This Site has been created as a dedication to, and in memory of Tamara Lee Broadmore. Tammy was born
at 9.25am on the 25th of September 1976. She died, aged 28, at home with family and friends at
11.25pm on
the 25th of January 2005.
Tammy was born with a condition called CHARGE Syndrome.
Please visit this site www.austcharge.com.au
The first few minutes of her life we were given very little hope and we knew she would need to be a
fighter if she was to survive.
Tam had 28 operations one for every year of her life but where ever she went she would leave a
footprint in the heart of everyone she met or touched and she never complained but got on and did
what she needed to do to enjoy life.
The Doctors were always trying to help Tam, but were convinced she had a limited lifespan, after
awhile they stopped telling me how long they thought she would survive and concentrated on her
remarkable progress and resilience.
When she became profoundly deaf at the age of 10 we were devastated but not Tam she just took it in
her stride, she had things to do.
At 20 what a beautiful debutant she made, in her beautiful white dress, and with her partner John.
As the years went by Tammy became more and more aware of her capabilities instead of her
disabilities and every day was greeted with a smile and a new challenge.
She absolutely loved her bingo and l might add had her fair share of wins, especially on the
raffles.
In September 2004 Tammy took sick again and this sickness just wouldn't let go of her, back and
forth to the hospital but we knew they could not do much for her.
Tammys last visit in Jan 2005 she got Pleurisy and she had suffered heart failure, she cried every
day with pain and finally she was sent home as there was nothing they could do for her. I had the
gruesome job of giving my beautiful daughter injections for her pain and we just waited till the
end.
In her last days she would say to me, "Mumma l love you so much and you don't hurt when you give me
a needle" then she would thank me. I was the one who needed to thank her, for giving me the courage
to face life without her but knowing in my heart she will always walk beside me.
Any one who knew Tammy knew of her infectious smile and her ability to make people feel better.
I will remember her for the precious gift she gave me, the gift of loving, caring and of tolerance
and also to think of others but also to always remember when all else failed just give a smile.
Tam was my best friend and her love of life and her ability to love was shown in that wicked smile
everyday.
I believe anyone who met Tammy has had her footprint stamped on their heart and no matter what we do
through our lives she will always be there.
Tammy asked for so little in her life and loved so much, she just needed her family and friends, her
beloved Glenallen School where she hoped one day she would do work experience. She loved her rugby
league, she dreamed of seeing Melbourne Storm win another Grand Final and she was stoked when in the
final weeks of her life she received a telephone call from her beloved Matt Orford no: 7 half back
for Melbourne Storm and all she could say was, "wow mumma he rang me."
Tammy has a older sister named Sue and a younger brother Nathan, she also idolised her 2 nephews
Anthony and Riley.
Please don't be sad for Tam because her job on this earth is done and now she will play in Gods
garden with no pain or affliction but with love and that wicked wicked smile.

Thank you
Your 33rd Birthday
Well my darling sister, what do I say? Another has gone by and you would have been another year older. Your youngest nephew has just turned 1 and life seems to be moving along nicely for most of the family...I just cant stop wondering how you are getting on and if nannas there with you? I just wish I could hold you and have you give me one of your amazing bear hugs just one more time. Tammy, sweet sister, I miss you terribly and love you dearly... Hopefully it wont be too much longer and we will be together again.... I love you
"Give Me Peace"
Lord, in this hour I need you, more than words could ever tell.
I feel as if I'm stranded on shores between heaven and hell...
I know you haven't left me, yet my heart feels void of hope.
I feel as if I'm hanging on an old and thread worn rope...
I feel as if my hearts been torn from the breast from which it came.
And sunshine will no longer fill my life, only clouds of darkness and rain...
I know this will pass,
and you will be there to give me comfort and strength and hope.
But until then I can't help the feeling that I'm down to that last thread of rope...
If it breaks, you'll be there to catch me, and raise me back to my feet...
But for now my world is in turmoil, and the essence of life is not sweet...
Give me power to overcome my oppression, and let sunshine back on my face.
Let your spirit overwhelm my cold dark heart,
and let me bask in your warmth giving grace...
Give rest to my tempest of yearning, and faith to my sore lacking soul.
Let me again laugh with my family. Rescue me from this pit in Sheol.
With praise I do worship your blessings, with humility, I ask my release.
From this den of despair I ask mercy...show favour on me...give me peace.
love theresa xxx

End of another year
Hello my darling girl, I guess you already know what I am going to tell you. Your little brother is going to be a Daddy!
Yes Tam his is really grown up now and Kylie and him are really happy about it. I believe you did this to help me get by without you. Tammy I miss you so very, very much still my heart aches so much I can remember the happiness and joy you felt when Anthony and Riley were born and now to have your little brother a daddy i wish with all my heart you could be here to see this wonderful day. I know everyone says you are here in spirit and I know that, truly I do but it is not the same as having you here in reality, here where i can cuddle and love you the way it should be. It is New Years Eve and all that means is it is another year gone without my beautiful daughter beside me. I know Tam i am suppose to understand and accept what I cant change but I will never accept your passing, I love you too much to accept something that I can never understand. Sweetheart watch over your brother and sister and their families for me, I am not very good at it now that you have gone from me.
I love you Tammy with everything in me and i miss you so very much, give Nana a hug for me and I will see you in my dreams
always and forever
your broken hearted Mumma

A Very Special Person
Darling Tammy
You will never know how much your Aunty Marg and I wanted to see you and your family in those last years. Paul and I went and sat at Brandon Park shopping Centre many times hoping that we would see someone from your family because that was the area that we knew the family had last lived. Our family was apart for so long, something that should never have happened. But Tammy you are a TRUE ANGEL because you where the one that has us all back together again. It may not have happened while you where still with us but it was because of you that it has happened. I prayed for this and God always answers our prays, this time he was wating for A SPECIAL ANGEL for his helper
Lots of love and Prayers always Aunty Suexxxxx
I saw this the other day and put it in for another mum who lost her little boy Ruben to SIDS
This is something I could hear Tammy saying
My Mumma is a survivor,
Or so I've heard it said.
But I can hear her crying at night,
When all others are in bed.
I watch her lay awake at night,
And go to hold her hand.
She doesn't know I'm with her,
To help her understand.
But like the sands on the beach,
That never wash away...
I watch over my surviving mumma,
Who thinks of me each day.
She wears a smile for others...
A smile of disguise!
But through Heaven's door I see,
Tears flowing from her eyes.
My mumma tries to cope with death,
To keep my memory alive.
But anyone who knows her knows,
It is her way to survive.
As I watch over my surviving mumma,
Through Heaven's open door...
I try to tell her that angels,
Protect me forevermore.
I know that doesn't help her...
Or ease the burden she bears.
So if you get a chance, go visit her...
And show her that you care.
For no matter what she says...
No matter what she feels,
My surviving mumma has a broken heart,
That time won't ever heal.
Gone to soon
It seems as though when Tammy was born it was written 'These are the rules of life'. But Tammy wrote her own set of rules on life. And that was the way it seems she lived her short life. [by her rules defying all the hurdles]We all seem to have hurdles in our lives that we think that we cant get over.Than you read the tribute to Tammy and it brings you back to reality. [R.I.P.]
Our christmas tree is now
6.85m tall!
