About us

Never

When I first finished this web site, I didn't want to upload it on the internet. I felt like it would be too much to handle because people would depend on me, and I felt I would be not be as helpful since I am also suffering from the same grief. I thought having this site would be like telling everyone "I'm okay with the passing of my daughter", and I'm not. I told a friend that I thought I would hold off on the whole thing, but she asked me, When am I ever going to be "okay" with Alana's passing? I told her never.

It's sad that sites like this one need to exist, no one should ever lose a baby, but it happens. Precious Awakening, and other web sites like this are needed because it happens, and no one should have to suffer it alone. Precious Awakening exists now because I will never be okay with Alana's passing, but I have to learn to live my life in a new way with my special family. I will never be the same.

Precious Awakening has been created in honor of my beautiful daughter Alana..

Her life began in May 2007
She was born and went to heaven on
September 25th 2007

Alana in Hawaiian means "Precious; Awakening".

Long before I knew you I picked the name Alana for you, just for you. You woke me up, and rocked my whole world. You gave me meaning. Now you've gone, and have taken a piece of me with you. You are the truest love of my life. I will never ever forget you, my little princess. Don't forget us.

With Eternal Love,
Mommy & Daddy
