28th JUNE 1994
to
1st SEPT 2006
Bradley was 12 years old when he passed away on his sisters birthday on the 1st September 2006. He
lived with his mum, Angie and sister, Ashleigh and had a little dog called Toby.
He was a very active and fun loving boy who was popular with everyone and loved to play army and
mess around on his bike but his best thing of all was playing on his playstation.
In January 2006 Bradley became poorly with sickness and severe headaches. He went to numerous
hospital appointments but no-body knew what was wrong untill he had an MRI scan on the 31st March
2006 which Bradley was diagnosed with a brain tumor. He was then taken to LGI in Leeds where they
operated 1st April 2006.After 6 weeks of his 1st operation the tumour came back and he had to have a
shunt fitted and also a porta-caf so they could take blood. Bradley then went through Chemotherapy
and Radiotherapy to try and pro-long his life abit longer but unfortunately he could only hang on 40
minutes into his sisters birthday (1st September) which in away shows myself and his sister Ashleigh
the bond they both had together.
Althrough Bradleys short illness he was cared for at home by myself and the rest of the family and
he never complained once. He was a brave little soldier.
Bradley had a wonderful funeral with the theme Scooby Doo, Bradleys favourite cartoon character and
many of his friends attended. I think we gave him a send off to be proud of because everyone he
loved attended and everything he loved was included.
It is Bradleys 13th birthday on the 28th June so this site means alot to me and Bradleys family.
Bradley is very much missed by myself,Ashleigh and the rest of his family also his many friends.

God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not meant to be,
So he put his arms around you
and whispered come to me
With tearful eyes we watched you,
as we saw you pass away.
Although we loved you deeply,
we could not make you stay.
Your Golden Heart stopped beating,
hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.
Thank-you to everyone who visits this site and leaves a message or candle. it means a lot!!!! xxxx
My darling son was taken
From his mothers love
To live with the angels
In heaven up above
I did not have him with me
For the time I should have had
No longer can I hold him
Which makes me very sad?
The pain of losing my son
Shows in every single tear
I spend each day missing you
Longing to have you near
Life for me is lonely now
Without you by my side
My Broken shattered heart
Is very hard to hide
People tell me that time is a healer
That the pain will go away
They don’t understand
That this pain is here to stay
For when you lose a child
There is nothing that can compare
The bond we had at their birth
Will never leave, it’s always there.
Wishing you a great weekend. Love Liz, Stuart's mum x
I opened up a box one day
What treasures did I find!
Letters and some photographs
Of days we left behind
I drifted back to yesterday
The thought was oh, so clear
For just a moment, anyway
It felt like you were here
I smile when I think of you
Sometimes I cry so much
I'm all alone without you now
I crave to feel your touch
But God had other plans for you
An Angel he did find
So now my box of memories
Is all that's left behind.
In my thoughts and prayers. Love Liz, Stuart's mum x
An Eternal Memory of a much loved SON
This is for someone wonderful
as loved as one could be
for you were everything in life
you meant the world,you see
And sometimes life can be unkind
when hearts are torn in two
but nothing ever could compare
to the pain of losing you
But all the love you left behind
forever will live on
and so until we meet again
rest peacefully.dear Son x x x x x

Mother & Son
We are connected my child and I
By an invisible cord not seen by the eye
It's not like the cord that connects you at birth
This cord can't be seen by any on earth
This cord does it work, right from the start
It binds us together, attached to my heart
I know that it's there, though no one can see
This invisible cord from my child to me
The strength of this cord is hard to describe
It can't be destroyed, it can't be denied
Its stronger than any cord man could create
It withstands the test, can hold any weight
And though you are gone, though you're not here with me
The cord is still there but no one can see
It pulls at my heart, I am bruised ~ I am sore
But this cord is my lifeline as never before
I am thankful that God connects us this way
A mother and child death can't take away
In my thoughts and prayers. Love Liz, Stuart's mum xx

When you are lonely,
I wish you love.
When you are down,
I wish you joy.
When you are troubled,
I wish you peace.
When things are complicated,
I wish you simple beauty.
When things are chaotic,
I wish you inner silence.
When things are empty,
I wish you hope.
When you need your Angel,
I wish you faith...to know they are with you...always.
All my love Liz, Stuart Maxwell's mum xx
It's raining outside..
So cold and wet
Is it sunny in heaven?
It is I bet
Water falls from the sky..
Just like my tears..
That I cry
I cry so much..
And I hurt with pain
Since you went to heaven..
I've not been the same
I miss you so much..
As the days go by
My tears fall slowly..
As I wipe my eyes
I think of you..
With joy and pride
Please keep me safe..
And walk by my side
I look up to the sky..
As I think of you with love
My sweet Angel..
In heaven above
