Unhappy Little guy didn't make it!!

My wife had our third child on the 10th of january. He was 1 1/2 months early. He was doing good untill last night at about 7pm. then things started to go down hill fast, started to have breathing problems,then quit breathing had to put him on a vent. then his stomache swelled up like a basketball. turns out he had a hole in his intestine, the surgen went in to fix it and discovered that most of it was infected and dying off wasn't any thing they could do it all happened so quick. Eric Lawrence Kimmel died at 1:30pm today. Dave.

That is tragic. I have often wondered why the very young are lost - and all I can think of is that they aren't really lost...

Gathered is a better way of thinking of it, at least for me. Gathered home to the almighty, perhaps to spare them, perhaps because they are blameless and perfect just as they are at so young an age. Unspoiled, undamaged, free of guile or ill will, and still possessed of great hope and wonder in and of all things.

Go with the Lord, young Eric. We will always wonder who you were, and what you might have done in this world, but you are where you are supposed to be I guess. I hope we will see you again some day.

Sympathy from my family to yours. I read things happening like this and it always makes me think of what I'd feel like if I were to loose any of mine. It's a horific thought.

I'm so sorry for your lose. You and your family will be in our prayers!

TUFFY, I can't convey how sorry I am with a post on a website.

But know that you, your family, and Eric are in everyone's prayers here at FTE.

God Bless, and I wish you all the best out of such a tragic situation.

Ryan

I know saying I'm sorry for your loss is probably getting tiring to hear, we all feel for you. Unfortunately, I can understand where you are, was there a few years ago, still there, and always will be. It is hard to have so much hope for a child, to lose them so quickly. My little girl was almost 2 when I lost her, so much life, personality, such a beatiful child, all gone in a tragic moment. If you need someone to talk with, to just blabber to, that has been there, don't be afraid to give me a call. Doesn't have to be about anything specific, just to talk, it does help. Keep friends and family close, they want to be there for you, let them help. Don't hold the hurt in, let it out,it IS OK to cry, let it out. Be there for your wife as well, she needs you now through this time more than ever. Be sure to talk with her, let her know that you feel as well, if they think you don't then things can turn sour. I have been blessed with a wonderful wife that stayed with me through it all, but we kind of have our times even still. They want to hear from us, and I just don't talk about it much, which kind of bugs me, but it is my way of coping, I don't tend to talk much about it, and that can be a problem sometimes. If nothing more, get grief counseling, many churches give it free and without any strings attached.
