Here goes something i haven't really shared with bubhub before but i thought i would now because there is never a day that goes by that i don't think of my little man in heaven.

Harley michael
born 02/11/94 passed 26/5/95
Loved forever
:angel:


Still to this day i don't understand why my little man was choosen but i guess there must have been a reason.
25/5/95- Went shopping with my sister and her two boys had kfc for lunch it was a great day out that i asked my sis to stay over for the night because it was her youngest son's 1st birthday the next day, she wasn't going to because she had an appointment that day but stayed anyway she was up early with her boys to get going so she wouldn't be late.
Anyway Harley was still in his bedroom and she was about to leave and i said just wait i'll see if his awake i walked in his room and pulled back his quilt to find him in what i would descibe as a sweat and a odd colour anyway i called my sister down to his room and began to panic not knowing what to do or think, my sister went in and said call 000 she ended up calling but was in shock and couldn't talk so i got on the phone and was told to stay on until i could hear the ambo's then they let me go so i could talk to them and direct them to his room they had a ressus thing but walked into the room and said that there was nothing they could do and told me that it was SIDS i didn't understand why why my son i thought he was gorgeous and there was nothing wrong with him he was healthy and everything and the night before it looked like he was getting ready to crawl and it was my nephew's 1st birthday and my dad never meet him because he lived in Darwin at the time this was really upsetting.
The police arrived the coroner arrived and there was people everywhere they had to photograph things and ask lots of questions it was horrible i just wanted answers as to why my son died but i'll never get them. Also at the time my partner and i never got his autopsy results but i always wonder if it would be possible to get now i think i'm scared i should just let things be.
After the police ,ambo's and Coroner were finihed doing what they needed to i was allowed to have one more hold i was crying my eyes out thinking this isn't happening but then the coroner had to take him away so he could do the autopsy i didn't want him to go but he had to and this is what hurt me as well when the coroner took him he placed him in the front seat of the van wrapped in a yellow blanket i was horrified why didn't they have something like a bassinet to carry them in i was thinking what happens if he had to stop suddenly omg!! imagin driving past in a truck or bus looking down why didn't that coroner have a heart??? mine was shatted.
I couldn't never stay in that house again it felt cold and gloomy i was affraid i never will understand.
That night i could bearly sleep thinking my son was in a cold dark place alone why???
The next day my dad flew in from Darwin he just couldn't understand either although he worried about it when i was a baby but it never crossed his mind that something like this could happen to his grandson, he was in tears this was the first time i'd ever seen my dad cry. i think he would of love to meet Harley, Harley had my dad's name as his second name.
We went and seen Harley in hospital on the sat he was dressed in a whith bonds suit with a little bonnet on to cover up where the coroner had opened him. He looked so peaceful he was such a cheeky little man he was my life i always said if anything happened to him it would kill me but here i am writing down this i guess you just don't know what life is going to throw at you i always say now life is so short enjoy every day as it comes because you just don't know whats around the corner!
At his funeral i was so upset that i couldn't cry any more my eyes had all dried up but i do remember my dad saying his probably looking over you now laughing it was a beautiful service there was heaps of people there.
As weeks went by me or my partner at the time couldn't bring ourselves to pick up his ashes from the funeral home but my dad asked if he could look after them we said yes originally i wanted him to be burried so i could have some where to visit but dad was the one that said what if i move interstate or something i couldn't take him with me.


As it turned out i never stayed with Harleys dad and i did move from sa to nsw and back to sa where i live today.


Years later i meet another guy who i had two daughters to he was violent so i left him when my youngest at the time was 9 months i enjoyed raising my daughters alone.
But a couple of years ago i meet mmy Df who is the father of my ds and dd and everything seems to be going just great although i was very parinod during my pregnancy's and after my children were born but i guess this is just part of life and i'm greatful that i have my 4 kids and that they are perfect.
And i know he is watching over us......


Thanks for reading

MumBron, I am so sorry that Harley passed away :hugs:

SIDS is a horrible, indiscriminate thing. You did nothing to deserve this, and neither did little Harley. I am so sorry that the coroner was insensitive. I think Harley should have been transported in a bassinet, and you should have been able to access his results (I'm pretty sure you'd be legally permitted to chase that up).

He sounds like he was a beautiful little boy, with a family who loved him very much. He was very blessed to have that in his short life. As a christian, I believe that Harley is in heaven, and you will see him again one day :hugs:

I am horrified at the way in which you were treated after finding your son the way you did.

Thankyou ...

Harley will know all about his sisters and brother and be happy that you are finally with a wonderful man who is loving you.

There is no time limit on grief and it will hit harder at some times and feel like a distant memory at others ... if you need to talk, then there are a few bereaved Mum's here on the hub - just check out the support thread.

Harley ... a little man who blessed you with everything he could give!

Play happily sweet boy, until Mummy can see you again ...

You are a super strong woman. I couldn't even imagine what you went through. To say you have lived my worst nightmare is an understatement.

May your sweet little boy rest in peace. :hugs:

Hi mumbron ... Sorry to read your story it is so sad

But can I just say that I now how much that pain hurts

Back in 2000... I lost twin girls my daughters name are Keelie And Kara they would be turning 7 years old on the 22nd of December ..

But can I just tell you today I took a big step for me because up until today I could not got to the Chapel or the Cemetery the pain and fear was to much for me to handle..

But today I went to the see my mother in law at the same hospital that I lost my twins and same thing maid me wont to go in to the Chapel my sister in law was with me and you know it was very calming for me like a feeling that I cant explain but I sat in the very same spot that I sat in on that horrible day ... I had to go and get my husband as he was up with his mum so then we went back together we even took a picture of the Chapel to show our other children then we spoke to my husbands brother and sister in law and asked them to take us to the Cemetery and we went it was so good I felt hole again and put a love heart over that hole that I had so now that I have gone once I can go there all the time and I can take my other 10 children to so they can spend time with there sisters ...

It is very hard loosing a child and the same as you I moved on and now can say I have 10 happy healthy children and my twins in my heart ..

Oh mumbron you are so brave to write up your angel Harleys story on here :angel:.


I have been close to losing my son a few times but the shock finding Harley like that must have been terrible.

Your boy was a blessing while he was here and I am sure he is still with you in spirit.:angel:

Thank you so much for allowing us to share your pain, i honestly lost it half way throught read this and had to leave to the room, i still have tears rolling down my cheeks now, it also made me go an check on my sleeping baby to make sure he was ok. The grief and the pain would have been so overwelming, i cant even start the think what you still go throught. The thought of baby Harley not being restrained in the coroner`s car got me, why would they have a baby capsle or safe harness for bub:no:. I have to say though your dad was amazing to have made sure Harley wasnt buried. A truely inspiraing story that i wont forget. My heart goes out to you, what a truely beautful soul Harley is.:kiss::hugs::kiss::hugs:
