Thank you for sharing Audra. We lost our son to cancer 6 and some years ago. Ryder was 20 months old. I too sometimes think I’ve gotten past questions of what it would have been but then a song like “Breath” by Pearl Jam comes on in the Doctors office and I’m slayed — Crying away with my 4 year old daughter pretending I’m not. So many layers…Miss you Ryder – holding you and miss never knowing would you have been a piano player or a farmer? See you on the other side little man — thank you Audra

The love of a mother never ceases to stop nor forget the precious moment we share. What a heartfelt story of love. We cherish the short life we have with our loved ones whom in our hearts will remain forever. Thank you for sharing. Many blessings always, Brenda

Oh, my goodness Audra… As usual, your words are so beautiful and heartbreaking, and bring floods of tears as I read them and feel the pain that is mirrored in my life. I could write almost exactly what you have written, your description of how it feels to lose your first born, is just spot on. Being blindsided by the worst case scenario, losing the precious first and only child we had – completely unexpected and life altering from that point on. And of course our life has continued in almost the same way as yours – how utterly unfair to know that this happens so often that our lives can be so similar, even on opposite sides of the planet! Thank you for sharing Andy and your family’s story, and always doing it so eloquently! I feel so less alone and more validated in my feelings about Noah and our life after him because of you and your writing. My love and thoughts are with you always, but especially today xxx
