I hope your move today goes well. You and your daughter are in my thoughts and prayers.

When words are not enough... I am, like so very many others tonight, thinking of you and your daughter, and I am so very very sorry OP...

OP, I've been thinking about you all night. My heart is broken for you. I wish I had some words that could alleviate your pain. Our situations are different, but I lost an infant daughter to a congenital disease and of course it was and continues to be the worst pain of my life. Why some children are struck by illness or any misfortune and some are healthy and fine is a mystery. You and your daughter are in my thoughts. Please know that you are not alone.

Another mother reaching out through cyberspace to offer my prayers. May your daughters suffering be alleviated.

In addition to hugging your children today, everyone PLEASE sign up to be a bone marrow donor. Yes, it costs money, but wouldn't you all pay $50 to OP if it meant a cure for her beloved daughter??

Please. Do it. Be the Match. http://marrow.org/Home.aspx

OP - I just signed up to part of the donor program. I did this, because my heart breaks for you in this situation and am willing to help in any way I can to save someone else. I promise to follow through if I am a match. Hugs to you.

I did as well.

Wow OP, my heart goes out to you and your family.

Such a brave and loving mother. I can't imagine how unbearable the pain must be. I know of others who have outlived their children and have borne such pain. You are an amazing mother doing only what a mother could do at a time like this - love and comfort your dear child.
Peace and prayers for your family. Be strong and know in that sharing your story you have touched and helped so many who are also dealing with suffering too. Thank you.

OP, my heart goes out to you and your daughter - major hugs and love and prayers sent your way. I am so very sorry.

OP, my heart breaks for you...I am so so sorry. I wish I could do more than just sit here with tears and a lump in my throat...i wish i could more than just send you strength and love from afar. I can't begin to imagine what you are going through, but your words so eloquently put me there...and they honor your daughter. You, your daughter and family are in my thoughts and prayers. please let us know how we can we helpful. I wont be able to stop thinking of you and your daughter. I tell my kids i love them all the time but i vow to tell my 17 year old twins and my 4 year old, that they are the light and joy of my life.

Thank you for sharing your story. Wishing you and your family peace and love through these trying times. And giving my children some extra hugs.

I'm so sorry too OP. My daughters are sleeping now, but I will keep your words in my heart tomorrow (and the days after that) and will cherish my time with them.

And dads. Sending you lots of love, dear anonymous OP, where ever you are.

OP, I am so very, very sorry for yours and your daughter's pain and I will be hugging my DDs a little closer in the morning. Thank you for sharing this moment with us so beautifully. It is clear how much your daughter is loved.

There is no greater pain. OP, I am so sorry.

My heart goes out to OP and to the PP who lost her son -- really, to all the mothers out there who have outlived their children. But OP, know that there are so many of us thinking of you tonight and tomorrow, as you move your daughter to hospice. Is there anything you would like us to do in your daughter's honor? Let us know -- maybe there is some small thing we all could do to show you our support.
