I think most of us who have lost our babies have endured that additional cruelty. Our daughters matter, are deeply loved, and to minimize our losses is never okay.<br /><br />My dearly loved baby had Down syndrome, too, and so your story held extra meaning for me. That girl at the coffee shop IS perfect, with her extra chromosome of awesomeness. As was my daughter. I wish she were alive right now.MissingMollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06392712704302023431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-984330758590198929.post-62139386107019171922012-08-19T16:43:16.813-07:002012-08-19T16:43:16.813-07:00(((Paula)))

To hurt you, of all people, you who are a voice and champion for those who face loss and feel they have no voice of their own. It hurts me. I have found that when others have no frame of reference for the pain of the losses someone has suffered, they can be quite insensitive and at times harsh. They just don't get it. But it still really is no excuse, I feel.<br />It was such a beautiful thing you did for the family at the coffee shop. And, I do think that the beautiful, perfect, little girl who continued to wave at you does know something... Angels do walk among us.<br /><br />PaulaTears in Novemberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06324366434018703450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-984330758590198929.post-11951773270453878312012-08-17T15:44:56.949-07:002012-08-17T15:44:56.949-07:00Dear Joanne,

I think the little girl somehow knew the kindness came from Cheyenne through you even without ever seeing or necessarily knowing of the RAOK card.<br /><br />My heart goes out to you.<br /><br />Love, MOJBug Familynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-984330758590198929.post-54357359716023558742012-08-17T03:55:20.818-07:002012-08-17T03:55:20.818-07:00I'm constantly experiencing such intense longi...I'm constantly experiencing such intense longing to see my son and anguish that I will never see him again.
