Healthy, happy 3.5 month old. Was napping, when checked on was not breathing. DIL was out here visiting with the kids for the summer and over her girlfriend's house.
What makes this especially hard is that my son is deployed and can not be here when his son is laid to rest; as a Dad that part of this ordeal is killing part of my soul. |

I've got a 4 month old and this is my biggest fear. Scares the shit out of me especially because he likes to roll on his belly when he sleeps. You have my prayers, this is awful I am so sorry.

I'm just coming into the grandparent game myself. I am very sorry for your loss.
|
|
|
So sorry for your loss!
When my boys were younger I was so scared of that. We had one of those Angel Care monitors and I don't know if would have made a difference but at least it gave us a bit of pease of mind. |
|
I cannot even begin to comprehend what you and your family are going through. I am incredibly sorry to hear this.
|

As a somewhat "new" father (2 yr old), I find this heart wrenching. Prayers sent.
What a terrible loss. I've heard of this happening and I can't reasonably imagine the pain it must cause. If it's any consolation--God called that child back. We can make feeble attempts to understand why, but just trust in the Lord and know that there must have been a good reason. |

HIGHLY recommended for parents of young children. The peace of mind is worth it. To the OP: you have my condolences. |

Hug and love one another, during this tough time! My prayer is for the family.......
|

My thoughts and prayers out to you, your family and the little one, OP. I can't even imagine how difficult this must be for all of you.
|
|
I am so sorry for your family's unimaginable loss. My prayers are with you all.
|
|
I couldn't even immagine. A parent or grandparent's worst nightmare!
I try to remember to hug and kiss my boys every chance I get, because life is too short to miss out on one! |

I lost my daughter to SIDS 10 months ago and tried to resuscitate her being a paramedic. Sadly, the sorrow will never fully go away because your child will always be missing from your life, but the mourning becomes less frequent and but still daily.
If able, please PM my your sons address as my wife and I would wish to write a letter if sympathy and maybe send out a care package. Prayers sent. |
|
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. That is absolutely tragic.
|
|
I'm so sorry for your loss, I can't begin to imagine; prayers out.
|
|
So sorry OP. I will pray for you and your family. I also wouldn't mind sending something to your son if you can send me his address.
|
|
Ugh, the more I think about this, the worse it gets. I just can't even imagine how wrecked I would be.
There is nothing I can say to make you feel better, but I sincerely pray for the relief of your pain and anguish. I just hope and pray that God rains buckets of grace and healing on you and your family. |
