Dear Josh and Paige,
I am so sorry for you loss, even though we have never met. I work in Pediatrics and have seen the pain that parents sometimes endure, though I'm sure it's only a fraction of what you are going through now. I wish I could take some of the pain away from you. I only hope that the support of those around you and your faith bring you through this most trying time in your lives.
