Well, I don't normally like to air out my family's troubles, but this is something I just need to get off my chest. My niece lost her 6 month old baby boy this morning, she had gotten up early to feed him breakfast, and found him in the crib. We suspect that he died from SIDS, but we won't know anymore until the doctors have completed the autopsy. This is an awful thing, he hadn't even celebrated his 1st birthday!!!! I had seen him just a week ago, he had beautiful blue eyes, and a cheerful smile. It's a horrible thing to see an innocent child's like taken away, but it's beyond my control. At least he will not have to face the world, and will never feel pain again.

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss in your family, it is so hard when it's a baby. It does feel very awful when a baby is taken out of your arms to soon.I will say a prayer tonight for you,family and her little boy.And once again I'm so sorry..........

Please accept and pass along that your family is in our thoughts and prayers as well.

We just have one son (7 years old). He's the light of our lives. I can't even pretend to imagine what losing a child must be like. It would be an incredible amount of pain to bear. Be there for her as she will need strength to cope.

God Bless.

Sorry for your families loss Midas. It's sad how things had to end so quickly.

nathangdad · 01-31-2008, 07:19 PM

I know how hard, truly hard, it is to lose a young life. Know that this life is not lost but continues within the eternal love and protection of God. Your time apart will be short in terms of the spiritual reunion later for you and this soul. Be open to the love and healing of God for you at present. Take this opportunity to read of, learn of, and practice spiritual growth. It is through spiritual growth and the offerning of same to others that we experience our greater purpose on earth.
