Shena I'm so sorry to hear about your precious baby. Just know she will be with you everyday and we will see out babies again one day. I miss Grayson everyday we lost him at 4 months old when he was at daycare and I was at work. It was the worst day of my life I share in your pain, and I'm here if you ever need to talk. It's hard but turn to God everyday and never lose faith in him. We don't understand why things happen here on earth but he will comfort you and he knows all of our thoughts and pain. May God bless you and your family. Love, Candice
