had gone into hospital on Thursday night at very short notice for her operation the next day. The repair to her valve was successful but her heart function was poor afterwards and although she fought hard to stay with us her heart was just not strong enough. They did everything possible to save her. Simon and I were both with her when she passed away and she was very peaceful. The morning of her operation she was all smiles and laughter and that is how we will remember her. She was the perfect daughter and brought us unimagined happiness. The above photo is our favourite and taken on her birthday it captures her sense of fun and joy perfectly. We can't quite believe we will never see her again and we want her back more that anything. I will end this blog with Joshua's words " She was so special to me , I loved her so much"

Kay,
I have left you a message on Babycentre June board but had to leave one here too. I am so so sorry that Kaitlyn has been taken from you and nothing I say can ease the pain you will all be feeling now.
You had a very special girl and I am sure she touched so many hearts. Hopefully all the happy memories will help you through this tough time.
Rest in Peace Kaitlyn.

Hi Kay,
I have been thinking about you and was wondering how you were doing.
I would really like to send you a private email, but do not have your email and don't want to leave mine on here. If you have the time or the heart and want to send me a pm through ak, I would be really happy.
Lots of hugs and concern,
Susie (noababy)
I have just read your blog about your gorgeous daughter Kaitlyn. I cannot imagine the pain that you all must feel at this time.
She was a beautiful little girl and her story has touched me deeply as I too have a Kaitlyn who is 2.
I hope all the happy times and smiles you shared will help you all to get through this time.
Rest in peace little angel.

Kaitlyn was a very, very beautiful girl. I am so, so sorry to read that she is no longer with you. I cannot imagine how hard it must be for you not to have her with you.
Reading your blog, it's so clear what wonderful parents you are, and what a super big brother she has in Josh. She fought and fought and fought and was so brave.
Rest in peace sweet baby girl.

Kay, I cannot even begin to imagine what you and your family must be going through. I think of you often. Kaitlyn has taught me to take an extra breath before I get cross or annoyed with my own little girl who's only 2 months older than your beautiful girl. May she rest in peace and look after you, her daddy and big brother from up there where all the so loved angel children are. Many hugs, Desirée
Your daughter was so beautiful,
Thank you for sharing her life with everyone. I look forward to writing her name in the sand for you.
Much Love and Hope for your future,
Love Carly x
I came over from Carly's blog - I am so terribly sorry for your loss!
