Tricia,
I am new to this forum and only now saw your terribly sad news. As a mother, the very thought of the pain you and your family are feeling takes my breath away. Losing a child is not something that any of us is supposed to do. I'm sitting here, wiping away the tears, and hoping that you can one day breathe again without hurting.
Please know my thoughts are with you,
Bonnie
Reading your story has just brought me to tears I know there are no words I can say to make you feel better. But I am so sorry for your loss. . My prayers and thoughts are with you and your husband!
My deepest sympathy to you & your husband. This is a poem for you.
"A Light For Ian "
Pain and suffering is to its end in this child's life
We shall not weep for this child, for he is now in a place of beauty
Where there is no war, no hate, and no death
Eternal life is to be brought forth through God by a soft glowing flame:
Strong enough to hold all his children
Containing a prayer that which all prayers are made,
A life, that which all lives are created.
You can't see this flame, yet you always know it is there.
You can't touch this flame, yet you can always feel its presence
This child has now seen God, and God has a need for him.
So, you see, this child did not die, he is reborn.
I know we have never spoken but I am so deeply hurt by the news I just read. May the Lord bless you and your family with the strength to get through this impossible time. You and your family are in my prayers. My God cradle you in his beloved arms baby Ian. Kim

I just got back from V.A. and read and re-read your post a few times. I'm stunned by your devastating news. I don't know what to say - there aren't any comforting words for what you're going through. My heart truly breaks for you. I'm so so sorry for your loss and I can only pray that you have strength to get through this. Know that we're all here for you.
I pray that God's love will surround you like huge giant strong arms and comfort and soothe you and your husbands grief.
There are really no words at all to express our condolences. Please let us know if you do a memorial for him. I would like to lend my support to either a foundation or cause in his name.
God bless you and your family!!
