Joe Richard Brundish, taken from us cruelly & suddenly on 16 September 2007, aged 8 years & 10 months.

Our wonderful son Joe had a difficult few early years before he was diagnosed as autistic and then started to receive the understanding of others. The start of 2007 was the start of a brand new exciting life for Joe - he moved to a new house with a big garden, started a new school and in March 2007 his baby brother Ash arrived! All big big changes for a child with autism but Joe took to his new home, school & baby brother with enthusiasm. In a short space of time he made many friends and came to adore little Ash - even changing nappies!

His future seemed so bright but over just one awful week in September 2007 all of this was cut short.  Misdiagnosed as having tonsillitus, he spent a week off school and went to hospital on the evening of Friday 14 September with suspected meningitus. By the early hours of Saturday we learned he had Leukaemia and by the early hours of Sunday, our darling Joe B had lost his fight for life, aged 8 years & almost 10 months old.. Acute Myeloid Leukaemia stole you away from your mum, dad & baby brother Ash (then aged 5 months), family & friends. We miss you every single day.

Darling Joe, you should be running around with your little brother now. He's 18 months old and looks just like you. You'd be getting excited to be a big boy 10 years old in November. I miss you so much, I look at your photo before I go to sleep at night and when I wake in the morning. I love you so much Best Boy.

Thinking of you all

I have been thinking of y'all a lot, Sam. I was diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma in September of last year. Luckily, the removed the tumor and kidney and I am ok. I have my first scan on March 3rd.

I am preparing to shave my head again on March 28th, and would like to again do this in memory of Joe.

You can contact me at suzysmithATgmail if you have any questions.

I lost my son , i hear myself say
and the person im talking to just turns the other way


Now why did i tell them i dont understand
it was'nt for sympathy or to get a helping hand

I just wanted to tell them i lost something SO DEAR

I wanted them to know that my son was here

So if i upset you im sorry has can be
you will have to forgive me
i could not resist

I just wanted you to know that my son did exist

Happy birthday Joe, hope your partying in heaven, love to your family, Julie (victoria amy langley mum) x x xx

There is always a face before us,
A voice we would love to hear,
A smile we will always remember,
Of the one we love so dear,
We cannot bring the old times back ,
When we were all together,
But those we loved dont go away,
They walk with us forever.xxx

For Joe's mum

People say they’re sorry
And they mean it from the heart
But to understand your heartache
They couldn't even start
To have a loss that you have had
Is too much to understand
We see it and we feel for you
But it's only second hand
You’re the ones who are suffering
And we’re the ones who care
But if there is anything we can do
Call us, we'll be there


Love from Liz Stuart Maxwell's mum
