Great article.
My sister lost an 8 year old daughter about 20 years ago. It is as bad as he says. But she was (and is) a woman of great faith. I do not see how now believers could endure it. She clearly drew strength for the Heavenly Father.
Over the years, she has shared her story and helped others to get through their grief.
Than you for posting this.

You cannot get through it without the three F's: faith, family, and friends.

"After having seen the crippling ramifications of a child lost, from an up-close-and-personal perspective, I know there is a more pressing concern. And that's why, at some private moment, at a quiet and contemplative time on Thursday, you would do well to maybe whisper a prayer that Tony and Lauren Dungy find the faith and the strength to just get through the next few days."
