Icon9 Sad News- Death mentioned

Hi Ladies,

I just wanted to let you know I will be missing for a little while.

Late last night L and I got a call from our director advising us that Silas Minh had passed away on April 1st. We are not clear as what happened exactly but we do know he became very dehydrated and by the time he got to the hospital he had passed away.

I am not sure what are next steps are but for now we are going to take some time to try and heal our hearts and souls. Please say a little prayer lifting Silas up into heaven.

Hugs, K

I lurk over here -- but I'm coming out of hiding to offer my condolenscenses. This is very tragic and I am so sorry that you both have to endure this pain. It is comforting to know that he was loved and will forever be in your hearts. I can't imagine what our higher power has in store for both of you but it must be truly amazing for you to deal with this. Please take time and morn. More people are supporting both of you than you can imagine. ((((((HUGS))))))

Oh no. Oh Kristine. I am so very, very sorry. I am just sitting here covered in tears for you. I can't imagine.

I wish there was something more I could say than we are here for you. But we are. We are all here feeling your hurt with you and sending you and Lu our strength and love.

I am sending prayers that Silas is now resting peacefully in the good Lords arms in heaven.

God bless you Sweetie. I am holding you in my heart.

I also am just another lurker but after reading this tragic news I had to let you know that I was thinking of you and am so sorry for your loss! At least be comforted with the fact that your little guy was loved!! I know it doesn't make it any easier but when the time is right I think you will make wonderful parents!! I will be praying for u and Lu!

Hi Ladies,

Thank you so much for all of your kind words and support! I can not even begin to tell you how much it helps to know you have this group of people that you have never really met help hold you up during such a difficult time.

I can just send you all hugs because i have no words!!! YOU ALL ARE THE BEST!!!
