Little Miss Tuesday


Tuesday and Piper

I have NO words.
When I got the call last noc, I did ok until I tried to tell Jason.
Some may think it is silly to cry over a child I haven't ever met.
Though, I don't feel as though I haven't met her. I feel as though she lives in the next town over. Granted, she doesn't, but as much as I have exchanged stories with her mom... she might as well be!
I cry b/c I can't imagine going through this myself.
I cry b/c I can feel the anguish her mom must feel.
I cry b/c I care.
I cry b/c NO child should have to experience cancer.
Lastly, I cry b/c I ache for her siblings and esp her twin, Piper.

May God comfort them and keep them in the days ahead.

Christy, this is beautiful, and you hit it right on the nail as to why we care so much.

This is incredibly lovely Christy...I have not been able to tell my husband for the very reason you describe so deftly.

Peace to the Whitt family....and all who are suffering similar loss unknown to us.

Same here. I was okay. No tears. Until I told Savanna and MacKenzie. How do you answer a childs simple questions about "How did she die?" "Why did she die?" She will be missed by many!
