Personal Background
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 was 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 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 http://www.justiceforryan.com/
I have also since Ryans death bought in a Law, it took 7 years to fight the Government but now its in the Coroners and justice bill 2010. The Law is known as Ryans Law and it is to stop coroners and defence lawyers holding onto bodies after violent death. I waited 18 months to bury Ryan due to the defence team wanting another post mortem which never took place.
This will never happen again, they can only hold bodies for maximum of 30 days now. Ryan has left a great legacy!!!

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.

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.
