Hudson was such a beautiful baby. It is sad that it takes such a tragic experience to truely remind us what a miracle the birth of a healthy child is. The Lichtmann family has been and will continue to be in our daily thoughts and prayers. We are thankful Hudson was able to experience so much love in his short life.

Eric & Melinda-

I really enjoyed meeting Eric at our Changing Lives presentation at Baptist Medical Center. I learned a lot about NKH and was impressed by what a great advocate Eric is. I was so sad to hear about Hudson's passing. My prayers are with you both. Hudson was a beautiful boy with a special spirit and purpose. I know he will be missed and hope that you find comfort through family and friends and creating the memorial fund in his name.
