Sadly today 13/05/2009 Katie lost her battle with cancer
This was her third battle Katie was always a fighter. Since the day she was born Katie had to cope with alot of health issues, mainly heart problems which later progressed to multiple other problems. As a teen Katie needed a bone marrow transplant during which we nearly lost her, but she somehow pulled through.
Things were rough for all the family when growing up but they somehow pulled through. Katie was never one to trust people with her problems so she kept all her emotions to herself,only telling a few friends who had worked mighty hard to earn her trust.
Katie was not one for telling family about problems unless she really had too. Katie was one to always be assuring everyone she will be ok, and then going off on her own to deal with whatever was on her mind.
Katie was rushed into hospital in the April, to have emergancy surgery after having a fit. Not long after Katie started her chemo, she sadly went into a coma. Katie never got better.
Katie leaves behind 5 brothers and 2 sisters, many nieces and nephews, as well as leaving 5 small children from triplets at 8 months to the oldest at 3yrs
She will be reuniting with her father, husband, mother, and 3 angel babies.
Katie was a devoted mother, wife, sister, friend, and foster parent. Katie had a love of life that was contagious to everyone she came in contact with. She will be dearly missed by family and many close friends
R.I.P Katydid darling, you will never be forgotten and will forever be in are hearts xxx

Would like to add two poems as well somehow they went from the list below
Katie my dear friend
it all seems so unreal
all to sudden it happened
your family have to decide.
They finding it hard
not willing to except
the out come of it all
but have to do what is best
yes it is tough enough
Too many tears cried
and still more to come
but deep down they know
your time has now come.
Your kids will be well cared
for i know this is true
for you have a fantastic family
who loves you so true.
you will always be remembered
forever in their minds
never to be forgotton
you'll aways be remembered
forever in thier hearts.
Katie my darling
you also got true friends
who have stuck by you
till the very end
------------------------------------------------------
You finally gone
could not carry on
cancer beat you
it took you away
It not sank in
that you finally gone
only been a few hours
don't want to believe
I know you now better
free from the pain
just now the heartache
is all that remains
had so many chats
the past few years
found things in common
in many ways
People judged you
and some did not
i loved you dear Katie
you have a place in my heart
Some people didn't care
or even understand
but you knew your true friends
and kept them close to your heart
I miss you so much
will miss all are chats
but darling Katie
your memery lives on
I miss you so much! I've found the letters you left for the kids, they were so hard to see. I drove past the house yesterday. It's the first time I've been able to really cry since you've been gone. It's been nearly 3 years and I still can't believe it sometimes. I pick up the phone sometimes to call you, have the number dialed only to realise you're not here anymore. You would have loved Sami, she's so much like you. I miss you so much more now that she's here. I miss you so so much Katie. I love you!

FOREVER IN MY HEART AND NEVER TO BE FORGOTTON MY DEAR FRIEND XX
It's coming close to a year now, it still seems like just yesterday and those last moment still haunt me just as much as they did then.
All the kiddos are doing well. Ethan is all clear again and recovering well. Mearamoo and Bri are both being typical toddlers and testing every boundary with regular tantrums. The boys are both doing so well! Isaiah has started reading and can almost write all the letters of the alphabet!
We still look up at the sky often at night and think about you and share stories. Whenever it rains, moo stands at the window and calls out for you.
We laugh and we cry together but some days are so damn hard! I don't know how you managed all the kids together day in and day out without ever yelling at that, you still amaze me!
I miss you Katielou! Dammit I miss you
Katie my friend from the stars
missing you as always hun, ya family has had to deal with more health issues in the family, you already know of them anyway. Your sister had her long awaited op an is doing good with the recovery, will take time for ya sister to be back to normal health.
I am now asking you to please watch over one of your triplets more than ever as he now faces a touch time ahead of his little self, he is a really sick lil boy.
love ya hunnie xx
Katie,
This is the first time I have been able to bring myself to write. I miss you girl. I never knew losing a friend on line could hurt this bad. Your children are growing so big it is so hard to believe. I have kept in touch with Paul and Rach and all I can say is you are one lucky girl they are amazing. They have helped me get through so much. There is so much I want to say but cant yet. You were my rock and inspiration always there for me. Thanks for coming into my life even though it was for only a short time. I will always be here for your kids and your brother and sister. I may not be close but I want to get to know them better and at the same time learn more about the wonderful brave person you were. hugs gf and one day we will meet and I will kick u in the ass!!!!!!! JK sue
4 months
its been 4 months today since you went to the angels loulou. some days it seems like so long and others like it was just yesterday. I love you forever and ever baby sis. I miss you!
Hey my Katydid, I'm really missing you tonight.
The kiddos are doing well, Mearamoo is about to cut a tooth finally! They're loving spending time at the beach.
We're all trying to be ok, Ben and his monsters are getting ready to head back home and Rach is trying to decide what to do since leaving James. She was able to see she was in a bad place and was brave enough to leave, so she's still thinking about what's next.
The babies are nearly 1 my sweet katie. They all say mama now and they smile whenever they see a photo of you. Meara's smile is the biggest, but also the saddest.
I miss you katydid! My heart aches for you everytime I smell fresh cut grass or the freshness of the sea breeze.
I Love you forever and ever. Always in our hearts. xoxoxo

Cancer is a word I do not like to share.
For cancer took our loved ones life..
And that's not very fair
Cancer is so cruel.
It takes so many loved ones away,
I pray to God they find a cure for Cancer.
And I hope it happens today.
Our loved ones died from Cancer.
And it breaks my heart to say..
Why did God not find a cure for Cancer..
And let our loved ones stay.
Cancer has always been known as the BIG C.
God why take my loved one away from me?
We shall beat this horrible disease one day.
And deep in my heart my loved one will stay.
God please take care of my loved one above.
Hold them close with all your love.
Take their hand and please show them the light.
For I loved my love one with all of my might.
I know that my loved one is safe in your keep.
But I still miss my loved one and I still weep.
I will promise to try and stay strong today.
And say my prayers night and day.
So please dear God I am begging you now..
Please find a cure for Cancer somehow.
I will be a good person and I shall say a prayer with love.
So please dear God take care of my angel..
In heaven up above.

A message from your favourite mongrel from the west island (a.k.a. aussie don):
This poem is one that immediately brought tears to my eyes, I found it while Katie was in a coma.
What You Mean To Me
by Baby Bad
I never came here looking for a single soul.
But now that I found you I want you to know
I had forgotten how to smile, how to laugh, how to be me
I had forgotten the sweet pleasure of a heart filled with glee.
I was intoxicated with life... work and family
Never stopping for fun... it just wasn't there you see.
Since I have found you... it's been a complete turn around
I smile and laugh again... not much gets me down.
I get excited when I see you on ICQ
Wondering what it is today we will do...
Chatting, laughing and the games we play
You make my every day.
It seems so silly on just a machine
How someone can reach you... become your everything.
