Personal Background

 

ryan

Ive created this site in memory of my baby son ryan franklin. He was born on the 11th febuary 2000 and went with the angels on 29th may 2002.

He was killed by his father who was later sentanced to 7 yrs in prison for his manslaughter, but he has just been released in june 2007 after serving a rubbish 3 yrs and 6 months.

Here is a few words from baby ryan:

I was 2 yrs old when i fell asleep and became an angel the yr was may 2002. In my mummys eyes i was an angel already but i have wings now and watch over my family, but there is one person who i loathe and that is my father lee khair, He was the one who ended my life so violently and killed me.After 2 days of fighting in hospital i could fight no more i was to tired and my body was to small to fight the injuries my evil father inflicted on me. Please be my voice now to support a good campaign.

If anyone would like to talk and doesnt know where to go or what to say im willing to listen to anyone and there stories. Im a much stronger person out of all this and i would like to help anyone in anyway i can, i can also let you know of any upcoming events or marches im on in the hope to get the laws changed. you can email me on cathy.franklin25@talktalk.net  thank you.

I have set up a tribute fund in Ryans name and its up and running now, you can find all details on this at www.justiceforryan.com Im tryignt o raise £5000 so i can set up a charity in Ryans name, so i have a few sponsered events this year and i hope be helping others with the money once i become a charity. I woudl like to donate to the youth association and also help pay to carry on fighting for justice and working hard to change laws. Any help would be kindly appreciated.

The moment that you died
our hearts spilt in two.

The one side filled with memories
the other died with you
we often lay awake at night
when the world is fast asleep
and take a walk down memory lane
with tears apon our cheek

remembering you is easy
we do it every day
but missing you is a heartache
that never goes away
we hold you tighty within our hearts and there you will remain
life has gone on with out you
but it will never be the same

for those who still have there sons
treat them with tender care
you will never know the emptiness
when you turn and there not there
Rest in peace

Mummy and baby ryan....just so happy. I love this photo ryan, of me and you it was taken one yr before the angels came for you.

 

 

If i could have a lifetime wish 

a dream that would come true 

I'd pray to God with all my heart 

for yesterday and you 

A thousand words can't bring you back 

I know because I've tried 

And neither would a million tears 

I know because I've cried 

You left behind a broken heart 

and happy memories too 

I never wanted memories 

I only wanted you. 

 

Go ahead and mention my child, 

The one that died you know. 

Don't worry about hurting me further. 

The depth of my pain doesn't show. 


Don't worry about making me cry 

I'm already crying inside. 

Help me to heal by releasing 

The tears that I try to hide. 


I'm hurt when you just keep silent, 

Pretending he didn't exist. 

I'd rather you mention my child, 

Knowing that he has been missed.

Sharing My Hope - I am so very sorry for the loss of Ryan. My friend and her 11 month old son were killed by the baby's father in 2004. Sometimes I still can't believe it. When they died I found comfort in the Bible. Jesus resurrected at least 3 people, and this shows that there is hope for the dead. The resurrection is a sure hope based on the Bible. At John 5:28, 29 Jesus said "the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." This will happen right here on earth. God's original purpose was for us to live forever on a paradise earth and that hasn't changed. Soon 1 Corinthians 15:54 will be a reality. It speaks of a time when it will be possible to report "Death is swallowed up forever." God yearns to reunite you with Ryan and will soon do so. Isn't it comforting to know? I find comfort in knowing that I'll see my friend and her baby again. This is my hope, and I wanted to share it with you. Feel free to contact me by email. My address is futurehope4u09@yahoo.com. - from Amanda

Latest Memories

Feibia - This story has touched my heart and I am so sad for baby Ryan to have been taken from this earth so tragically by someone he that should have protected him. This life is so sad and people can be so evil, to hurt an innocent child is the lowest and the cruelest. My heart goes out to this little angel who never had a chance to live his life and to his mother....how tragic to live knowing what has happened to your beautiful baby boy but you are a strong women to fight for your baby and to change the law. May you find peace in knowing baby ryan is watching over you now from Gods Garden in heaven. God bless you and baby Ryan.

Rose Karobia - Am surfing the net to look for a poem for my dear friend and i come across this story that really touches my heart,and i really feel so sad that somebody would put an innocent life full of hope to an end what wouldnt such a man do to the person he is sitted next to, it really sad, the joy is that you know baby Ryan wherever he is,he is having lots of fun where there is no pain,no cruel people,he is not suffering like we are, RIP baby Ryan.

Hema Bedasie - There is nothing and no one that can undo the connection between you and your son. Your spirits are forever connected. Love knows no boundaries. He is definitely receiving all the love that you send to him. The physical body is only temporary. It is only a cover for the true Self or the Spirit which is eternal. Ryan has only shed a physical body that could could not hold him anymore. It doesn't mean that he has ceased to exist. Smile so that when he looks down on you he will smile also. Know that he is right there. Feel him with your heart.

djuna - May you rest in peace little baby Ryan. It breaks my heart that you are not here because you had every right but you came for a short while to meet your mother so she can know who she has to be with when it's time. I am sending oceans of love, strength and prayers for your mother and that she be strong. I love you baby Ryan. May you rest in peace.

Renee - May you be safe and happy in Heaven, watching over those who love you still. God bless your family. May happy memories heal their hearts the best they can. One day, you will be back together.
