This website is primarily dedicated to the memory and courage of an amazing young girl and to the
continued strength and inspiration of her family. Also I hope that the site will raise awareness of
neuroblastoma which is a fairly rare but particularly serious and nasty form of childhood cancer
that attacks the nervous system.
Christine Shayna Thomas “Christi”, the beloved daughter of Shayne and Angela Thomas, the adored
big sister and best friend of Shayla and te very special friend of Emma and Nicky died on September
19, 2006 at just 9 years old. Christi battled with Neuroblastoma for 4 hard years during which she
was described as "bravely fighting with the strength of a soldier while maintaining the grace and
beauty of a ballerina, happily teaching life’s lessons to everyone she met and touched along the
way". Christi had great loves of animals, people, art, learning, ballet and most of all she was
beautiful, funny and had a great love of life that never, ever left her.
Although our sweet Christi has indeed 'gone too soon' from earth, she will forever live on in the
hearts and minds of her family, friends & thousands of others around the world who knew her in
person and through her website which recorded her incredible journey.
Throughout her illness with the tireless, loving support of her family Christi, worked to support
and raise awareness of neuroblastoma. This work continues in many ways after her death. The most
powerful example of this being an experimental cell line taken from Christi's body is being used in
trials in Amercia to try to establish a cure for this terrible illness - given that only 1 in 20 of
these succeeds it's testament to this amazing girl that hers is that one!
I could never do justice to this incredible, inspirational, beautiful young girl and her wonderful
family but you can find out much more about them all by visiting Christi's website and the blog her
family started during her illness and faithfully continue to update :-
Christi's website : www.christithomas.com
Christi's blog : http://christithomas.blogspot.com
I think the following quote from Christi's mum Angela perfectly sums up our feelings for Christi :
"Without a doubt, she knows she’s loved! Without a doubt, she gave one hell of a fight!"
Friends all over the world continue to love, miss & be inspired by Christi and her family.
We miss you Christi xx
Remembered, missed, wished for and most importantly,m loved always - Christi Thomas (12th May 1997 -
19th September 2006)
****---------------BABY ANGEL------------------- ****
Also through this website we remember the short (less than 24 hours) but important life of my
special niece whom we have come to know as "Baby Angel" - her real name is Christi too but that
makes life more confusing and painful just now - besides a Baby Angel is now what she is.
Our Baby Angel is the much wanted and long waited for, very beautiful baby daughter of my twin
sister Emma. We all know Emma would have been the best "forever mummy" that any girl could wish for
but unfortunately, owing to one dreadful act that happened in the evening of bonfire night 2006, our
sweetheart became an angel on 6th November 2006, not quite 23 hours after she joined us on earth.
Although our Emma was never allowed to be "mummy" in the usual way, she has a different way to be
mummy to our little one and although the pain of that is not measurable, my sister does her little
one, herself and the rest of us very proud indeed.
Although very small, our Baby Angel was, is and will forever be a huge, much loved and very wished
for part of our family. We know that she is being taken good care of in her new place by her "angel
sister" Christi and also Lottie and that she has a very special "angel brother" called Jack - a
beautiful, funny little boy who should never have had to share the same experience as our baby
angel.
It would mean the very world to us and to Baby Angel, if she could both be remembered along with our
other very special angel Christi. This page and all of the friends we have met through the memory of
our beautiful and much loved Christi and our little baby angel mean so very much to us all and we
send you all our love and thanks for thinking of us.
Unfortunately it is sometimes difficult for us to visit Christi & Baby Angels page or those of their
amazing new angel 'family' ' and friends as often as we would like to but we are always mindful that
our girls have introduced us to some very, very special friends. We all really do think of you all
very often and are very grateful to eveyone who shares their time and kindness with us in honour of
our 2 beautiful little angels - thankyou xxx
****---------------EMMA------------------- ****
Also remembering my very much loved twin sister Emma who at last joined her Baby Angel on 19th July
2009 - Emma, my darling "better-half", I love you more than you could imagine & miss you so very
much. I hope that at finally you "know how it feels to be free" & that you have found the happiness
& peace that you so deserve.

PLease angels stay close to us xx share all of your love & mine with baby angel & emma please and also with lottie, jordy & your other speical angels xx wishing, missing, wondering & loving you so very, very much my darlings xx

Can you see my castle
up here in the sky
its got big golden gates
that sparkle in my eyes
Can you see my garden
its full of red flowers
and they smell beautiful
they hold magic powers
I have many new friends
that are all like me
they too are an angel
flying high and free
They watch over families
that like me left behind
and send them angel kisses
they are friends hard to find
I'm glad i'm in heaven
and that I am at peace today
yes I miss my family dear
but I had to go away
God picked me from many
and said that i'm one of the best
and I had completed my lifes journey
and that I had passed the test
So I deserve this castle
that god gave to me
and one day if you're lucky
this castle you will see
Thinking of you always ~~ Love Jane...xxx

I Know Your Missing Me Today
I Feel Your Essence Near.
God Planned A Special Day For Me
He Told Me With A Wink

Jeweld Horses Ride The Wind
With Music Playing. Ho So Sweet....

I know that we can rely on lottie, jordy, baby angel, ruby, jack and all of your other special friends to make sure that your day is extra special - i know that lottie will make sure that you have lots of pink fun & as many hugs as you need and that jordy and baby angel wil make you laugh
Oh darling your 12th birthday brings so much more missing, wishing, wondering and loving with it. I will never understand why but today i need to think about my very special girl - my hero, my angl - our christi. You deserve the most perfect of days.
Stay close to Lottie and your other speical angel friends and I know that you will ask them all to help you to send lots of your special angel stuff to your mum, dad, shayla, emma & everyone else wo needs it.
