Im going to tell you something, I hope you'll never know
I'll tell you how a heart can break and tears can constantly flow
We lost our baby girl you see, An angel in our eyes!!
God chose to take her hand one day and led her to the skies
But please dont forget our daughter, she was a person too and forever
she will live inside of me and you
So please dont ever tell me that time will heal our pain because not
even time can bring her back again!!

Daughter of Beckie & Chris Brice, Big sister to Harvey, step sister to Charlie. Grandaughter to
Carol & Graham West, Niece to Scot & Natalie West, cousin to Lauren & Taylah West, Loved by all
friends, family and all who knew her.
Kiera was my first born, my gorgeous daughter, my best friend, my whole world and one of my greatest
achievements in life.
Kiera attended St Edwards RC Primary & Nursery School, Nottingham and was a bright intelligent girl
with lots of friends.
She was comical, fun to be with, always covered in glitter or dressed in princess dresses, she was a
true princess.
After being mis-diagnosed for almost a year, Kiera was eventually diagnosed with a rare form of
Leukaemia (JMML) in May 2005 and i thought that was the worst day of my life !! (i was so wrong), in
September 2005, Kiera had a Bone Marrow Transplant at Sheffield Childrens Hospital and for 2 short
months went into remission, 4 days before Kiera's 7th birthday and 5 days before Christmas 2005, we
received the devastating news that Kiera had relapsed.
In April 2006 4 weeks after giving birth to Harvey, we were told Kiera had only a matter of weeks to
live, but in true Kiera style she dug in her heels and put up a fight and we managed to keep her for
18 more weeks until devastatingly on the 8th August 2006 after so much suffering and pain, Kiera
passed away peacefully in her sleep aged 7 years,7 months, 2 weeks & 1 day old.
Although we knew we were loosing Kiera, nothing can actually prepare you for that moment when your
told your child has died, Kiera passed away in my arms with her Daddy, Nanny and Gramps with her, i
am still not sure where that dreadful screaming noise came from it's probably the pain of actually
feeling as though your heart is physically being ripped from your chest, unless as a mother you have
experienced that it is so hard to explain and even then just as undescribeable.
When you loose a child, you don't just loose the here and now, you loose the whole future too, i
will never see my baby go to big school, college, university, see what she would have become, marry
the man of her dreams make me a Nanny, i lost all that the day i lost her too, my whole future.
It's been 3 years & 1 month now since Kiera went and i still haven't a clue how i got from there to
here and to be quite honest if i even want to be here but something inside keeps ticking and making
me get up on a daily basis, why ?? i don't know without the love of my Husband Chris, my wonderful
Parents, my close and extended Family, all my friends, you all know who you are and how much i love
you all and of course my determination to be here for Harvey i don't know as i could carry on.

A Huge thank you from Beckie, Chris & Harvey to all of you who have taken the time to say such kind
things about our beautiful Daughter & Sister, your thoughts and kindness are what gets us through.
With Love to you all.xxx
