This is the first time I have looked at this forum. Yesterday I sat in Borders all day reading Carol's second book about children reincarnating into the same family and I'm looking for more info.
My daughter Isabella was born on the 2nd Sept 2001 and died on the 19th of Oct 2002. She was 13 1/2 months old - defineitely too young to leave. She started having seizures when she was 6 months old in March 2002. She had 2 single siezures in March, one single in May, one single in June, 2 singles and 3 doubles in July, 2 singles and 3 doubles in August, 4 doubles in September and 1 double on the 3rd of Oct which was the last time she had seizures before she left. She was diagnosed as having epilepsy and was consequently given medication but I was never comfortable with that diagnosis. We tried on a number of occasions to wean her off the medication because she just wasn't doing well on it. Even when she was fully medicated during all of August she still had 8 seizures. So in September we saw a homeopath who helped us wean Isabella off the medication and gave us homeopathics to use if she did have seizures while coming off the medication. By the beginning of October she was completely off the drugs and she just blossomed from there. She started popping out more teeth and her hair started to grow. We thought she was finally healed and then she left quietly in her sleep some time between 2am when I last breastfed her and 6.12 am when my Mum found her in bed. My husband tried to revive her and when the ambulance arrived they tried too but said that she had been gone for too long.
There are so many things I want to know like who was she before she was my Isabella? Why did she come to experience all those horrible seizures and possible misdiagnoses and then just when we thought we had helped her little body to heal - then she leaves. My Mum thinks she left it right til the last minute to leave and that if she had stayed she could have been ok until she was 5 and then had a massive seizure that left her very damaged and then unable to leave. I honestly don't know. We have been to see a few psychics and mediums since she left and have been told by the majority of them that Isabella will come back to me in my next child and she will be healthy. I'm so scared though - had she worked everything out in this lifetime that she needed to? I couldn't handle it if she came back and had even 1 more seizure as a final ending to that trauma.
She also had a number of birthmarks which the neurologist checked out everytime she went into hospital after having a seizure. One was a strawberry nevi on her head which wasn't there at birth (we only noticed this in photos after she left). It appeared after (not sure when)and was quite red for most of the time (about 1/8 - 1/4 in diameter). It was fading before she left. The other two - one on her knee and one in the crease between her bottom and her leg that looked like a vaccination scar that you would have on her arm. These were the visible ones. When she had a bath she had some other patches on her bottom that appeared white while the rest of her bottom would be pink from the warm water. Mum thinks she saw some of these on her back as well although once she was able to sit unaided she hated it when you tried to lie her back in the bath even though she loved sitting and playing in the water.
There is just so much - I feel like I'm rambling but if anyone could shed some light on any of this it would be much appreciated.
