March 9, 2003

My son, my heart. There is no word to express the depths of pain I am experiencing. I held you in my arms for the first time the day you were born, and wondered what the world would hold for you. If I could have stood in front of you and taken the stabbing of that knife to save you I would have not hesitated, so that you may haved lived. I love you son and will be anxiously waiting for the day I can see and hold you again. Love Mommy
