R.I.P, that little girl's life was cut too short

If our purpose is to make the world a better place then Mieko, as little as she was, certainly succeeded. Her smile, her determination, her strength and courage, and her joy made such a lasting impression, even on those of us who never had the chance to meet her. My heart is with you and I know those traits you gave her will serve you well. Thank you so much for sharing Mieko with us.

Shawn and Maya, I am truly sorry for your loss. No words can express my deep sense of loss for you; however, know that your angel is in heaven playing with the other angels. My thoughts are with you.

Dear Maya and Shawn,
My heart breaks for you, I can see Mieko's smile and hear her giggles from the videos/pictures you sent out. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

ShawnJohn:
I am so sorry about your loss. Mieko was a beautiful little girl and you were all blessed to have each other even for such a short time. They must have needed another angel in heaven. You and your family are in my prayers.

Maya and Shawn:
My heart has a piece breaking away. Your mother and I love you Maya and feel deeply for you at the loss of your beautiful little daughter Mieko. You and Shawn could not have done more for her. Take this amazing baby girl's experience with you everywhere to help make your family forever strong against the bad time in life.
Love Deb and Jon

Maya and Shawn,
My heart goes out to you both. I have so enjoyed watching Maya shine on video and in the photos you sent. She will be greatly missed but I can see her and my beautiful Louise dancing through the flowers in heaven hand in hand. My prayers will be with you both over these next weeks and months.

Maya and Shawn,

What a beautiful obituary for your little girl! And Mieko was definitely a beautiful little girl. I wish I could have been there for her memorial service even though we have never met. I feel as though I know you through Tri-Family and the work you have done to educate people about genetic abnormalities like T-18. My granddaughter also had T-18. I always looked to Mieko as an inspiration.
My sympathy is with you as you journey on.
