In 1986 my son Ryan was born, he was my 2nd child. He was beautiful, but he was not perfect. He was born with a heart disease called tetrology of faillot. He grew so fast and he was such a joy. His older sister Nicole and he used to love to sit and watch MTV video awards. (She was 4, he was 7 months. He did everything early, he rolled over early, at 5 mos he was pulling up to furniture and walking around. He was doing great. The doctors were amazed. Then on the morning of August 9th, 1987 he took sick. By the time we got him to the hospital the next morning, he was unconcious. He never again woke up. They worked all day trying to get his heart to beat properly, but at 8:30 on August 9th, they stopped. 1/2 hour later as I held him in my arms, God took mine and his angel back home!! Its been
18 years this year, and I still hurt on this date. I just wish I could have 1 day with him, to make sure he knew how very special he was and how much his mommy and his family loved him. His sister Nicole, has never forgotten the little brother she had such a little time with. Please my prayers go out to anyone who loses a child, and anyone who ever feels the need to talk to someone who has lived with the pain for a long time, feel free to contact me. It helps talking to someone who really knows how you feel!! God Bless!!
