I was forwarded your blog today…and I’m speechless. My heart and my arms, they ache for you. You say you don’t feel strong and inspiring, well coming from a mother who’s biggest fear is your reality I applaud you for speaking, and I applaud you for sharing your story. I applaud you for not crawling into your bed and never coming out as I feel I would in your situation. You and your husband will be in my thoughts and prayers.

I dunno if you'll read this since somehow my feeds haven't been updating and I'm commenting on an old post. And I also didn't read all 200+ comments so maybe someone else already said it, but maybe the person who asked "how many weeks are you" was asking how many weeks you have survived bereaved. I think of you every time I see the color purple. Della’s last blog post..A Whole New Use for Pancakes

My son is just a month younger than Maddie. He is now cutting his third bottom tooth in the exact spot where Maddie had hers. I touch him and think of your daughter. My body aches for you and your grief. I wish I had the power to go back in time and undo it. I can't wrap my heart or mind around what you must be feeling, but I keep coming back to this blog and shedding tears over Maddie. I know people loose their children all the time, but I've never been so aware of that lose as I am of yours. I'm so very sorry. I celebrate each day with my son in Maddie's honor. You and your husband are in my thoughts. Autumn’s last blog post..Feline Friday: no better than a dog!

Please know that my family is praying for you guys. *hugs* Miranda’s last blog post..Chisel Class.. I'd rather have a toenail ripped out!
