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
I send your family my condolences during your time of grief
May God bless your souls,
You may be wondering why did she have to go
But only God and Heaven knows
When the day comes you'll see her at the crossroads
But until that day
Just know God works in mysterious ways.
❤

Hello my darling, so hard to believe it has been 6 years today I miss you so much it just feels like yesterday.
Sometimes I lie awake at night thinking about you and wondering why it had to be this way but all I can think of is God needed you more than we did. I went to your grave today and as I was leaving I felt a terrible pain and just didnt want to leave you on your own. So silly I know!
We went to Kylie's and spend the afternoon with Kylie, Sue, Riley, Bryce and Sharlette and then Nath came before we had to go. It was a good afternoon the only thing missing Tam was you.
I was looking through this site and fould these words and I want to share them with you sweetheart.
"Sometimes when I say "I'm ok" I want someone to look me in the eyes, hug me tight and say " know you are not! Sleep peacefully my angel I love you always and forever your Mumma xoxoxoxoxo
Happy Birthday In Heaven - by Winnie Lovett
"Happy Birthday Tammy"
It's sure to be the best one yet,
Though you left us here behind.
Did you think that we'd forget?
Your cake this year, will surely be,
A beauty to behold.
With the icing made of Silver,
And the candles made of Gold.
Yes, your birthday in Heaven,
Will be such a grand affair.
And I know you'll look so lovely,
With a halo in your hair.
The Angels will come from everywhere,
To sing your birthday song.
And I know they'll be so happy,
That you've joined, God's Happy Throng.
No I can't send a card this year,
Or give a gift so fine.
So I'll just send a special prayer,
To that wonderful Daughter of yours.

Happy Birthday Tam
Happy 34th Birthday my darling.I find it so hard to believe it is nearly 6years since you left me, I miss you so very much sweetheart but I continue to be strong like you asked.
I would guess now your dearest friend Elsie has joined you in God's garden and you are both having wonderful times together.
Bryce stayed last night which was great he is so much like Nathan was at that age it is uncanny.
Everyone here is good and they are all happy.
I miss your smiles and hugs, I miss you telling me you love me, I always feel like part of me is missing.
My darling girl watch over us all especially your brother and sister please keep them safe for me.
I love you always and forever
Your broken hearted Mumma xoxoxo

She is apparently beautiful, i have not seen her yet but Susie has seen her and nursed her. Now Nathan's family is complete, him Kylie, Bryce and Sharlette.
You would be so proud of your bro i can see you smiling at them from above.
Watch over them all Tam please for me, keep them free from harm.

Hi my sweet, Well God called Uncle Jim to go and be with you and Nana a sad day for us all. But now you can have those lost years with him as we wanted, remember sweetheart it was you who brought this family back together and for that i am eternally grateful.
I in turn had my chance to talk to him and everything was good.
Hug both him and Nana for me often please Tammy.
Our new baby arrives in about 4 weeks so hard to believe your little bro has a family of his own now, you would be so proud of him and the man he has become,
Susie is doing really well making a business for her and the boyz. Anthony has had a terrible time with his toe he got golden strahp after the operation but s well on the improve now.
Mick unfortunately has Diabetes and is on tablets but you would be proud of him he is doing the right thing.
Dave is good starts a new job in 4 weeks.
Raewyn came out from NZ and met Nathan for the first time and it was great.
Well my beautiful girl that i all the news till later please watch over us all and watch over Carla and her family.
Love always and forever
Your loving Mumma

Hi my darling girl i just went and paid a visit to Nana's site because i can never seem to get there if i come to you first.
Not alot of new baby, Nathan and Kylie have not much longer before the new baby arrives about 16 weeks i think. Your brother has changed Tam I hardly see him now and he never rings it hurts so much i miss him dearly but he is so busy working and he is always too tired i guess these are the things i have to accept when they have live of their own.
Susie is well and very good to me she comes and helps clean the house because i just cant manage it sometimes. AJ and Riley are good but growing so fast they are both playing footy now.
Bryce is just a little dream when i do get to see him he is doing new things and apparently today he called his mother "Kylie" instead of mum.
He is the sweetest little boy but you know that already.
Mick is well he turns 62 this month getting to be an old bugger lol.
Dave is good, still doing his karate. Like me he has good days and bad he misses you terribly Tam but we all know at least you are in no pain now and that has to be the most imporant thing.
As for me sweetie i thought for awhile there i was going to join you and Nana but each day it gets easier. Unfortunately the pain is there all the time and only eases for abit with the medication but i know am i needed here for Nathan and Sue.
Dave is so very good to me he looks after me so well i do love him so very much and you were right Tam he did change!
Well my darling i will sign off now until the next time remember to watch over your Sister and Brother
I love you Tammy always and forever
Your Mumma
