My name is Cary, I have been married for 7 years. I have a 3 year old little girl and my sweet son, Daniel who passed away at 4 months of age during his day time nap on Oct. 4, 2007. I went to check on him for a second time and he looked like he was still asleep. I had an inner voice telling me to check to see if he was breathing and I turned back to check only to find that he was not breathing. I still can't believe that he is gone. He was a wonderful, healthy and happy baby. I miss him dearly and I think about him every single day. His C.O.D. is natural death/Anoxic/Hypoxic Encephalopathy and Bronchopneumonia due to Infantile Reflux and Aspiration While Sleeping. We are currently in the process for a second opinion from another medical examiner.

Daniel's Dragonfly signs:

It all started when my sister had clipped a dragon fly pin on a beautiful blanket she made for Daniel which was buried with him. So far on different occasions I have had encounters with dragon flies, one has flown towards me, another towards my daughter and another which flew in front of my car on a red light and in the middle of a very busy street, just after I had asked Daniel the night before on his website’s candle for him to keep sending me dragon flies because I know they had come from him. I also saw some dragon flies in the back yard of a house we went to see for sale. My sister happened to be with me during my first encounter of the dragon flies, (the one that flew towards my daughter). My sister and I looked at each other and she said, β€œYou see, Daniel is with us”. As I told my sister about my second encounter which is the one that flew towards me while I was standing in a big line to ride the go-carts in Disney World, I had told her how I had to put my hand on my face to block the dragon fly from bumping into my face! It is then when my sister had mentioned that during the funeral as she placed the beautiful blanket with the dragon fly clip on Daniel, she had told him to always stay close to us and to help guide us. Another dragon fly incident happend after I had decided to put on this springtime plastic table cloth on my table which I had always put on for the last few years (during the spring) Daniel passed away on October, so I haven’t seen this table cloth since before he was born. The night just before that day, I had added Daniel's dragon fly picture with his face on it along with the caption dedicated to him. As I started to put on the table cloth, I noticed for the first time ever, that each of springtime flowers imprinted on the table cloth had dragon flies next to them! I just can’t believe I have never noticed them before! Well, I took it as another sign! Twice so far on different occasions I have also seen dragon flies painted on different items inside two different grocery stores that I had visited lately. The both times I saw these dragon flies, I had been thinking of Daniel and his dragon fly signs that very same day. Other Dragon flies signs have just practically shown up on many different occasions in all shapes and forms and I believe they are like a reminder that my Daniel is really still here with me. It is truly amazing!


Friday, August 15, 2008 - Daniel's most amazing sign yet!

Today around 10:00 my supervisor told me that they needed me to go work at the main office. So I went and during lunch time I ate lunch at their new food court and bought a sub from Subway. I sat near their big window and stared outside and noticed a lot of dragonflies flying around. Suddenly I heard in the background in a low volume a song that reminds me of him and of dragonflies flying around. Still, I did not think much of it since dragonflies happen to be almost everywhere I go these days and even over the roof of my house. I had the whole place practically to myself and all of the sudden a guy decides to sit directly in front of me and blocked most of my view. I continued to eat my sandwich as I looked outside around the guy and I listened to this same song. All of the sudden the guy makes a phone call on his cell phone and his first words are, β€œHello, is this Daniel?” I was so surprised that I opened my eyes wide open and also noticed that the guy was looking at me at the same time!

Later on while working at the 4th floor, I looked outside at a window across me and looked out for more dragonflies, but thought that I was too high up and thought that it would be interesting and perhaps impossible to see a dragonfly fly so high. Time quickly went by and I suddenly looked outside again and saw two dragonflies pop in front of the window about ΒΎ way up and back down again, I thought NO WAY! I kept looking out to see if they would pass by again and sure enough they did – the two dragonflies flew across the middle of the window this time. They were so BIG and beautiful!

What so weird and amazing about all of this is that just last night I watched, β€œDragonfly” the movie that my co-worker told me about after telling her about my dragonfly signs and she mentioned that they were coincidences.

God needed an angel in heaven

When Jesus lived upon the earth so many years ago,
He called the children close to him because he loved them so.....
And with that tenderness of old, that same sweet, gentle way,
He holds your little loved one close within his arms today.....
And you’ll find comfort in your faith that in his home above
The God of little children gives your little one his love....
So think of you little darling lighthearted and happy and free
Playing in God’s promised land where there is joy eternally.

For Daniels Mum x

The Dragonfly - by Unknown Author

Once, in a little pond, in the muddy water under the lily pads, there lived a little water beetle in a community of water beetles. They lived a simple and comfortable life in the pond with few disturbances and interruptions. Once in a while, sadness would come to the community when one of their fellow beetles would climb the stem of a lily pad and would never be seen again. They knew when this happened; their friend was dead, gone forever.

Then, one day, one little water beetle felt an irresistible urge to climb up that stem. However, he was determined that he would not leave forever. He would come back and tell his friends what he had found at the top. When he reached the top and climbed out of the water onto the surface of the lily pad, he was so tired, and the sun felt so warm, that he decided he must take a nap. As he slept, his body changed and when he woke up, he had turned into a beautiful blue-tailed dragonfly with broad wings and a slender body designed for flying.

So, fly he did! And, as he soared he saw the beauty of a whole new world and a far superior way of life to what he had never known existed. Then he remembered his beetle friends and how they were thinking by now he was dead. He wanted to go back to tell them, and explain to them that he was now more alive than he had ever been before. His life had been fulfilled rather than ended. But, his new body would not go down into the water. He could not get back to tell his friends the good news. Then he understood that their time would come, when they, too, would know what he now knew. So, he raised his wings and flew off into his joyous new life!

Happy Birthday In Heaven - by Winnie Lovett

"Happy Birthday Daniel"
It's sure to be the best one yet,
Though you left us here behind.
Did you think that we'd forget?

Your cake this year, will surely be,
A beauty to behold.
With the icing made of Silver,
And the candles made of Gold.

Yes, your birthday in Heaven,
Will be such a grand affair.
And I know you'll look so lovely,
With a halo in your hair.

The Angels will come from everywhere,
To sing your birthday song.
And I know they'll be so happy,
That you've joined, God's Happy Throng.

No I can't send a card this year,
Or give a gift so fine.
So I'll just send a special prayer,
To that wonderful Son of yours.

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

A Birthday In Heaven - Author Unknown

I heard you crying yesterday,
And felt your heart-sent love.
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.

You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My birthday (way up here).
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.

God planned a special day for me,
He told me with a wink.
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think).

Balloons will fill the streets for me,
They float up through the clouds.
And we have lots of friends up here
That make us laugh out loud.

There is a birthday carousel,
Jewelled horses ride the wind,
With music playing, oh so sweet…
The magic never ends.

I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing.
We ride our bikes and play the fool
And sleep in Angel’s wings.

But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies.

With love from your little Angel xxx

The moment that you died
my heart was torn in two,
one side filled with heartache,
the other died with you.
I often lie awake at night,
when the world is fast asleep,
and take a walk down memory lane,
with tears upon my cheeks.
Remembering you is easy,
I do it everyday,
but missing you is heartache
that never goes away.
I hold you tightly within my heart
and there you will remain
