My Dear Briana,
No one knows the depth of the loss you are experiencing except God. However, what I do know is that HE promised not to leave you or forsake you. And I know from my own experience with HIM that HE is faithful and HE doesn't lie. Anyway you turn in this HE is right there with you and my friend HE has your boy in HIS eternal care now. Don't you worry or fret because all of HIS promises are yea and amen, fixed and forever settled in heaven.

All my love and prayers are with you and your family,

Joyce Ridgeway
