You tube has a lot to answer for! (upsetting....)
My sister sent me a link of a friend I used to work with who was on the Price Is Right. She was talking about her first born who died at birth due to Group Strep B.
I could not open the link so went onto u tube to search for it. Next thing I see all these stories of children who had died. Stupidly I click on one.
It was the story of Riley Ann Sawyers. She was only two and a half when her mum and step dad beat her to death for failing to say 'yes sir' and 'maam'. The things her tiny body endured for the 4 hours that they tortured her is just barbaric. They then dumped her body in the water 2 months after her death. She was dubbed Baby Grace until her indentity was found.
I read the story with tears running down my face and I just cannot get the facts out of my head. She looks a little like Amelia and every time I pick up Amelia I feel crushed that someone could torture their own child like that.
Then I again stupidly read somemore. Kelsey Briggs (another who is the age of our little ones) .. oooh and endless more little babies.
I could not sleep last night as my stomach was so churned with the thoughts of how sick people can be. Amelia woke in the night and I just hugged her close till she was asleep in my arms.
I feel a bit like a car crash rubber necker. I dont want to read anymore but feel compelled to at the same time. its not like me. I think its because the 2 girls are the same age as ours. When Amelia falls down I feel bad for her. How on earth could anyone who loves their child see them so brutally murdered. Luckily both sets of parents are in jail for a very long time, but that does not seem punishment enough.
I just wish I could protect all these beautiful children and get them away from these animals. I wish there was more I could do. Why do people have children if they are only going to hurt them.
Sorry for the rant but feel a bit better putting it down. It just makes me feel so useless........
