Welcome to all our Compassionate Friends and especially those newly bereaved who are receiving our
newsletter for the first time. Having to accept that a loved one is no longer with us is difficult to bear
and it can be especially hard to deal with the loss of our beautiful children. All that Compassionate
Friends can do is encourage you to lean on us when you need a place to grieve. We all know the pain
caused by the death of a child and we really want to help.

I know I am still with you in your prayers, your thought, your heart. And though you cannot see me, I will
always be a part of life’s sweet celebrations in those times when you reflect on how, though things are
different, through our love, we still connect. We’ll see each other someday when our spirits all are free, until
then, I am with you because you remember me.

Our Christmas Angel
Heather Colleen Barilla
1991 - 1996
Remembering the happy times,
so vivid in our minds.
The love of life you had and shared,
with those you left behind.
We miss the way your eyes light up,
when someone made you smile.
The memories of togetherness,
make our lives worthwhile.
Loving you, the way we do,
we thought you’d like to know.
We’re remembering the happy times,
and never “letting go.”
Missing you still,
Loving you always,
Your family
Christmas isn't quite the same
and there's a reason
Without you Jordyn it's very hard
to celebrate the season
But you'll never be forgotten,
you'll live forever more
One very special son
so easy to adore
The memories always bring a smile
and real appreciation
Of all the Christmas times we've shared
in joyful celebration
Your smile was amazing,
such a treasure to behold
You were such a ray of sunshine
with a heart of gold
Christmas time seems empty now
a scene that once you graced
For something's lost forever
that can never be replaced
Jordyn Brene MacDonald
1981 - 2009
Love always Mom, Dad and BJ

To my son I love you so, you are so
special I hope you know.
With every day that passes by,
you’re more the twinkle in my eye.
So loving so giving a heart of gold,
always my baby even when I'm old.
Your love shines through for all to see,
I feel so proud, you are a part of me.
Another year passes.
This is life …
Not sure when I will ever accept the
fact you are gone ...
Although Life goes on ...
Yours and Mine …
Always in my Heart …
Deep in my Soul …
Till We Meet Again …
My Baby … Love Mom
To my angel, so precious, who lives in heaven above. Look around you and see all the children for
you to be with and love. There were many before you and many since and many will come in time.
Make them your special friends, their moms and dads are mine.

1987 - 2010
Dear Lacey,
Well, another year has gone by and we have surpassed another
milestone. Shelby turned 24 this year. How is it possible your
baby sister is now older than you? Yes it's true life goes on but
it will never be the same.
Today I looked into the sky and it was beautiful. Then I realized
it's because you are there. You fly with the angels now but part
of you will always be with us.
Love Mom, Dad, Rebecca & Shelby

Another Christmas coming…… we
didn’t think we’d survive the first one,
never mind 10 more and counting, BUT
never a day goes by, or an event or
family occasion, that we don’t miss
your presence, your smile, your voice
and your love. We know you are safe
somewhere else but it is not here with
us and we still mourn that every day.
We go on with life and sometimes we
even laugh but how we wish you could
be here……………………
Miss you, Love you and Wish you were
here!!! Our very own, very special
Christmas Elf and Angel!!!!!
We can only believe that you are having a very special Christmas in Heaven
and how beautiful it must be………….
Love Mom and Dad
and all your family

Love you to the moon and back.
Happy second birthday my little man xoxo

EMERSON MICHAEL OLAIN
2011 — 2013
How could this have happened, it seems so wrong
That such a perfect being, can just be up and gone
You left your brother all alone, the one you loved so dear
He misses his playmate & can’t believe it has been one year
We miss your beautiful laugh and big silly smile
And want to walk and hold your hand for a minute or a mile
We had so much to show and teach you
You changed our lives forever & will never be forgotten,
of this we can be certain
When our time is up, we know you will be there
And the joy on our face, will never disappear
We love and miss you Emer, and cannot wait to see you smile
But for now we must wait, as your brother still needs us for a while
A Love Story — The mention of my child's name may bring tears to my eyes, but it never fails to bring
music to my ears. If you are really my friend, let me hear the beautiful music of his name. It soothes my
broken heart and sings to my soul.
By Nancy Williams, TCF/New Jersey, reprinted from The Compassionate Friends E-Newsletter, October 2014
Grieving allows us to heal, to remember with love rather than pain. It is a sorting process. One by one
you let go of the things that have gone and you mourn for them. One by one you take hold of the things
that have become a part of who you are and build again.

January 27, 2015 will be Hailey’s Happy Heavenly 2nd birthday for our family. Hailey was born at 02:42 hours with
complications that we had not anticipated. After a few
minutes of working on Hailey's breathing, the NICU doctor
and nurses took her from the delivery room to NICU. They did
allow Hailey to be held by her mom, but was only able to hold her for a couple of seconds. The next few hours were spend in angst, while dozing in and
out of sleep. When the NICU doctors came to our room, they explained that
we needed to be prepared for all possible outcomes and that we should come
see our baby girl while we still could. This immediately sent fear, concern,
anxiety, and uncertainty through us as we walked arm in arm to the NICU of
RUH.
When we arrived at the NICU our eyes were opened to an area of healthcare
that we had zero experience with and were ill prepared for. For the first time
it really sank into the pits of our stomachs of how dire a situation Hailey really was in. There were multiple tubes, interveinious lines, and a ventilator
connected to Hailey and all her vitals were shown on the monitor and they told her challenging situation with the
constant alarms. We were told that her lungs were smaller than normal and this was the reason she was having
respiratory distress. At this time we could not touch her delicate little being as it was to distressing for her.
While this was understandable, it was very difficult not to be able to touch our 6lb 3oz 19" little gift that we had
been given. Later on that morning, we were given more difficult heart wrenching news. Further testing had revealed to the doctors that Hailey had a hole in the ventricle wall between the left and right chambers (VSD) and
the doctors were just trying to keep Hailey alive for the day. If she survived they would perform more tests to
further understand the situation. Over the next few days, I grew very tired of hearing the negative results of these
diagnostic tests as I wondered how much more "bad" news there could possibly be. The following week we received a diagnosis of Trisomy 13, a rare genetic disorder involving and extra 13th chromosome, which was the
reason for Hailey's challenges with her heart and lungs. Over the next 15 weeks we experienced the various children's units of RUH as Hailey Rayelle showed her desire to travel around to see the different sights, views and
countless medical staff that cared for her.
It is very evident that Hailey liked to travel a lot and we had hoped that she would have settled
down a bit and saved her air miles to travel to more desirable places – like home!! Unfortunately, at
06:21 A.M on May 18th 2013, at 111 days old; after a dire struggle with infection, God and Hailey
decided that her next destination would be Heaven.
Hailey Rayelle; you are missed and loved every hour of every day by many who met you and many who didn’t.
The hopes and dreams that parents have for their children, along
with not seeing you grow into who you may have been is the
shared grief of all. Through the grief of loosing you there have
been and hopefully will continue to be many tributes for the benefits of many others who may face only some of the struggles that
you did. Through generous donations in your name to the Children’s Hospital Foundation of Saskatchewan, financial donations
to the SOFT Foundation, medical awareness and education on
Trisomy, support of new families who welcome, cherish and protect the lives of their children with a Trisomy enhancement, or
newly bereaved parents who have also lost their kiddos as these
are only a few of the rainbows that are performed in your
memory. For these and possibly other blessings to come you
were, are and always will be our gift from God.
You are in my heart forever my little Love,
Daddy

This year's Worldwide Candle Lighting will be held on Sunday, December 14th.The Worldwide Candle
Lighting is held every year on the second Sunday in December, at 7:00 PM in every time zone. As candles
burn down in one time zone, they are lit in the next, creating a 24-hour wave of light that encircles the globe.
TCF invites you to join us in this special day of remembrance.
We invite all bereaved parents and siblings to join us in remembering our children, sisters, brothers,
grandchildren and nieces/nephews in a very special candle lighting program. It is a special time that we set
aside for us to remember our precious children whom we miss so dearly.
We encourage you to bring a photograph or memento (for example, a footprint or a special keepsake) of
your child for the memorial display table.
Individual candles will be provided, and a special colored candle will be lit and placed with the pictures or
mementos of our lost loved ones.
If you wish that your child’s picture be added to the slide presentation played during the evening, please
email a photo (medium to high resolution if possible) to [email protected] prior to December 12,
2014. Be sure to include your child’s full name, your name and indicate you wish for the photo to appear
in the slide presentation during the candle lighting program.
Scanning photos at the candle lighting program will not be available this year.
A special part of this evening will be the sharing and visiting with other Compassionate Friends during the
potluck dinner and following the candle lighting program. We hope that you will come and join us.
The Pot Luck Supper will be held at 5:30 p.m. Sunday December 14,
2014 in the Edwards Family Centre, 333 - 4th Avenue North,
Saskatoon, followed by the Candle Lighting Ceremony to take place
between 7:00-8:00 p.m. Please bring a prepared dish, as there is no
oven on site though plug-ins are available for a slow cooker for
example. Besides on-street parking, people may park across the street
in the Saskatoon Funeral Home’s parking lot. The doors of the Edwards
Family Centre will open at 5:00 p.m.

I just swallow the pain down
and paint on a smile.
I go on to getting on,
and pretend to be normal for a while.
It never works for long but,
at least they can't see,
just exactly what not knowing you
has done to me.
Maybe it would be different had
I brought you home,
or maybe they'd understand if you had
met them, or had a headstone.
But the truth is, this sadness. . .
well it solely belongs to me.
TCF Saskatoon Chapter
No one in the world mourns
lost babies they didn't see.
I didn't see you either,
but I felt you move inside.
I did see your image on the screen,
as the doctor said you'd died.
The heartbeats they listened for,
they never played out loud,
all I have to show of you is a
picture of a shadow, of that I am proud.

and photos in memory of your precious child/children are
given priority in the newsletter.
Our TCF Saskatoon Chapter Lending Library is available for your use.
If you have checked out a book,
please return it when you are
through so others may use it. We
have many new members in recent
months who may benefit from
reading them.
We gratefully acknowledge
the support of Bill and
Eleanor Edwards and the
Edwards Family Centre in
their continuing support of
TCF Saskatoon.
