<p>Their baby lived for 15 days.  He just couldn't handle the stress on his heart and lungs anymore.  I can't even imagine.</p>

<p>It's just so tough.  A couple of decades ago, he would have died within an hour of birth.  And now all this technology and interventions prolonged his life for two weeks.  They couldn't avoid the interventions; there was always a hope he'd get better.  But maybe it would have been a small mercy not to have it dragged out.  I guess there's not much point in speculating about it.</p>

<p>Jebba,  I don't know the family, but I am sure that they are surrounded by love and caring at this time.  What I'm concerned with is how you are doing?  I know that you were consumed with this horrible situation, and I want to know who you have to turn to?</p>

<p>Grizz, your kindness shows what a wonderful person you are.  I have my spouse and friends.  And my own dear children to smother with love.  Thank you.</p>

<p>Sometimes one simply can say nothing, much as they want to.</p>

<p>I know they must feel alone, but I also know your friends will realize they have a mountain of support to lean on. The hurt I see and feel in your posts is just a small inkling of that. I am so sorry for them.</p>

<p>Jebba, I was kind of wondering about how your kidlets are.  A new baby in the circle of friends is an exciting time, does little miss Sunshine have an undertanding of what is happening?<br><br>

<p>wr4c- the kids are okay.  They are a bit befuddled.  They feel like it's no fair.  But it doesn't seem very real to them, I think.  Bless my little 4 year old's heart, when things were still touch and go he suggested that maybe Daddy could make baby Max feel better because Daddy is a doctor.  Sniff.</p>
