Goodbye

Jack died today at 12:14 pm. He was in my arms with his dad holding his hands.

I don't think I will ever have one second for the rest of my life where I don't miss him with all my heart.

He is finally at peace, and I was finally able to see his beautiful face, and hold him and hug him and kiss him, like a regular baby.

Thank you for all your prayers. Please, keep praying that my sweet boy is happy in heaven.

Hi,

I saw your story on the Philly boards on the Nest.

I am so sorry for your loss, words can not explain how I feel for you right now.

My husband and I lost our beautiful baby boy, Logan. He was at CHOP too, they were wonderful there. It's such a horrible feeling and after reading through some of your blogs, I know why you feel the way you do.

I am terrified of people forgetting about Logan, but as his mother and father we will never let that happen. He is always part of our family and his siblings will always know about him.

I am so sorry for your loss, please know that you and your family will be in our prayers and I like to think that Jack and Logan are buddies up in Heaven.

Take care of yourselves. If you ever want to talk, you can page me on the Philly boards.

I am sorry for your loss. I am sure he is having a blast in heaven with all of the other angel babies. Including my son Hayden who is also a triplet. I am not going to say I know how you feel cause we all grieve very different but I do know the pain of losing a child. It isn't easy and it will be something that you never get over. I think about Hayden all of the time you will never forget your sweet boy. And you are still very much a mommy to triplets. If you want to talk or need some sites that can help with this please let me know. You can email me at smacky81@yahoo.com. Once again I am so sorry for you loss.

I am so very very sorry for your loss. My heart just breaks for little Jack and for the family he leaves behind. Seeing the pictures you post... looking at his sweet sisters... I just cry for you. He was lucky to have such a wonderful mama, he was lucky to have you and daddy there with him when he passed. I'm going to hug my girls extra hard tonight and tell them to have sweet dreams and send baby kisses to Jack. <3

There are no words now that will offer you any comfort. But please know that in Jack's short life he touched so many people. The amount of comments you have received serve as testimony to how many people loved and prayed for Jack. I know Jack is in a better, pain free world, but my heart breaks for your suffering.

Oh gosh. Wish I knew you so I could give you a big hug. I'm so very sorry.

The wisest words I ever heard in the instance came from a Dad who had lost a son. The question put to him was - if you could bring him back would you. After a moment of deep thought the Dad responded "No, there is no way I could ask him to do that". The Dad said that from that moment on..the pain was not as bad a before because he know that "his son" was exactly where he would most wish him to be. I hope his thoughts are meaningful for you. Jack will always be your beloved son!

I've been struggling with what to say to you for days, since I originally read your post, and I'm still at a loss. I guess there are just no words sometimes. God bless you and your family. I pray (and am sure) your little peanut is safe and happy in heaven, watching over and waiting for all of you. Baby Jack is well loved and remembered.

As so many have said before me, you don't know me but I have been following your blog for awhile. I was really hoping never to read this entry. I feel like I have come to know you and your family, in a way, and my heart breaks for you. I've been trying to pull myself together for a few days now to post this entry. My whole family knows about little Jack now...and as so many have said here, he has touched many, many people and we will all remember him. I wanted to also say thank you - for taking the precious time you have to share him and his sisters with us, posting all the lovely photos and your eloquent and touching entries.

I am so, so, so sorry. More than I could possibly express here.

I am so sorry - I can't even imagine. I pull up your website almost daily to look at his sweet little face and it brings me to tears everytime. You can see in his eyes that he is a very special little boy and I'm sorry the world only got to experience him for a short time. Thinking of you and your family

Jack is a beautiful baby angel looking over all of us with that gorgeous face. We will all miss him so dearly. Even though, I don't know you personally, I feel like I do as everyone has said. Words cannot even describe how he has touched our lives. His legacy will live on forever. You and your family have such amazing strength.

A friend of mine sent me the link to your blog and have been reading it all morning. I am so sorry to read about your little Jack's passing. I cannot even begin to imagine how much this must have broken your heart. I am a NICU nurse and I can truly say that each and ever baby we care for stays with us in our hearts. I wanted to tell you that my little boy Benjamin was born on your triplet's birthday - October 11, 2007. He is a love and a joy and a precious gift from God. My little Libra, such a good boy. My God bless you and your family. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
