Regina Marie Orsbon was born on February 20, 1981.  I remember the first time her eyes met mine there in the delivery room, the doctor placed her on my chest and she looked into my eyes and my heart melted.  This beautiful little baby girl was mine and I was a proud new mother, she was 6lbs 14oz and 18 inch's long..so small she was.  She was my first born of 3 daughter's...her sister's are Crystal and Amber.      

On June 4, 1997 Regina and Crystal left for school, I kissed my daughter's good bye and told them I loved them as I always did.  Not knowing that one of my babies would not be coming back home again. Within 45 minutes from the time they left the phone rang, and I will never forget the words that I heard from the caller on the other end of the phone.  I was told that Regina had past out during gym class and that she had had a seizure..."a seizure what was this person talking about, Regina never had seizures before."  They said she is having another seizure right now. I said I am on my way.  It only took about 4 minutes to get to the school, I went straight to the gym and there laying on the floor was my daughter..my baby girl.  She was not breathing and they were starting CPR.  I  sat down on the floor beside her and held her hand, she was lifeless.  I told her to breathe...breathe Regina I kept saying.  I told her she could not leave me, your my baby and I need you here with me.                      

All through her life when ever she would fall and hurt herself, I was there.  I would hold her, tell her it would be ok, put a band-aid on her little knee,kiss her and put her down to try again.  The hug, the kiss, and the band-aid always seemed to make things better.   I always thought I'd be able to comfort her pain, sooth her hurts and she'd be ok.  On that June morning Regina went into cardiac arrest and passed away and a big part of me died with her.  Not a second goes by that I don't think of her. I spend my waking hours thinking of her and dream of her when I'm asleep.  She will always be a part of me.  The pain is very great, the hurt will always be, there is no band-aid big enough to sooth this hurt in me.                                                                                                                  

Regina was a loving person that always had a smile on her face.  She saw the best in everyone and was always willing to lend a hand when ever she could.  Regina was not only "A BIG SIS" to her sister's she was their best friend.  She will live forever in our hearts.
