    I have not been on here in a week. I am normally on here 10 times a day.



    On August 22nd my 32 week old son died. It has been the hardest week of my life. I spent the day after he died in the garage working on my 31 coupe. I am glad I had that car. It has helped me get through the week.



    Basically all I wanted to say was be thankful for those that are close to you and don’t take them for granted.

    I can't even imagine how you must feel, I'm a new dad as well, this must be so hard. You don't need to answer, but what happened? How's mom? There is no greater tragedy then when a baby passes, it makes me angry....

    As a parent, I can find no words to describe how sorry I am for your loss. I'll be praying for you and your family. Doc.
     
  19. My heart-felt condolences to you and your family.

    God works in mysterious ways, for reasons unknown to us.

    Yet He never gives one of His children a burden that He does not also provide
    the strength and comfort, to them, to get through.

    His love for you is greater than the sorrow you feel now.

    Your child is in His arms. Find peace in knowing that through His Son, you will be reunited.

    Brotherly love in Christ. I will keep you in my prayers.

    Bad things do happen to good people. We don't always understand why God works the way HE does but we must remember that all things work to good for them that love God.
    You and your family will be in our prayers. May God grant you that Peace that passeth all understanding.

    Im so sorry, your family will be in my prayers. I understand the healing of cars, after 8 months in Iraq, I got to come home for RnR for 2 weeks, I had a beat up 55 ford, and alot of guilt and grief issues to deal with because of being there, I worked on it every day, It helped me find my self again, God bless you and your family

    Let me add my sorrow to that of your fellows here. There is no greater hurt for a parent than the loss of a child. And thank you for the reminder to reach out to those close to us every day. I hope peace will find you soon.
