ive only just found out
« on: June 28, 2005, 19:00:41 pm »
i feel like im behind the times,but ive only just found out about Tracys death, and im so upset and shocked. i watched her programs fanatically after i had my son in 2003 and found them so helpful, that i quote her to friends who have new babies.
im so saddened by the loss and can understand how her daughters feel as i lost my mam to cancer in 2000, and of course my wedding and the birth of my son are the times ive missed her most, thinking of what would have been, but as Tracy said herself in one of her letters, you have to pull up your bootlaces and carry on, as i know my mam would have wanted me to and im sure its how Tracy would want her daughters to be, and i do hope that this site is kept going by them, as it'll give them comfort in all the goodwill messages sent by mothers all over the world.
Tracy was a inspirational woman and i hope she is watching and is beaming with pride at all the parents of the world taking on her advice.
my heart goes out to all her family, especially her daughters.xxxx :cry:

I am from Melbourne, Australia and I too have just found out about Tracy's passing.  I am a fan of Tracy's and have been for the last 18 months, watching her shows on Foxtel religiously.  After watching her shows I then purchased her first 2 books (which I call my Bibles) and am always telling my friends about her.  I have a 3yo boy and a 3 month old girl and have been referring to her baby book again since bringing home my little girl.  I am terribly saddened by her passing as she will be a huge loss to many people.  Tracy's baby whispering has touched woman all over the world and brought sound advice and help. My thoughts are with her family during this very sad time.   :cry:

I am new to the site and enjoyed watching Tracy on The baby Whisperer.  I was shocked to hear about Tracy's death, and my thoughts go out to her family.

Through watching Tracy's programme on Discovery Health, I have just ordered a Haberman Feeder.  I saw her use these with some of the mums she worked along side.

I am also new to this site and just found out that Tracy passed away last year.  Her work really changed my life, my relationship with my daughter and my first experiences of motherhood.  What an amazing lady...

I only just found out yesterday when accessing this website for the first time. I have a 5 month old happy baby greatly due to the advice I received in Secrets of the Baby Whisperer....it has been my bible & I was very sad to hear of Tracy's death. I always recommend the book to all expectant mother's and am so grateful for it. It was recommended to me by another wonderful mum thankfully. I look forward to reading her other 2 books to help educate me in the complex art of parenting!
With love to Tracy's family.

I too am new to the site today - i was shocked and saddened to hear of her illness and her passing. I enjoyed watching her on the discovery channel.
I had my first baby in august 05, and am starting to use her ideas from her books. I hope i can do her justice.

I, too, just found out about Tracy's illness and death.  I actually feel a part of my family has passed on.  Hers is the only baby book I've read cover to cover.  So many times I  told myself how lucky I could be if I could get "Tracy" to help me with my first baby.  What a wonderful gift she has been to this world.

I just found out about Tracy by scanning the site and happening upon "in remembrance of tracy"!!!  I had no idea!  What a shock!  I will be ever-thankful that she was able to write what books she did, as they and this site have helped me tremendously!  What a loss for the parenting community, not to mention her loving family!  They must be so proud of her effects on this world, eternal and everlasting.  I will help to carry on her legacy by giving Tracy the credit for helping me enjoy "easy" parenting w/ an "easy" baby.

WE LOVE YOU, TRACY!  Your family are in our hearts and prayers.

Although Tracy has passed, as I am shocked to find out at such a late time after her passing, I can feel her inspiration and encouragement each time I look to her book and this website (new to me). Though I'd never had the privilege of meeting her, I heard her voice and felt her compassion for wanting women all over the world to learn to whisper to their babies. Her words helped me get through some very trying times when starting out as a new mom, and now with my second child I've found myself going over again and again what she taught me through her life's work. I am blessed to have been touched by her loving hand through the power of her never ending encouragement found in her books. Thank You Tracy, your life's work has been done, you've helped us ... moms all over the world, .. become the best mom's we can be through your guidance and reassurance. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to your family and your children. Your mom was such a wonderful person, thank you for sharing her with all of us.
God Bless,

I only recently found out to and had been watching her programs for help and hints. It actually came as a shock and so sad as to why take such an angel? I lost my dad when i was 18, he was 44 years old and i strongly believe he will always listen from heaven, just like Tracy will know how much i (and every mother) would like to thank her for being such a wonderful lady as to give her time to help us help our little angels.You made our lives easier and happier with your knowledge and understanding.
Thankyou Tracey

i too had ready tracys book before i found out that she had passed and the only words i have to describe how i felt was shocked and devastated. i felt as if i had lost a friend. someone who had given me so much good advise and helped myself and my son so much to keep us both happy and mentally healthy. it is such a shame that someone with such a great talent be taken so early in life but i am glad that her legacy lives on in this site. i only discovered it recently but i now feel like im not alone. i can share my feelings and worries and hopefully give a little support and comfort to others who are going through the same thing.

tracy truly was the baby whisperer and is a great loss to us all.

Thank you Tracy
