I do not know your family or the circumstances of your loss, but know that pain of losing my 3 wk old son. Please know that my heart felt sympathy is with you during this time of sorrow. No words can express how you feel right not and the road is one I would hate for anyone to walk down, but hold fast to your memories, they are so precious. May God bring you comfort and solace.
