Kara Grace Drake-McDonald
November 10th 2007
Newborn
First child born to Cherie & Shawn
Stillborn
We were both so excited to become parents and when we found out that we were going to have a girl we both cried. Our first ultrasound was so exciting and when we saw this tiny little baby on the screen we both just looked at each other and smiled, that was the happiest day of our lives.
As our pregnancy progressed and my belly became larger I began to feel this tiny life growing inside of me, it was the most wonder feeling in the world. Everytime I felt her kick; I was elated. It's a bond that every new mother - to - be talks about. Every doctor's appointment was great the baby was healthy, the heartbeat was strong, it was like music to my ears hearing the gallop of each beat. As time passed and my due date drew near, the anticipation was almost unbearable. I was 38 weeks pregnant and went to my last ultrasound to see if she was in position and her weight because my doctor told me I was having a large baby! In my last doctor's appointment he had told me that the ultrasound showed that she would be around 9 lbs and that she was in position; so everything was normal and the baby was healthy! We were so happy that she would be here soon! A few days had passed since my last doctor's appointment and I began to feel uneasy because her movement had become limited but; they say as you get closer to your due date that the baby is not as active because of limited space. On Saturday I rubbed my right side of my belly and my left side of my stomach shook, I thought "oh thank God" she moved she is fine! A few days passed and I did not feel any movement at all, I knew in my heart that something was not right! I called my doctor and went to his office to be checked. I was so scared when he put the heart doppler on my belly, my worst fear had come true there was no heartbeat! I started crying and screaming why? I don't understand how I can carry my baby for nine months and there be no heartbeat! I would give up my own life just to have her here.
We are the proud parents of Kara Grace Drake - McDonald, 11lbs 2.4 oz.
We had the opportunity to spend time with our beautiful daughter Kara before we said our last goodbye! I know that God has plans for her and that he wanted a special angel. Until we meet again my sweet little Kara at the gates of HEAVEN!
In a baby castle, just beyond your eye,
Your baby plays with angel toys that money cannot buy.
Who are you to wish him back into this world of strife,
No, play on your baby, they'll have eternal life.
At night when all is silent and sleep forsakes your eyes,
You'll hear their tiny footsteps come running to your side
Their little hands caress you so tenderly and sweet,
You'll breathe a prayer and close your eyes and embrace them in your sleep.
Now you have a treasure that you rate above all others
You have known true glory,
You are still their mother.
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

Fairy Castle
In a fairy castle
Just beyond my eyes
My baby plays with angel toys
That money cannot buy
Who am i to wish her back
Into this world of strife
Play on my baby
You have eternal life
At night when all is silent
Yet sleep forsakes my eyes
I hear her tiny footsteps
Come running to my side
Her tiny hands caress me
So tenderly and sweet
I breathe a sigh and say a prayer
Embrace her in my sleep
Now i have a treasure
That i hold above all other
I have known true glory
For i am still her Mother

DEAR PARENTS
I did not die young,
I lived my span of life ,
within your body,
And within your love.
There are so many
who have lived long lives,
And have not been loved as me .
If you would honour me,
Then speak my name
And number me among your family.
If you could honour me ,
Then strive to live in love
For, in that love , I live.
Never, ever doubt
That we will meet again.
Until that happy day,
I will grow with God
And wait for you
my heart goes out to you both on your sad loss of your beautiful baby Kara.we lost our olivia grace,stillborn 5th feb this year. life is so unfair.thinking of you ,xx
