In May of 2006, four year old Payton Makenna Wright was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer
called Medulloepithelioma. Throughout the year she underwent heavy doses of chemotherapy and
radiation. She became paralyzed in August 2006 due to the tumor compressing her spine. Payton had to
undergo several surgeries for shunt placement in her skull to release the pressure build up. It was
a long and difficult road for Payton and her family, but nothing was as difficult as when Payton
passed away on May 29, 2007. She had just celebrated her 5th birthday. Payton's parents promised her
that they would continue to fight this disease and help other children with cancer.

May 29,2008 made one year since Payton has passed away. She will not be forgotten, for she has
touched many peoples lives. Payton not only affected the community around her, myself being one of
them, but she reached people across states. Her parents made a website for her: Paytonwright.org and
many people fell in love with Payton and her story. Through all of her surgries, chemo and pain
Payton always had a smile on her face. As Payton had stated to her father at the beginning of her
illness "It's gonna be a good day". Those are words to truly live by.

I went around my school and work raising money for Payton's fund. I also attented both of her walks
in hopes to raise money. I walked in her 2nd annual fun walk. She was an amzing little girl who
changed my life drastically. Here is a link to the youtube video I made for her:

Your Wondering If I'll Celebrate
My Birthday (Way Up Here)
I Know Your Missing Me Today
I Feel Your Essence Near.

God Planned A Special Day For Me
He Told Me With A Wink
he Ordered Me A Special Cake
(It's Angel Food I Think)

Im Getting Lots Of Hugs From God
He's Really Good At That
And Every Time That I Walk By
He Gives My Head A Pat

Balloons Will Fill The Streets For Me
They Float Up Through The Clouds
And We Have Lots Of Clowns Up Here
That Make Us Laugh Out Loud

There's A Birthday Carousel
Jeweld Horses Ride The Wind
With Music Playing. Ho So Sweet....
The Magic Never Ends

You are mammy`s little princess
But you’re in heaven now
She dream`s that she could hold you
And wish`s she knew how

You will always be your mammy`s princess
She’ll always keep you in her heart
Until some day she see`s you
Then you`s won’t be apart

So be happy little princess
In Gods heaven up above
And everyday till you meet again
She will send you all her love

Andrea Paxton December 5, 2008

So sorry for the loss of your brave beautiful daughter I know that no words can take away the pain that you are left with and only time will help you adapt to life without Payton, but the aching and yearning will always be with you. Your memories though make you cry now will in time make you smile, Please take comfort and strength from the love that you have for Payton and each other, and the fact that Payton has only left your view she has not left you Payton will be with you always helping you on this terrible roller coaster ride and long dark road ahead. You will be together again one day Stay strong and make Payton proud, just like she did you when she was here. Its not fare that we loose our children and people who do not suffer this loss will never understand our pain nor do they want to.
Much love and big hugs XXX

Have A Good Weekend Everyone

If I Knew

If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.

If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play them back day after day.

If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute
to stop and say "I love you,"
instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.

If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance
to make everything just right.

There will always be another day
to say "I love you,"
And certainly there's another chance to say
our "Anything I can do?"

But just in case I might be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
you get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
you'll surely regret the day,

That you didn't take that extra time
for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone,
what turned out to be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today,
and whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them
and that you'll always hold them dear

Take time to say "I'm sorry,"
"Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay."
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.

A golden heart stopped beating,
