Our beautiful daughter Madison Margret Bamford was born on november 30th 07 in the royal victoria hospital in Belfast at 11.52 am by emergency c section.I'll never forget a moment of that day,when the doctors lifted her from my tummy she let out the loudest cry you could imagine,and i thought all the thing the doctors had been saying were wrong.
I found out i was expecting Madison in April 07,everything was going well until my 23 week scan in August where we were told there was a problem with our babies heart,i'll never forget the look on the ladies face when she told us,and arranged for us to come back that afternoon to speak to a cardiologist via video link in Belfast.I left the hospital in tears not known wat to expect we still were unaware as to how serious madisons condition was,we returned to the hospital that afternoon and spoke to the cardiologist who told us that Madison had tricuspid valve regurgitation and an enlarged right atrium and adviced us that he would arrange an appointment for me to have a more detailed scan of my babies heart the following week.
We traveled to belfast the following week and met the consultant,he did the scan of the heart and told us that the condition of the heart was as he had seen through video link and that there were no definite answer as to what the future held for my precious baby but that at the very least she would be extremly sick for a while after her birth,i suppose looking back,i should have been prepared that there would be a possibility that we'd loose Madison but all i could do was hope.My antenatal care was transfered from Derry to Belfast as the neonatal intensive care unit at our local hospital was not eqquipped to deal with my daughters needs.On 29th november we travelled to belfast for my labour to be induced,this was done,but for some reason Madison heart rate began to rise and i was taken for a section on the thursday morning.The operating theatre was full of peadiatritions waiting to work on madison,and i remember thinking when i heard her cry what was all the fuse about there was obvisouly nothing wrong with my babies lungs,i caught a quick glimpse of her as they whisked her away to the cornor of the room,she was the most beautiful little thing you could every imagine with loads of jet black hair.
After they had stabilized Her in the theatre they took her to the neonatal unit,where she was placed on a ventilater to help her breath.
About an hour later the cardiologist and doctors from the neonatal unit came to see me to tell me that Madisons condition was worse than they had thought and that she was critically ill,They were doing everything they could for her but they didn't think she was going to pull through.Her daddy went to the unit to meet the priest to have Madison baptised,i wasn't able to go up as i was still in recovery.
Later that day when i was able to go to madison her condition had stabilised and i thought the doctors had got it wrong and everything was going to be ok,she fought for the rest of that day,and after 11 oclock i was told to go to the ward and try to rest and if there was any change in her condition that someone would come and get me straight away,so i left and Her daddy stayed for the night.At 6 o clock the following morning i woken and told that madison condition was deteriating and i was needed in the unit straight away,I sat with my daughter that morning they lifted her from her incubator and we got our first cuddle with her,we disscussed her condition with the doctors and it was decided that it would be best if one of the ventilators was turned off and the rest of the equippment removed to let madison slip away in peace
At 12.31pm on friday 30th november our darling Madison grew here wing and became an angel in our arms.
I don't think that i could every put into words how proud and how much I love madison,I'll be eternally gratful for the time We got to spend with Our daughter,and for all the help and support given by all the doctors and nurses at the hospital,We'll never stop loving her and she'll always have a special place with in our hearts.

For your Mummy as Mothers day approaches xx
WHAT MAKES A MOTHER?
I thought of you and closed my eyes and prayed to God today,
I asked what makes a Mother and I know I heard him say.
A Mother has a baby, this we know is true,
But God can you be a Mother, when your baby's not with you?
Yes, you can, he replied with confidence in his voice,
I give many women babies, when they leave it’s not their choice.
Some I send for a lifetime and others for a day,
And some I send to feel your womb but there's no need to stay.
I just don't understand God I want my baby here!
He took a breath and cleared his throat and then I saw a tear.
I wish I could show you what your child is doing today,
If you could see your child smile with other children and say...
We go to earth to learn our lessons of love and life and fear,
My Mummy loved me oh so much, I got to come right here.
I feel so lucky to have a Mum who had so much love for me,
I learned my lesson very quickly, and My Mummy set me free.
I miss my Mummy oh so much but I visit her each day,
When she goes to sleep, on her pillow's where I lay.
I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek and whisper in her ear,
Mummy don't be sad today, I'm your baby and I'm here.
So you see my dear sweet one your children are ok,
Your babies are in my home and this is where they'll stay.
They'll wait for you with me until your lesson there is through,
And on the day that you come home, they'll be at the gates for you.
So now you see what makes a Mother, it's the feeling in your heart,
It's the love you had so much of, right from the very start.
Though some on earth my not realize until their time is done
Remember all the love you have and know that you are a special Mum!
