In loving memory of Conor Clapton: 'Always WATCH your Children' And make SURE the AREA is SAFE when they are Playing . . .



Dalam Memori Kasih Conor Clapton . . .

IbraniMadyanYong - Saya tahu saya telah membuat video Conor dengan lagu ini sebelum ini, tetapi saya mahu ‘semula membuat’ dan memberi mesej yang sangat istimewa kepadanya:

Tolonglah sentiasa lihat anak-anak anda apabila mereka bermain atau berenang atau apa sahaja yang mereka lakukan. Perhati mereka baik-baik Ia boleh mengelakkan kemalangan yang dahsyat!

Ini Cerita Conor:

Conor dilahirkan pada 21 Ogos 1986 ke dalam kasih sayang ditangan penyanyi Eric Clapton & isterinya Lori Del Santo. Apabila Lori hamil dan sejak Eric adalah Inggeris, dia berasa bayi perlu dilahirkan di England. Apabila hari berada di sana dan Lori telah dibawa ke dalam buruh. Eric bergegas ke hospital untuk melawat Lori dan menjadi dengan dia pada kelahiran.

Seperti mana ianya berlaku, bayi tersekat ianya terbalik, jadi mereka terpaksa melakukan Cesarean saat-saat akhir. Apabila bayi akhirnya datang, mereka memberinya kepada Eric untuk memegangnya. Beliau telah terpesona, dan dia merasa bangga, walaupun dia tidak tahu bagaimana untuk memegang bayi.

Tetapi walau bagaimanapun Eric amat sayangi ini budak kecil, dia tidak tahu di mana untuk bermula dengan dia, kerana Eric adalah seorang bayi cuba untuk menjaga bayi. Jadi dia hanya membiarkan Lori membangunkan dia, yang dia cemerlang. Dia akan datang dan tinggal dengan Paola kakaknya, yang juga bekerja sebagai pembantu beliau, dan kadang-kadang disertai ibu mereka, dan untuk beberapa minggu mereka akan hidup, keluarga yang hidup tenang.

Eric digunakan untuk menonton Conor itu setiap langkah, dan kerana Eric tidak benar-benar tahu banyak tentang bagaimana untuk menjadi seorang ayah, dia bermain dengan beliau dalam cara yang bermain adik-beradik, menendang bola di atas teres untuk jam dan pergi untuk berjalan-jalan di taman . Conor juga mendapat tahu Erics ibu dan nenek, dan Roger juga. Sesiapa yang datang ke dalam hubungan dengan Conor menyangi dia. Dia adalah seorang seperti malaikat kecil, benar-benar-seorang yang amat suci.

Apabila Conor 4 thn, pada malam 19 Mac, Eric pergi ke Galleria, sebuah blok apartmen di East 57th Street, di mana mereka tinggal, untuk mengambil Conor dan membawanya ke sarkas di Long Island. Ia adalah kali pertama Eric sendiri telah mengambil dia keluar, dan dia adalah kedua-dua saraf yang dan teruja.Ia merupakan satu malam yang manarik.

Conor tidak pernah berhenti bercakap dan amat teruja melihat gajah. Ia membuat Eric menyedari buat kali pertama apa yang dimaksudkan untuk mempunyai anak dan bapa. Eric ingat memberitahu Lori, apabila Eric mengambil Conor balik kembali yang selepas itu, apabila Eric mempunyai rumah Conor pada lawatan, Eric sendiri mahu menjaganya.

Tetapi pada keesokan harinya (20 Mac, 1991) Conor yang berusia 4 thn, mati pada kesan selepas jatuh dari tingkap 53 tingkat di New York City pangsapuri rakan ibunya itu, mendarat di atas bumbung sebuah bangunan 4 tingkat bersebelahan. Bilik duduk utama mempunyai tingkap sepanjang satu sisi yang pergi dari lantai ke siling, dan ianya boleh condong terbuka untuk pembersihan.

Pada pagi ini, janitor pembersihan tingkap dan telah meninggalkannya terbuka buat sementara. Waktu itulah Conor telah berlumba-lumba tentang bermain permainan di apartmen menyembunyikan-sorok dengan pengasuh, dan manakala Lori telah terganggu oleh janitor itu memberi amaran tentang bahaya, Conor hanya berlari ke dalam bilik dan terus ke luar tingkap. Beliau kemudian jatuh 49 tingkat sebelum mendarat di atas bumbung sebuah bangunan empat tingkat bersebelahan.

Hari itu Eric naik awal kerana dia terpaksa mengambil Lori dan Conor dan membawa mereka ke Zoo Park Central. Pada kira-kira 11:00 telefon berdering, dan ia adalah Lori. Dia histeria, menjerit bahawa Conor telah mati. Eric berkata kepada dirinya sendiri, ini adalah tidak masuk akal. Bagaimana dia boleh mati?

Dan dia bertanya soalan silliest: “Adakah anda pasti?” Dan kemudian dia memberitahu bahawa dia jatuh daripada tingkap. Beliau sendiri di sebelahnya. Menjerit. Eric berkata, “Saya akan berada di situ.”

Lori tidak terkiranya untuk pergi ke bilik mayat, jadi Eric dirinya sendiri terpaksa mengenal pasti. Apa sahaja kerosakan fizikal dia telah mengalami pada musim gugur, dengan masa yang Eric melihat dia, mereka telah dipulihkan tubuhnya kepada beberapa normal.

Eric ingat melihat muka cantik dalam berehat dan berfikir, ini bukan anak saya. Ia kelihatan sedikit seperti dia, tetapi dia hilang. Beliau pergi berjumpa dia lagi di rumah pengebumian, untuk mengucapkan selamat tinggal dan memohon maaf kerana sebagai bapa yang lebih baik.
Selepas pengebumian, apabila keluarga Lori semuanya balik ke rumah dan Hurtwood adalah tenang dan ia hanya Eric bersendirian dengan pandangan beliau, Beliau mendapati surat daripada Conor bahawa dia telah menulis surat kepada Eric dari Milan, memberitahu Eric betapa dia kerinduan dgn beliau dan sedang mencarinya untuk melihat dia di New York. Beliau pernah menulis, “I love you.” Menyayat hati walaupun ia adalah dilihat Eric sebagai satu perkara yang positif

In loving memory of Conor Clapton

I know I've made a video of Conor with this song before, but I wanted to 're-make' it and give a very special message to it:

PLEASE . . . always watch your children when they are playing or swimming or whatever they are doing. Watch them. It could prevent a terrible accident!

Conor's story:

Conor was born on August 21, 1986 into the loving arms of singer Eric Clapton & his wife Lori Del Santo. When Lori got pregnant and since Eric was English, she felt the baby should be born in England. When the day was there and Lori was brought into labor. Eric rushed to the hospital to visit Lori and being with her at the birth.

As it happened, the baby got stuck upside down, so they had to perform a last-minute Cesarean. When the baby finally came, they gave him to Eric to hold. He was spellbound, and he felt so proud, even though he had no idea how to hold a baby.

But however deeply Eric loved this little boy, he had no idea where to begin with him, because Eric was a baby trying to look after a baby. So he just let Lori raise him, which she did brilliantly. She would come and stay with her sister Paola, who also worked for her as her assistant, and occasionally their mother accompanied them, and for a few weeks they would live a very peaceful, family kind of life.

Eric used to watch Conor's every move, and because Eric didn't really know much about how to be a father, he played with him in the way a sibling plays, kicking balls around on the terrace for hours and going for walks in the garden. Conor also got to know Erics mother and grandmother, and Roger too. Anyone who came into contact with Conor adored him. He was a little angel, really - a very divine being.

When Conor was four, on the evening of March 19, Eric went to the Galleria, an apartment block on East 57th Street, where they were staying, to pick up Conor and take him to the circus on Long Island. It was the very first time Eric had taken him out on his own, and he was both nervous and excited.

It was a great night out. Conor never stopped talking and was particularly excited at seeing the elephants. It made Eric realize for the first time what it meant to have a child and be a father. Eric remembers telling Lori, when Eric took Conor back, that from then on, when Eric had Conor home on visits, Eric wanted to look after him all on his own.

But then the next day (March 20, 1991) four year old Conor, died on impact after a fall from the 53rd-story window of his mother's friend's New York City apartment, landing on the roof of an adjacent four-story building. The main sitting room had windows along one side that went from floor to ceiling, and they could be tilted open for cleaning.

On this morning the janitor was cleaning the windows and had temporarily left them open. Conor was racing about the apartment playing a game of hide-and-seek with his nanny, and while Lori was distracted by the janitor's warning her about the danger, he simply ran into the room and straight out the window. He then fell 49 floors before landing on the roof of an adjacent four-story building.

That day Eric was up early because he had to pick up Lori and Conor and take them to the Central Park Zoo. At about 11 a.m. the phone rang, and it was Lori. She was hysterical, screaming that Conor was dead. Eric thought to himself, This is ridiculous. How can he be dead?

And he asked her the silliest question: "Are you sure?" And then she told him that he'd fallen out of the window. She was beside herself. Screaming. Eric said, "I'll be right there."

Lori was not about to go down to the mortuary, so Eric had to identify him on his own. Whatever physical damage he had suffered in the fall, by the time Eric saw him they had restored his body to some normality.

Eric remembers looking at his beautiful face in repose and thinking, This isn't my son. It looks a bit like him, but he's gone. He went to see him again at the funeral home, to say good-bye and to apologize for not being a better father.
