Scoble said I couldn’t look at this without crying.

He was right.

    Thanks for sharing. I couldn’t look at this without crying. Sometimes we need to be reminded about how special life is and to put things into a better perspective. I’m glad you chose to share this with everyone.

    Speechless. Multiply this case by, what? Hundreds of thousands? Millions? Mums and dads with young children seriously ill or handicapped? Doing their acts of unsung heroism daily? At least Derek has medication and access to good medical care. Many do not.

    Now, folks, after seeing that prize-winning slideshow, can I interest you guys in a war? You know, we’re gonna “shock and awe” them suckers (whoever they are). It’s gonna be awesome. Anybody? No? No?? You wimps!

    Jesus Christ, forgive us, for we sure as heck haven’t a clue what we are doing.

    I am at such a loss for words!!! With 3 boys under the age of 5 I cannot imagine living life each day as if it were my last. But that is exactly what we are told to do. Live each day to the fullest, as if it were our last. Hold your children close to your heart and surround them with kisses. I know I don’t do that enough. How about you?

    After three tours in Vietnam I thought I was too harden to feel for others. Iwas wrong.

    My sister watched this and called me to tell me to be sure not to miss this. As I sat and looked at each picture and read the words, I thought how lucky I am to have a wonderful, healthy 9 year old son. What a brave young boy and a loving, brave mother. Life is so short; as another person said above, we need to live like today is our last and hug our children a little more.

    This was very touching. This is when you must have faith to edure such pain as this family has. Only God can get them through with the love of family and friends.
