Ethan Darren Foster Died at 18.57 on the 17th may 2006 he was 7 years old, he lived with me in st albans he was my only child but has 7 very close cousins, and devoted grandparents and aunties and uncles. He died of bilateral wilms tumors.

Ethan was the bravest most loveable little boy in the world to me, he never complained about his illness he just got on with it, i miss him more and more as each day passes, he was a special boy who loved living life to the full and loved and cared for everyone he met.

Ethans was diagnosed with bilateral wilms cancer in november 2004 up until that time he was never ill had the odd cold but never off of school sick or anything like that, we had a great time spent time on holidays to spain and malta disney land paris, and every year we would spend a weekend at butlins. he loved his family so much he spent time with all his cousins as much as he could, we would often go places with them like farms and zoos, when Ethan was diagnosed i thought my world was falling apart i was so scared, but Ethan just kept going wanting to continue with school when not having treatment, out playing at every oppertunity, giving the nurses hell in the hospitals he just kept being the cheeky loveable little boy he always was, he showed us all courage and strength, he had his operation on the 10th of march i remember thinking at the time that it was the worse thing in the world, his op lasted for 8 hours and was worse than the doctors thought the cancer was very close to the edge so he then had to have intensive chemo and radiotherapy, Ethan sailed through the operation and recovered really well flashing his scar at everyone he saw he was so proud of it. we spent the next 10 months in and out of hospital having treatment where he met more friends and was loved by all. we were then given the all clear on the 25th of april 2006, while He was having his treatment my sister and a family friend raised enough money to get us to America so Ethan could have his dream come true of swimming with the dolphins, so we decided we would go when we had the all clear, So on the 2nd of may 2006 we left for our dream holiday, While there Ethan became increasingly ill and i wanted to do was bring him home, but he so wanted to swim with the dolphins and wouldnt even hear of coming home so we went to the doctors and they said he was constipated we ended up in ER where they gave ethan a scan they found nothing, i decided enough was enough and booked a flight for the friday so Ethan could still swim with the dolphins, which he did and although moaning while there i know he loved it, we flew home and went straight to hospital in watford they transfered us back to Great Ormond Street and on the sunday we got the diagnosis that the cancer was back and very aggressive, we where told that Ethan would have probably between 3 and 6 weeks left to live, now my world fell apart. Ethan had 2 days of radiotherapy and this proved too much for him and on Wednesday 17th of may i was told he might not last the night, so i got into bed with him and sang the songs he loved and we had sung to each other all the time and stroking his hair told him i loved him and i always will, his heart gave up and he peacefully slipped away at 18.57, i will miss him with every breath i take for ever. he truelly is my Hero. the bravest little lad in my world he will never ever be replaced.

░☆░☆░ MERRY CHRISTMAS ░☆░☆░

As we prepare for Christmas,
Our thoughts will be of you,
You always made our Christmases,
The happiest we ever knew.
We'll try our best to celebrate
The birth of Christ our King,
But in our hearts we realise
We've lost our everything.

We've known lots of pleasure,
At times endured pain,
We've lived in the sunshine
And walked in the rain.


But now we're separated
And for a time apart,
But I am not alone-
You're forever in my heart.




Death always seems so sudden,
And it is always sure,
But what is oft' forgotten-
It is not without a cure.


There may be times you miss me,
I sort of hope you do,
But smile when you think of me,
For I'll be waiting for you.


Now there's many things for you to do,
And lots of ways to grow,
So get busy, be happy,and live your life,
Miss me, but let me go.

2011 is upon me another year is gone
i still miss you everyday and night,
i often wonder what your upto in heaven
i wish to see your face in the light.

your brightest smile is always with me
when im feeling down and blue,
i think of all the fun things we did together
and he wonderfulness of you.

at this time of year i find it hard
to look forward to another year apart.
but then i hear you laughing so loud
and a small smile fills my heart.

so i will look forward to 2011
and send you all my love,
lets hope we all have a good one
especially you in heaven above.
