Mandy,
I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of your precious Elijah. You and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers since I heard the news. I have not seen you in so long, but I can only imagine what beautiful babies you must have. I realize that it is difficult to make sense of this loss right now. Lean on the Lord where your only true comfort and stength can come from. He will never leave you even in this time of despair. Know that you are very loved by so many, and that you are not alone.

To Mandy and Jason,
My heart goes out to all of you, including Elijah's loving Thea, Lisa, with whom I work. I have been praying for little Elijah since his birth and am so very, very sorry that he has lost his valiant struggle. You have loved him and cared for him as much as any parents could love a sweet little son--from long before his birth and during these short five months that he had on this earth. My heart also goes out to his sister, who was going to be the best big sister a little guy could have in the years to come. There are no answers to this. Just know that many are sharing your pain and praying for you all.
