Here is My Bow


I was recently asked by a friend, if I could offer support to a family that I've never met, but they lost their baby girl, suddenly. This friend forwarded me the blog and I immediately went to read the story. I know many of you may have already read the story of precious Maddie, but as I was reading I remembered every minute of the morning River passed away, and all of the details at the ER came flooding back. I understand the shock and pain of everything being "just fine" one minute and your baby dying the next.

I have been following this blog since that day, and today we were asked to honor Maddie by having our daughters wear bows. Well, I have no daughters, and I honestly don't even own anything with a bow on it. I still want to honor Maddie with a bow, and this is my way of doing so. I may not be physically wearing a bow, but my blog is.

Remembering this precious little girl and praying for her family to find peace, and healing in the times to come.

my heart is breaking for them too. i too have been reliving every moment of oct 12th while reading her blog. it breaks my heart that one more has "joined our ranks." heck, it breaks my hearts that we are living this nightmare too. may i copy that bow? i don't have girls or bows, but would like to remember Maddie as well.

isn't is unbelievable how every detail can come rushing back? it is awful that any of us have to go through this, and every time I hear of it happening my heart breaks all over again. you are welcome to use this bow!

I was so saddened as I read her blog....all those painful memories came back to me as well. My heart aches for them. I'll be keeping them in my prayers.

Thank you, everyone. Kellie is my online friend. Maddie was taken from her way too soon.
