I don’t believe in coincidences. I believe everything happens for a reason. I know we have only met a couple of times, you are one of those, who are constantly on my mind! Ariel and Racecar and Brian and you, I think about daily. I don’t always comment, because, even as a fellow blogger, I don’t know what I can add to what has already been said! I follow you and I do love you! I love that you have made solid choices to move on, for whatever reason. I have the made choices to move on too, but my reasons are far different! I can never compare my life to losing children, I did lose a sister 21 years ago. I am sorry and happy to tell you it still effects me today! I have good days and rough days! I do associate my good days with my sister, even though my kids have never met her, I know they would! I am not sure if it ever stops hurting for a sister, I have been trying to stop it for 21 years, but I can tell you that it does make a difference in my choices for life! I do see you have found the same strength from James and Jake and I hope you continue to!

Your words have touched me and I am hugging my kids tighter. Thank you for sharing. I am keeping Maddie’s family and your family in my thoughts!

After reading this last night, I let Luke fall asleep in our bed because I just wanted to hold him. Thank you for the reminder, Beth.

My heart stopped beating momentarily when I read that Maddie was born premature because of pPROM @ 19 weeks. You know Burke’s story, so you know the similarities in their journeys. When my heart started beating again, it was broken for Heather and Mike. I will be praying for them. Thank you for passing their story along.

My heart goes out to them (and you). You will all be in my prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are certainly with this family. I can’t even imagine what they are going through.

I will be for sure praying. Seriously thank-you so much for sharing this with us – I cannot even imagine what they are going through.
