Melbo if you could leave this up for a bit please... My wifes best friend just lost her grand baby...he was 7 months old. his dad is navy,his mom is a nurse. he was at the baby sitters and was put on a bed with lots of pillows.. he was found on the floor... the are bringing him home...to be looked at and for the services it's been a hard... Thank you.. Please just prayers we just can't deal with any thing else.
My heart and my prayers to you, your wife and the family. Young lives lost are the most difficult to deal with. I am so very sorry for your loss.
Prayers, of course, said with a heavy heart at the thought of what the family and friends are going through
So sorry to hear about this. I was just talking to my wife today while watching our 12 mo old pick up a pen for the first time and scribble on some paper. The developmental changes in a baby happen 'all of the sudden'. One day they go from not moving at all to being able to crawl around a little. I believe God sent my Wife upstairs one day at about 7 mos to find our daughter about to plunge off our fairly tall bed. She had been sleeping in the middle of a pile of pillows like she had since week 1. That day she learned to move. She tells me she felt an irresistible pressure to go check on her even though the monitor wasn't making any noise, (It was unplugged). I can't even imagine the pain and loss she must be feeling right now. I pray she will be able to recover from this someday. I also pray for the baby-sitter. She too will have a tough time getting through this and the guilt that comes with this. It won't be easy.
My prayers are with your family and theirs. That is a heartbreak I cannot begin to imagine. Melbo, Lindsey took a tumble off of our really tall bed about a month and a half ago, same scenario. She was alseep surrounded by pillows, next thing we know we hear a BUMP and a cry. She was fine Thank God.
Sorry for the loss. You know doesn't matter how old the kids are either 7mo or 40. my sister passed away a few years ago of cancer she was 48 and my dad in his upper 70 is still messed up from it.
