Oh Rome2000.... I am so sorry for your loss, and for your pain, and know that there are so many folks here who can can speak to your feelings in a much more meaningful, and touching way, but well, while wholly inadequate, here I am.
I was awakened by our dog, and before I crawled back into bed, I stopped to check my mail, and FR... and there, at the top of the page was your heartbreaking post - in a prayer thread for a family who lost a child...
All I can tell you my FRiend, is that I could not go back to sleep without responding as you cried out; and that if it helps; my belief is that God does not inflict us with the pain in our lives. That He is, instead, there to help us endure it, in encouraging each of us to reach out when such seemingly unendurable pain strikes another of us...
May He rest her immortal soul, and bring comfort and strength to yours, dear FRiend. Then, with that strength, may you be able to help her beautiful children in this terrible time.
Do take care FRiend, and take time.
May God bless.
Tatt

My heart goes out to the parents and friends of the 10 year old child as well.
I will be there for my girlfriends kids, they are so young and cannot fully appreciate their loss which is merciful in its own way.
We will endure with the help of God, who brings us the light and will watch over us all praise be his name.
