Comment from Patty Palmer
My condolences for your daughter. I too held my son as his heart stopped beating too. It was a gift to be able to share that very minute with him. I read him some poetry I had written for him, It is a hard time when the anniversary of his death comes along. The holidays are the worst. I will be thinking of you through the holiday season. God bless!

Comment from Janice Canerdy
This one made me tear up. It is so lovely, well-written, and bittersweet.
You can always look back and find comfort in the fact that you were with her at the end--comfort in knowing she is with Jesus.

My tears are shed as your love flows and flows for the honest and truly authentic display of loss, grief, reward and healing. You are the essence of a winner already. No parent should suffer the loss of a child a gift from the great
I AM.

Comment from Darlene Franklin
It's been 11 years since I lost my daughter also, we're sisters in a tragic bond no one should have to face, but God is so faithful! My Jolene is my past and my future, but she's not a part of my present, and I'm at peace with that. I'm glad you share that same faith.

I'm glad that you have found solace in faith after such heartbreak as you describe. It's painful to read your two poems so I can only imagine how hard they were to pen. God blessed you to be present at the passing of your child as you were there at her birth.
Blessings Julia

Comment from Joanna S. Blue
Thank you for your honest and pure record of your grief. It is saddening, but strengthening as well to see how bravely you face what is still such a painful loss. I was thinking of you yesterday, oddly enough. Concerned, because I hadn't seen your writing in a while.
