A Must Read

This post made me cry harder than I ever have reading others' blogs. It may be one of the saddest, yet most beautiful pieces of writing, because it is so clearly straight from this mother's gut.

The sheer number of comments reminds me how wonderful the citizens of the blogosphere can be.

I am sure Liam is now a brilliant star.

That was heartbreaking and beautiful.
And, yes, I cried. (Still am.)

That was beautiful. Gotta go reapply the mascara...

Oh god. That was a beautiful post but such a horrible, horrible situation.

I bawled my eyes out when I read that the other day. I cannot believe that Kate could write something so beautiful and coherent after suffering such a loss.

Oh my God.. I am sick to my stomach ... that is heart wrenching.
I can't imagine losing my baby.
I just can't imagine.
How do people go on? I don't know.

I am just in tears.

Wow. I just spent the last 30 minutes reading her blog. It puts it all in perspective, doesn't it?

Thanks for sharing here.

That she is writing so eloquently through this is stunning. I would be curled up in a fetal position somewhere very dark with lots of drugs. Thanks for showing me that.

What a lovely tribute to her son.


I can't imagine her pain. I don't want to!
