★In memory of a special Daughter, Sister, Grand-Daughter and friend★
♥Kate Cathleen Louise Dougal♥
♥♥ Kate was just 10 years and 3 months old when she fell asleep on the 18th January 1996, she
was born in Nottingham on the 26th October 1985, although she should had been a christmas baby as
she was born 7 weeks early. She grew up in Long Eaton Nottingham until 1993 when she was 7, she told
me her and her family were moving to Breaston Derbyshire..
i can still remember what i said to her actually !!
i said ' you cant move what will i do without a best friend? ' sadly they moved and we lost contact
(as when your 7 you dont think to keep in contact with your friends)
Kates proper name is Katie but when she was 8 she decided she wanted to be called Kate instead
then 3 years later the news came on ....that a 10 year old girl had died at a dentist in Long
Eaton....
i didnt think nothing of it until.... i heard....
10 year old Katie Dougal........
After what should had been a routine visit to the dentist to repair 2 chipped teeth following a
school playground accident, Kate sadly passed away after vital equipment was not used while she was
under general anaesthetic causing her to suffer heart failure. (newspaper reports with more
infomation as to what happened to Kate is at the bottom of the page)
Kate was a lovely girl to know i'd known her since we was about 2 year old little toddlers in
nursery.. i remember we grew up together....had fun together....
★ ★FRIENDS ARE LIKE ANGELS★ ★
i felt really sad after that........ the years passed i tried to get on with life,(as when your a
teenager your trying to get somewhere in life........) i never forgot Katie though....
Then in 2001 i was reading a paper and there was a story on Kate....i managed to get in contact with
her mum,Trish....luckily she remembered me and wrote back.... she told me which cemetary Kate was
buried in... the exact date she died and her birthday as sadly i could not remember them....
Then in 2006 just before kates 10 year anniversary.... something kept telling me to find kates
grave.... so on the day of January 18th 2006 me and my sister went to the cemetary and looked....we
was ' looking blind.. ' as we had no idea where abouts in this big cemetary she'd be.... we managed
to find dates around 1992.... so we followed them up... up went the dates..... then luckily as if by
chance there she was.....i'd found her.
Now i know where Kates resting place is i go up as often as i can take her flowers and orniments.
Kate has sister Chantelle, and brothers, James, Daniel, Michael, Liam and Aaron. She was a lovely
girl she always had a smile on her face and was a polite but very shy girl.
Kate really liked dinosaurs i remember we went on a school trip to see replica dinosours. Kates
favorite video before she passed away was the little mermaid, she liked Cher's song one by one and
michael Jacksons earth song. Her favourite colour was blue, even though most girls like pink!!
she was a special friend to quite a lot of people she will always be missed and remembered by
everyone who knew her, nobody can stilll believe she has gone to heaven or even how or why she was
sadly taken so soon at such a young age. Kate i hope you have found peace sweetheart. Now playing
with all the other angels x x x x Sleep tight angel ♥♥
★♥Remembered and missed always never more then a thought away♥★

''FRIENDS ARE LIKE ANGELS''
Our friends are like angels,
Who brighten our days.
In all kinds of wonderful,
Magical ways.
Their thoughtfulness comes,
As a gift from above.
And we feel we're surrounded,
By warm, caring love.
Like upside-down rainbows,
Their smiles bring the sun.
And they fill ho-hum moments,
With laughter and fun.
Friends are like angels,
Without any wings.
Blessing our lives,
With the most precious things.

"FOREVER FRIENDS"
Sometimes in life
You find a special friend
Someone who changes your life
Just by being a part of it
Someone who makes you laugh
Until you can't stop
Someone who makes you believe
That there really is good in the world
Someone who convinces you
That there really is an unlocked door
Just waiting for you to open it
This is a forever friendship
When you're down
And the world seems dark and empty
Your forever friend lifts you in spirit
And makes that dark and empty world
Suddenly seem bright and full
Your forever friend gets you through
The hard times, the sad times,
And the confused times
If you turn and walk away
Your forever friend follows
If you lose your way
Your forever friend guides you
And cheers you on
Your forever friend holds your hand
And tells you that things
Will be okay
And if you find such a friend
You feel happy and complete
You have a forever friend for life
And forever has NO end
´*•.¸(*•.¸♥ ¸.•*´)¸.•*´ ´*•.¸(*•.¸♥ ¸.•*´)¸.•*´
''GONE BUT NOT FORGOT''
Though your smile is gone forever,
Your hands we cannot touch
Still we have so many memories
Of the ones we loved so much
Your memory is our keepsake
With which we'll never part
God has you in his keeping
While we have you in our hearts
´*•.¸(*•.¸♥ ¸.•*´)¸.•*´ ´*•.¸(*•.¸♥ ¸.•*´)¸.•*´
If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again.

The followings are two newspaper reports following Katies death.
Friday, June 12, 1998 Published at 14:14 GMT 15:14 UK
'Anaesthetist guilty of misconduct'
Katie suffered heart attack minutes after being anaesthetised
An anaesthetist has been found guilty of serious professional misconduct after a 10-year-old girl
died at a dentist's surgery.
Dr Tapas Kumar Basu was told by the General Medical Council that he failed to follow basic
procedures in a routine operation on Katie Dougal in January 1996.
Katie, of Breaston, in Derbyshire, suffered a heart attack only minutes after being anaesthetised at
a dental surgery in Long Eaton, Derbyshire.
'Faulty equipment'
She went to the dentist after breaking two front teeth in a playground accident the day before.
An inquest found that Dr Basu had gone ahead with the operation despite the fact that vital
equipment monitoring carbon dioxide levels was not working properly.
South Derbyshire Health Authority said the operation should not have gone ahead and called for
changes in the use of anaesthesia.
'Professional misconduct'
The GMC in London found that Dr Basu failed to react "adequately" to the emergency, did not use the
correct monitors during the operation, and had not kept up to date with the latest developments in
his field.
The chairman of the GMC's Professional Conduct Committee, Sir Herbert Duthie, said: "The committee
have judged you guilty of serious professional misconduct in relation to the facts and have decided
that for a period of three years your registration should be conditional on compliance with the
following requirement.
"You should restrict your general anaesthetic practice to adults in a hospital setting."

''Girls death prompts call for dental surgery curbs''
By David Graves
THE death of a girl during an operation to repair her broken teeth prompted calls yesterday for all
dental surgery requiring a general anaesthetic to be restricted to hospitals.
Sir Geoffrey De Deney, chief executive of the Royal College of Anaesthetists, said that proper
control could be maintained only in hospitals. He was speaking after an inquest jury in Derby
decided that the death of ten-year-old Katie Dougal was an accident.
Katie, who had broken two front teeth in a fall at school, suffered heart failure during treatment
at the Alexander Gordon clinic in Long Eaton, Derbyshire, on Jan 18.
The anaesthetist who took part in the surgery admitted during the inquest that a monitor used to
measure levels of carbon dioxide and oxygen was not working properly. Dr Tatas Basoo, an
anaesthetist for 28 years, also said he was unaware of the manufacturer's guidelines which stated
that the device, a capnograph, "must be used" during general anaesthesia.
Dr Basoo, who is not a member of the royal college, was assisting Dr Mark Duckmanton, a dental
surgeon, during the operation. He told the inquest that the monitor's carbon dioxide readings were
faulty, but its oxygen levels were working properly.
He had continued using the monitor and relied on "experience" to regulate carbon dioxide levels in
the schoolgirl's lungs and had already performed "12 or 13 other operations without a capnograph
that day", he said.
'Katie's death was down to ignorance. Katie should have walked out of that clinic, but she didn't'
Dr Michael Pepperman, clinical director of anaesthetics at Leicester Royal Infirmary, told the
inquest that a capnograph should have been used during the operation on Katie, of Breaston,
Derbyshire. He said: "The most logical scenario is that there was a build-up of carbon dioxide in
Katie's lungs and that, combined with the anaesthetic, slowed her heart-rate down. The effect of the
excess carbon dioxide in her body was like putting diesel into a petrol car. From there it was
almost a downhill spiral, because the more her pulse slowed the less oxygen her body could produce
and the less carbon dioxide could be flushed out."
Asked by Peter Ashworth, the Derby coroner, about the use of a capnograph, Dr Pepperman replied: "If
Dr Basoo had used such a machine he would have had an earlier indication of the carbon dioxide
build-up. "The capnograph is a minimum requirement in all anaesthetic environments and, though a
doctor cannot be forced to use one, I believe guidelines should be followed at all times. Like in
any line of work which requires expertise, anaesthetists are expected to keep up with developments
in their field."
Dr Clive Bouch, a consultant pathologist, said he had been unable to find any medical condition
which might have contributed to Katie's death. "The absence of any abnormality or disease or
abnormal drugs or quantities of drugs leads me to believe that death resulted from the anaesthetic
procedure," he said.
Katie's parents intend to sue Dr Basoo and the clinic. After the hearing, her father said: "Katie's
death was down to ignorance. Katie should have walked out of that clinic, but she didn't. Maybe 20
or 40 years ago children did die like this but it should not have happened in this day and age."

❁ The Tapestry of Life ❁
(Author Unknown)
"Tis said that old Time is a shuttle,
Swift weaving the web of our days;
In and out fly fast speeding moments
Thro' the warp and the wool of earth's maze.
***************************************
At times all the colors seem sombre,
Again there are dashes of bright;
Anon all life's threads knot and tangle,
And only defects meet our sight,
***************************************
Full often we stand and in wonder
We gaze at the unveiling loom,
Which hides the design of the fabric
Until we have reached the dark tomb.
***************************************
Only this do we know that the groundwork,
Thro' which the bright colors are twined,
Is woven of charity's fibers,
Which serve the threads closely to bind.
***************************************
And when the last thread has been broken,
And the loom is forever at rest,
We shall see that our life's great Designer,
Knew what for His children was best.

High Flight.
Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings.
Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun split clouds - and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of; wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hovering there
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air;
Up, up the long delirious burning blue
I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace,
Where never lark nor even eagle flew;
And while, with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high, un-trespassed sanctity of space
Put out my hand and touched the face of God.

♥ I'd Rather See You Smiling ♥
( Alan Pemberton)
You must not think that I have gone
Please don't grieve or pine
I'd rather see you smiling
Laughing - working - looking fine
Death is an exciting key
Which opens many doors
It leads us into other worlds
Quite similar to yours
Life is not an accident
Death is not the end
God designed a mystery
Life and death do blend
So do not think that I have gone
Please don't brood or pine
I'd rather see you smiling
Laughing - working - looking fine

♥ I Promise ♥
(Author Unknown)
I promise I won't cry forever
But I need to just today.
I promise I will remember
How to live and how to play.
I promise that I'll dry my tears
When the heartache goes away.
I promise that it won't take years
But I need another day.
I promise that I'll live my life
As you would want me to.
I promise when I'm facing strife
I'll face it straight and true.
I promise I will endeavour
To do the best I can each day.
I promise I won't cry forever
But I need to just today.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
The years will fall like autumn leaves upon her memory.
The touch of Time will ease the heartache, gently, tenderly...
It cannot always be like this; the agony will cease.
And I, resigned, shall find at last - my healing and my peace.
There comes a time when grief must end and sorrow pass away.
Never will she be forgotten - but there'll come a day -
when I shall remember her without a stab of pain -
happy in the secret knowledge that we'll meet again.
(Patience Strong)

♥═══♥ Life is a Journey ♥═══♥
Birth is a beginning
and death a destination
And life is a journey:
From childhood to maturity
and youth to age;
From innocence to awareness
and ignorance to knowing;
From foolishness to desecration
and then perhaps to wisdom.
From weakness to strength or
from strength to weakness
and often back again;
From health to sickness
and we pray to health again.
From offence to forgiveness
from loneliness to love
from joy to gratitude
from pain to compassion
from grief to understanding
from fear to faith.
From defeat to defeat to defeat
until looking backwards or ahead
We see that victory lies not
at some high point along the way
but in having made the journey
step by step
a sacred pilgrimage.
Birth is a beginning
and death a destination
And life is a journey;
A sacred journey to life everlasting.

Rest your weary head and drift off into dreams,
Frolic in the sunshine and bathe in God's moonbeams.
Use the stars as stepping-stones to take you to your peace,
The pain of life forgotten now you have found release.
Without rain a flower folds, the petals drop and die,
There was no way to save you, you couldn't even cry.
So we cry all the tears instead as we must let you go
To Heaven, and God's garden to blossom and to grow.
The little seed is planted, you'll be watered every day,
The angels will tend all your needs as in their arms you lay.
Your life will be amazing now and full of wondrous things,
Rest in peace, our dear, sweet Kate, go fly on angels wings.

Along the paths of life
Ive followed all my dreams
But now that you are gone
I am bursting at the seams
I cant go on without you
Live a life without you here
All i have is memories now
As i struggle through the year
Copyright Sharon Wheeler
Just a thought of sweet remembrance,
Just a memory fond and true,
Just a token of affection
And a heartache still for you.
More each day we miss you,
Though our thoughts are not revealed,
Little do they know the sorrow
That is within our hearts concealed.
I stood by your bed last night;
I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying you found it hard to sleep.
I spoke to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
'It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here.'
I was close to you at breakfast,
I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached to me.
I was with you at the shops today; your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.
I was with you at my grave today; you tend it with such care.
I want to re-assure you, that I'm not lying there.
I flew with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently landed on you; I smiled and said, 'it's me.'
You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know, that I was there.
It's possible for me, to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, 'I never went away.'
You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.
The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning and say 'good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning.'
And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll fly across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to show you,
there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out...
then come home to be with me.
