Rio Carroll
Died at Acorns Hospice Birmingham, 4th May 2007
Aged almost 8 months

Rio was a very much wanted and loved little boy,his mum,dad and big sister were delighted to have him as part of their family.

Rio was a very content little man and was doted on by his proud mum and dad.
He enjoyed his first christmas surrounded by his family and everyone was very happy and life was good.
Rio became ill and was taken to hospital at about 5 months old, doctors were baffled as to what was the cause and eventually Rio was admitted to Birmingham Childrens Hospital where he was diagnosed with Degos Disease.
Unfortunately little is known about Degos Disease and it is particulary rare in babies and small children. There is no known cure for this disease and although Rio fought very hard it soon became known that he would not survive.

Rio was a brave little man and he captured the hearts of everyone who had the pleasure of meeting him.
Doctors and Nurses treating him were baffled and amazed at his strength and will to fight for his little life. Each time the doctors thought Rio would die he seemed to gain a new strength and battle on.
Still the disease attacked Rio's central nervous system and gut, he endured several strokes and was left partially paralysed down one side and lost the sight in one eye.

Throughout all of this Rio remained a courageous little man and still gave his family so much love and laughter.
Just 2 months later the decision was made to take Rio to Acorns Childrens Hospice to spend some quality time with his family and friends before it was time for him to go to heaven.

In his last few days Rio was able to have a swim in the hydro pool with his Daddy and he went for a walk in the gardens with Mummy & Daddy.

Rio passed away in his sleep, lying between Mummy and Daddy and he drifted off to the angels peacefully aged almost 8 months.

The song playing was the song chosen for Rio's funeral - his mummy thinks it sums up Rio perfectly- he was a little fighter and to his family he will always be 'The Worlds Greatest'.

Many Thanks for all the lovely messages for Rio and his family - it is very much appreciated.
Also words cannot express the gratitude felt to all the wonderful staff who cared for Rio at Birmingham Childrens Hospital and at Acorns.

Rest Peacefully Little Man
You will never be forgotten and you are loved and missed every day by all your family and friends.

THINKING OF YOU ALLThe Lovliest Of Memories
--☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆--

The lovliest of memories
Will never fade away.
Though years may come and go,
The joy they brought will stay.

--☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆--

Golden days of childhood;
Running free in fields of flowers,
So happy in our innocence
When all the world was ours.

--☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆--

Special times once shared
With loved ones long since gone,
We hold them in our hearts,
Their memories living on.

--☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆----☆--

The lovliest of memories
Mean more than words can say,
For when we feel downcast
They will chase all cares away.

...............................ANGEL DAY

............................Today is very special,
...........................It comes by once a year.
.....................It’s the day you went to Heaven
.......................And the day you left me here.
.........................................☜♡☞

.........................I know I should be happy,
....................You’re in your Heavenly home.
.......................But instead I feel so empty
............................And oh so all alone.
.........................................☜♡☞

........................Yes, today is very special
.......................The day you grew your wings.
..........................You left so very quickly
........................You didn’t take your things.
.......................................☜♡☞

.......................Instead you left me crying,
.........................Yet hoping all the while
......................That someday I’ll remember
..........................This date with a smile.

God took you gently by the hand,
On wings of love to another land,
Nestled in the clouds up high,
Eternal life he gave you in the sky,

The ones left behind have broken hearts,
Oh they did not want you to depart,
One day you will all meet again,

Saving a place and no more pain,
On wings of love in Heaven above,
Our hearts are filled with lots of love,
Never more then a heart beat away,

Gone too soon,but loved and remembered every single day.

Thinking of you on your birthday Rio
But that is nothing new
For no day dawns and no day ends
Without a thought of you.

Your hand we cannot touch,
But God will take our greetings
To the one we love so much.
