My Daisy

by Bruce Baillie
(Manalapan, N.J. )

MY DAISY

MY DAISY

My Wife, Daisy Baillie, passed away on Jan 09, 2010...
I wish to share her smiling recent photo, to let
others know how important she has been in my life...

She had metastatic breast cancer, and although we knew the incredible odds against a long survival, I still believed somehow she could go on..

She was my hero.. She survived 3 years, 7 months,
and 26 days from her diagnosis.. She passed away at age 49...

She would smile and brighten any room she ever walked into..
She hid her pain from the world, her family, and me...
She was the strongest person I will have ever met in my lifetime...

I know in my heart that she would have wanted everyone to be happy, she passed from this world with her family and friends by her side...

I believe the kindness in her heart during life immediately transferred her to heaven, with not an instant of delay... I pray for her everyday, and believe we will someday again be together, in a world with no sadness or pain..

Daisy, I LOVE YOU !!!!

Happy 51st Brithday
by: Candida

I found myself thinking about you yesterday. I knew it was a special day not only was it Father's Day but it was your Birthday. I remember the fun times we shared and how you were such a great friend to me in our youth. God Bless you Daisy and your family as well.

Hope

I think about what I would have said, if I had the chance to do it over.
I would have told you:
How Beautiful you were..
How the sun always sparkled in your eyes..
How I woke each day, being thankful for having you in my life...
How, when I left the house each day, that I couldn't wait to see you again...
How much you meant to my life...
I only hope and pray you knew....

We had a candlelit ceremony at your site, on the 1rst anniversary of the day you went to Heaven.
About 15 people, family and friends, made it through the snowstorm, to honor your memory.
Nothing would have kept me away, you always said I was stubborn, the typical Aries, right?
I felt I had to say how I feel about you, despite my shyness. Words came to me that I had to say.
The bells rang just as I started to speak.
I know you heard me. I know you would be proud of the woman your daughter has become.
Every time I look in her eyes, I see You.
You taught me well. You showed me how to become a better person. You said to always do the right thing, just before you passed. Those words pierced my Heart. I know you heard all of us, at the cemetery. It is something I can always believe, that you are still with us, in our Hearts...

Love, or how we perceive it, is elusive. Time on earth short, in perspective...
The fragile nature of life to me means:
Love shows No boundaries, no distinctive definitions.


What once was, has become a memory, to treasure in the mind and heart.. Being alone doesn't mean surrendering to loneliness. There are worse things in life than being alone. Maybe someday, when is least expected, something fills the void, not replacing it. A year passes. Days go by, anger at why, faded. No longer serving a useful purpose.

Questions will Never be answered, just leading to more questions. Happiness is perspective, usually reflected upon when it is behind us. Never give in, or up, when you have fought the Good fight. There are more battles and obstacles on the next horizon. Until we rejoin those we loved, there are more battles, losses and victories to encounter...

(I wrote this on the anniversary of the day you passed away, 1 year ago..)
Daisy, I only hope you knew how much you WERE Loved !!!

Miss you
by: Kathy

It's the eve before you passed a year ago and I just can't believe that you're still gone. It hasn't been the same without you Daisy and it never will be. They say it gets easier as time passes but it just makes me miss you more. Your absence is felt daily but I thank God for all the wonderful memories we shared because that's what keeps you here with me. I love you Daisy. I miss you. God bless you.

Thoughts about all the Christmas' with you came to mind today..
24 years of happiness you brought to everyone around you..
Feeling I don't have the right to relay my sadness anymore to those around me.
Our daughter made everything beautiful, just like you had for all those years, I found myself holding back the tears.
Only you and God know what it is my mind right now.
You made me a better person.
Looking forward to the day I will be able to comprehend the happiness you brought, since I first met you.
It is said, you never know how good you have it, until it is gone.
Well, I did know how good I had it. All along...
Thank You, God, for bringing Daisy into my life.
Struggling for peace is a difficult task.
Each day, a new challenge..
God Bless You, in Heaven, my Daisy <3

Your Daisy

You're doing great. My husband died 2 years ago of cancer aged 41 and what an uninvited journey it has been.

You seem to have a lot of family and friends support on this site but I send you best wishes from Northern Ireland.

A friend from the Daisy's past
by: Candida

Hi Bruce,

I just found out about Daisy. She and I went to school together. Jr High to be exact. She was a close and dear friend to me then and I often thought about her and what she would be up to. My fondest memories of her where, we would skip class and go to her house and listen to her brother Rob's Elton John records. Yes we got into some trouble but it was all good. I am heartbroken, and could kick myself for not having sought out until today. I loved her and I will add you and your child to my list of people to pray for. I am so sorry for your loss.
One of Daisy's childhood friends. Candida

When I look to the sky something tells me you're here with me, You make everything alright...

When I feel like I'm lost something tells me you're here with me,
And I can always find my way when You are here.

Daisy
by: Tara

I had the honor and privilege to work with Daisy for eight years. For me, she was an amazing example of what a mother should be. Daisy had a spirit like no other. Her smile and laughter was contagious. Her legacy will include early detection, unconditional love and taking each day as it comes. I think of her each day, I miss her and will never forget her. xoxo

Hi Lorraine,
Just a note to pass to you that Daisy Baillie sadly passed away
Jan 09, 2010, after heroically surviving several critical bouts with
her complications from breast cancer.
She was a fighter right until her passing, but her situation became
overwhelming during the last few months of her life.
She will be sadly missed by her family and friends, and always had an optimistic view of life,
and never once complained to others of her unfortunate situation...
She attended the 3 or 4 previous Making Strides walks, and numerous Relay for Life walks..
Several members of the family and friends have also donated to the various charities since her passing
in her memory...
There is currently a team forming for the Avon Breast cancer Walk in Sept, in Daisy's
memory. I am glad I got to meet you at this past Making Strides Walk, and I hope to at least arrive
at this years walk again, although it is with great sadness that Daisy will not be with me other than in spirit.
I wish you well, and maybe in the future Daisy's life will be memorialized in various other ways,
as she was a True Example of Courage, Hope, and Love that I pray goes on through her memory.
Thank you again, Daisy's Family

You are Now Free ♥

I miss you Titi Daisy. I am happy you are not in pain anymore. I hope you're having a good time with God. I love you so much. Bye, bye.

My beautiful sister-in-law
by: Kathy

Daisy, I don't know where to begin or how to exactly put into words just how special you are. From the fist day we met you took me into your heart as did I. You were always there, to share experiences of raising children, to hold me up when I felt I needed a lift, to put together my wedding in just a few months........well, just for everything really.

I miss our daily conversations, I treasured them so. I miss you so much Daisy and I'm trying to be strong but I'm not doing such a good job at it sometimes. We watched the Wizard of Oz movie that was taped years ago and there you were as Glenda, the good witch. For that moment, you were there in the room with me and it wasn't until the movie ended that my laughter turned into sadness again. I love you Daisy and miss you dearly.

Thank you for being my second mother. You have taught me so much about being a woman. You never once showed anyone your pain, you just continued to smile and brighten everyone else's lives.

I will always remember you for the strong, beautiful person you are. May God hold you in his arms until we see you again.

Bruce, I saw Daisy twice a year at the dentist and she was always so pleasant and wonderful. I had no idea she was even ill. My heart goes out to you and your family and what a lovely way to pay tribute to such a beautiful "flower"
