Ava the flying girl

Do you see how much I need you right now? - When you're gone by Avril Lavigne (2007)

A little butterfly flower pot decoration at her grave.
Yesterday, 10th May 2015, 9 years ago, my mum Geraldine Scully (née Flanagan) gave birth to my premature sister Ava Scully. 8 days later Ava past away in her and my birthplace, the Coombe hospital, Dublin, Ireland. I was told about Ava on the day of the funeral. She was so mysterious to me since I never saw her alive.
If she was alive today, we would've had a birthday party for her, with the neighnours in the house and this post would've never existed.

It was on either 19th May-20th May 2006 when the Scullys drove to Dublin on a mild cloudy day. i was confused, Was mum sick again? We parked in the hospital and went into a stone house where I saw her in a white baby coffin. The coffin was embroiled on the walls and lid by flowers and it was shoe box shaped. There was relaxing fountain in the room as well that I remember dipping my fingers in. I never knew anything about death and funerals so this was new to me. When we brought her home, I place a small baby doll in a pink baby bodysuit in with her for her to play with in Heaven. The funeral was attended by the whole Scully and Flanagan family, including my cousin Celine who was going to be Ava's godmother.When she was buried, I place a beautiful big daffodil on her grave. We miss Ava to this day and recently I made a Find a Grave memorial for her.

Ava is my Rocky the flying squirrel.

Sub Books

Image
So last night on April Fools Day, I went serious with this: Today, Word Autism Awareness Day I decided after each book that there will be a sub-book that would have unabridged version of an event from the book. Teenage Cyborg's sub book will be about Green Cyborg's death, funeral and legacy. It will have questions for the name of the chapters e.g: Why didn't Green Wings Man, his only nephew, didn't attend the funeral? and If  Green Cyborg was human, would've it been natural causes?  Burren Swings' sub book will be about Chief Lumberbell's brother with the same formula. Ordinary Road's sub book will be about The writer of the journals of Andy49, Jean50 and Bruno55. Emerald Eyes will be about How Green Wings Man's birth changed Kelsey's depressed life. Leap Year Double will be about  The history of the Generation Millennium gems. Mystery Hex will be about Kelsey's death and legacy. Now, on that same, I realised that I was not the on

Dead on Back to the Future day - Marty Ingles

Image
On Back to the Future Day, 60s legend, Marty Ingles passed away. Oh gosh, he died of a stroke and was the wife of Shirley Jones. Why did he die on Back to the Future Day? It's just like when Farrah Fawcett died on the same day as Michael Jackson or when Steve Irwin died on Edhuard Khil's birthday. If you watched the Hanna-Barbera Pac-Man series, you would know which character Marty played. Now, I never knew Marty in media before he died but I remember the intro to the series. He was survived by his widow Shirley Jones.

Green Wings Man - Teenage Cyborg - Chapter One - pages 1-2

With his uncle’s health deteriorating, Edd Burren will have to become the so called nephew of Green Cyborg. He had already picked a code name, Green Wings Man. “Lewis forgot one thing for sure” Edd said, looking at the illustration of Queen Alice “He forgot to say about Alice’s new attire, I have read this a baker’s dozen times and it has just come to me now” he added, brushing a fallen cobweb from his brown tuft of hair that seemingly was inherited from his uncle. It bounced up and down as he read the first line of the 9 th chapter, Queen Alice “It doesn’t makes sense, if Tatiana wrote this, she would explain it in the most ridiculous way possible” Edd proclaimed. Tatiana was Edd’s enemy, a brown-haired girl who was born the day before him and the year after him on 24 th November 1999 while he was born on 25 th November 1998. “Uncle always wants to be in the Irish Cyborg Hall of Fame before he passes away despite Dr Reynolds telling him that he won’t pass way anytime soon“ Edd
