Heart wrenching decision and the news of your nephew's passing. Only solace in all this is that your nephew didn't suffer horrible pain and not knowing what was going on. And that your sister was able to hold him as he slid away from this world. Emotionally very wrenching...
Yes love the idea of everyone wearing a super hero T-shirt in remembrance. Times like this it's good to remember the good times the fun times and to cherish his memory.
My condolence to you and your family,
peace
Shawn

I'm so sorry too to read this news. There is never a good time to die, at least for those who are left behind. But the holidays are the worst, at least for us who have been going through something like this 2 years ago and 5 years ago (both during the holidays). My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family.

I am so sorry that you have to understand this pain, too. I hope that each passing time will heal some of that rawness. I find myself going from feeling warm with happy memories, then feeling guilty about that, then numb. I hate that I don't live closer and can only do so much to help after the next few days when we will be with my family. I know I'm going to feel really guilty getting back to our life on this side of the lake. I'm not sure how my sister and her little family do that. They can't. But I hope she will take advantage of all help she can for as long as she can.

Hugs Kirsten. Please tell us what day. I have a superhero t-shirt and I would be happy to wear it.

Oh, I am so, so sorry zoom-zoom. Heartbreaking.
