★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 Lord needed a flower
and that flower was you
so he picked you up from down here
and up and up you flew
He planted you in his garden
he said 'You'll stay here now with me'
and there you'll stay away from harm
the prettiest flower you'll always be
.☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆ * .☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆
I've listened to the footprints poem
a million times or more
of how when only one set shows
upon the sandy shore
it's the lord carrying us
and taking on our load
and his are the only set
of footprints that showed
But what if when we look
there are no footprints to be found?
all we see is plain and simple
sand upon the ground
no imprints showing that our lord
is carrying us through life
helping us when we feel
we can not handle all this strife
Where is my lord now that i've fallen
and can't seem to get back up?
so tired and lonely
trying to deal with what seems
an overflowing cup
where are those footprints
in the sand
to tell me he's right there?
helping me with problems
and showing that he really does care
Does he have favourites, OH NO
please tell me that's not so
but why does life seem easier
for some people that I know?
and sometimes I just scream out loud
although it seems in vain
but often gets harder each day
to deal with all this pain
And then it dawned on me
as I realize how simple could it be
I wonder why I was so blind
that I truly did not see
it must have been a lightening bolt
that one day gave me light
because out of the clear blue sky
I finally regained my sight
I saw a fluffy white cloud
shaped like an angel dear
that helped me to understand
and see things oh so clear
that's when I saw no footprints
and so often wondered why
my lord carried me on angel wings
when he decided to fly.

ANGEL WINGS YOU WEAR...♥ღ♥
The day you left broke our hearts
and the tears fell like rain,
but knowing that you now have wings
helps to ease the pain.
♥ღ♥
We know now when the snow falls
it is Angel dust from you
and when we see a shooting star
our Angel just passed through.
♥ღ♥
The rain drops do not make us sad
for they are not tears,
but sprinkles of love falling down,
our Angel again is near.
♥ღ♥
The winter cold has even changed,
Jack Frost no longer exists,
it's now a visit from our Angel
and he's left a special gift.
♥ღ♥
You also visit in the night,
your wings flutter with grace,
we know now when we awaken
that an Angel has kissed our face.
♥ღ♥
When the days are warm and bright
and the sun shines from above,
we feel the warmth wrap around us,
you've given an Angel hug.
♥ღ♥
You are with us at all times,
every day and night,
you try to end the pain we have
and the tears that we still cry.
♥ღ♥
Though Heaven is your home now
and Angel wings you wear,
you stay close to those you love,
until they join you there.
♥ღ♥

I still cry
A beautiful song by Ilse De Lange...
I`m making flowers out of paper
While darkness takes the afternoon
I know that they won`t last forever
But real ones fade away too soon.
I still cry sometimes when I remember you
I still cry sometimes when I hear your name
I said goodbye and I know you`re alright now
But when the leaves start falling down I still cry.
It`s just that I recall September
It`s just that I still hear your song
It`s just I can`t seem to remember
Forever more those days are gone.
I still cry sometimes when I remember you
I still cry sometimes when I hear your name
I said goodbye and I know you`re alright now
But when the leaves start falling down I still cry.
I still cry sometimes when I remember you
I still cry sometimes when I hear your name
I said goodbye and I know you`re alright now
But when the leaves start falling down I still cry
But when the leaves start falling down I still cry.
~All my love to you and your angel~ xxx
