    Hi Carla,

    Our Angel Cherub Liam was born May 22, 2011 & earned his angel wings June 25, 2011. Words cannot express watching our daughter & son in-law making decisions that no parent should ever have to make. Jade never left Liam's side. Dustin stayed for 2 weeks but then had to return to work. There was a 5 hour driving distance to Children's Hospital in Boston as we live in Vermont. They also have a 2-1/2 year healthy son that Dustin's mom & I were caretaking for. The stress they put on themselves by wanting to be in two places at once and the manner in which they held everything together is truly amazing. I cannot imagine what they go through each & every day and we all thank God for Landon who is the glue that holds us together and reminds us that "Momma says there are no boo-boo's in heaven". He is a truly joyful spirit. His plan we are not privy to his plan but one day we will all be together.

    I pray for peace, comfort & solace for you & your daughter and that God show you both grace & mercy.

    Thank you for responding ~ some days are better than others; however I never know what will trigger my emotions. Our family had tremendous hometown support. We have vowed to pay it forward in Liam's Memory.

    Blessings Always,
    Maria

    Hi Maria, my name is Carla and I too am a grandmother of a CDH cherub. Reading your blog I understand how you are feeling. We lost our little Kage 14 hrs after he was born. He was born on December 1 and past away on the 2nd. What a devastation. I feel like I have been hit with a double whammy. My heart is breaking for my daughter and my heart is breaking over the loss of our dear Kage. I wonder if I will every stop crying. This is so hard and sometimes I feel like I should be strong for everyone and then my feelings just get pushed away. I manage to get through with the strength of God. Without him I don't know how I would.

    Mom,

    I am so glad that Mikey didn't listen to you this time! He's an awesome Dad! As I've said before, do not live feeling regretful. We all have regrets- I beat myself up constantly. Hindsight is 20/20- I wish it wasn't. When I'm beating myself up and feel lonely, I think of this: When God calls me to Heaven, I will receive the ULTIMATE gift- a gift that far exceeds any hopes and dreams- that gift is: LIAM! I will finally get to hold him, listen to him babble, comfort him when he cries, see him smile. Just the though of that warms my heart! Not many people can say that they will have the same gift when they get to Heaven. Landon and Liam are the reason I live and breathe! When I'm not with them, it's like I don't have any air. The fact that Liam is not here physically takes half of my air away. I think of Liam, I picture his face and talk to him. I ask him for air. I ask him to show me he's with me. He ALWAYS shows me that he's with me!

    I love you, Momma! I'm so grateful that God has blessed ,e with you as my Mom!

    Love Always,
    Jade

    I am so sorry for your loss. Im sure Liam knows how much you love him. Tomorrow is 9 years since my little girl was lost to CDH. Maybe she has Liam under her wings.
