I just wanted to send my prayers to you and your family in this time of need. I dont know what I can say to take the pain away or to take back time. I couldn't know how you feel but I know what it is like to have a baby that you love so very much being that I have a daughter that is 2 months. If you need any thing please dont be afraid to call even to chat if you need to.

Dearest Heather,
You have been in my thoughts and on my heart for the last week. I wished for a miracle when I heard of the tradegy and hoped with everything inside of myself that your Angel would be alright. I am so very sorry for your loss, Heather. I read your blog and those words are so beautiful and so true. He was a blessing, a beautiful boy and he made everyone around him happy. Always, when he walked into a room I would see the faces of the Residents light up. We all loved him. I wish I could take your pain for you, I wish I could comfort you.
You're in my thoughts, Heather, and if you need anything, anything at all, please do not hesitate to ask.

Dear Heather, No words can express the saddness I feel at the loss of your precious little boy. Even though I do not know you personally, I knew Aiden from daycare. I would see his beautiful smile when I would go for my granddaughter. I have visited your myspace page and read your beautifully written words about Aiden. He was very blessed to have you for his Mommy. The words were so touching that I felt in my heart how very much he was loved and what a good Mother you were. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. May God's comfort surround you.

Heather,
I hope you know we're here if you need us. I too am a mother of an angel and although I have since had Chloe she hasn't replaced the baby that was lost. I have been praying that God gives you the strength to get`through this terribly challenging time. With much love and support,

Dear Heather,
The children and I are sorry to hear of one of the most painful losses on earth. We do not know the answer why things happen that are this painful. Remember that the love you shared will never be extinguished. The Lord is holding his hand for you for a while. One day you will hold Aiden's hand again. You will always hold your special love and memories in your heart.
Remember, there are no tears in heaven.
Deepest sympathy,
Ruth, Sebastian, & Sebrina

Dear Jerry, Heather and all who were touched by Aiden's life. I will always carry deep sorrow in the loss of this precious little "blue eyed angel." Aiden was a very special child! I am thankful for the time that we had with him, and wish God would have given us more time to be together. My children loved Aiden so much, and Aiden loved them too. He was such a funny, happy little guy who loved to laugh, and loved to make others laugh. When my children would laugh because of a funny face he made or hearing his cute little talkative "Aiden language", or seeing his cute tootheless grin, he would start laughing with them, and then before you know it all of us couldn't stop laughing. He brought so much joy to our lives. I never knew a more happy and content baby! He was such a loving child, he always wanted to be with you, in your arms, close to you, giving his open mouth, wet "Aiden kisses" He was such a joy and has brought so much to our lives. We will always treasure the precious memories we have of Aiden and be thankful for the time we had with him. My thoughts and prayers are with our families, friends and everyone that grieves the loss of this wonderful little person. We will love and miss Aiden forever!

To the family of little Aiden,
You don't know me but I know Amy who knows you, I am from Lancaster and my daughter very recently lost her 2 month old son, he passed at his babysitters house suddenly we still do not know why. I just wanted you to know that my heart goes out to you all in this most difficult time in your lives, I am so sorry that you have to experience this unbearable pain no parents should ever have to go thru the heart break of losing a child. Baby Jared passed end of January and believe me not a day goes by that my daughter isn't grieving, I don't know that things will ever be the same for you ever again and don't let anyone say to you that hasn't lost a child that they know how you feel, because they don't, they mean well but know one could ever know the pain you feel unless they have been there. God bless you and know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. As I tell my daughter always remember Aiden loved you all so very much as did you him.
Sincerely,
Brenda Hohman

Heather, Paul, Jimmy & I were so saddened to hear about Aiden's accident. He was a very special baby boy. I often watched him in church sitting there smiling, laughing and reaching out to everyone. He was truly a gift from God and I wish that he could've brightened our days here on earth for a lot longer, but God had other plans for him. God is now watching over him and they are both looking over you and will help you get through this loss. May God's love give you peace. You and your family are in our prayers.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Heather I am so sorry and can not even imagine how you must be feeling. If there is anything at all I can do for you and your family please don't hesitate to ask.
With love and sympathy,
