it's hard to express sympathy in the right way when something tragic happens. it will hurt for a long time, but time will help you (and them) heal.

when you're ready, or in need of information about support groups and such, i hope this can help you and your family a little....

I had a little brother who died of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) many years ago, even before I could really grasp the meaning of death and what impact it really had. His name was Christopher Jorge Gonzalez. He was only a few months old when he passed away, and the night that it happened is still crisp in my memory. My mother and father went for years to different SIDS meetings, and they came to terms with the fact that these kind of things happen- and people disappear for unexplainable reasons and it hurts. ALOT. We still remember him, and my mother prays to him when she needs help with something. Had he still been with us now he would be in high school and Mike would have had an older brother to look up to. Loss is difficult, and you never really forget it, and it never really leaves you- but when you're ready, time will heal over those wounds. I hope that in sharing this with you, you know that you're not alone and that love is all around you. Take care of yourself, buddy. Many condolences.

i'm really sorry, for you and your family. that's a horrible thing to have to experience. it happens much too often, too (read: at all). that happened to my aunt when they were all prepared for a baby girl. sad sad. i'm sorry it makes you so angry. i hope you feel better, and your family too.
