When our children pass from our arms into those of our Saviour, there is an emptiness that cannot be filled... There is no switch to turn of the nurturing, the need to protect, nor the desire to hold and kiss them one more time... There are no words to comfort through this journey, though many will fill the air... Yet it is the unspoken; the hugs that say, "I love You", the actions of a friend that meet a need in the household that you cannot seem to complete....and pray prayers that do not seem to make it to the lips, because they are so covered with grief.... From one Mom to another...Knowing your pain, praying your prayers...Love to you and the family! Kris Taitano
Lifting your whole family in prayers today. May God be with all of you during this time of great sorrow. Thinking of your gorgeous baby boy and how many people he has touched in his lifetime. Hugs and prayers to you, Tiffany.
I don't know you except for the preemie boards, but I know how powerful a comment can be...I wanted you to know you and your son have touched far beyond what you might think...we are thinking of you in Michigan and praying for your peace (if possible) and strength in this time of heartbreak.
What a wonderful quote. I've been thinking about you all day and can't stop crying when I think of everything that has happened. I'm heartbroken for you and so angry that this has happened. Please know that you're in my thoughts and prayers. Catie (from the board)
Our hearts ache with sadness and we are at a loss for words. May god bless you and your family and be with you during this time. Let him wrap is loving arms around you and give you comfort and strength.
Tiffany and family, I'm so sorry. I have loved catching up with your family every week, since I was friends with Tiff in high school. It seems much too sudden and unexpected for JW to leave this soon. I was showing my husband pictures of him and the first thing I could think to say about him was, "Look at him. He was a naughty little guy, huh?" And then we smiled and cried. I love your JW stories and pictures. Thank you for sharing him with all of us. Praise God for his life and the way he colored ours.
I am another stranger who just happened to find this blog through another one I read. I am so sorry for what is happening right now and I am in tears reading it. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. Your girls have one amazing angel looking after them now.
Ben/I are familier with you from New Hope. We are al-so friends with Daava too. I have stayed up a lot of nights to read your blogs since your twins were born and then Justice THUS I too was deeply touched by how you were able to keep up a positive attitude through- out all of his ups/downs. You are a terrific Mother who has already taught so many families what it takes to be a committed believer despite the pain/losses you have suffered whilst loving your son from his premature birth until he returned to the one who created him just for all of you to love ...even if it were for just a few months BUT his memory will always remain alive in within more than your own family BUT so many others whom Justice touched with- out ever knowing the power of his existence. Grieving is a healthier way to cope ...keeping your faith. Ben /Pat Crosswhite Spencer

Let me just say, I am so sorry you are going through this, and my thoughts and prayers are with you.
