You & your family have my love, thoughts, sympathy & condolences, and maybe someday you can be comforted by the fact that your darling is no longer in pain.

I am so sorry, young children should never have to bear the pain she had. I am just glad she is no longer in pain. I will be thinking of you and your family. I wish there was something I could say to ease your pain.

\*\* Roadwalker, \*\* all the words that come to mind sound empty and trite. I cannot imagine your sorrow and pain. I wish for your family and your precious baby that her passing is painless and peaceful and I know it will be cradled in the greatest love. I also wish that someday you are all able to cherish her memory joyfully.

**Roadwalker** -

If the prayers of a stranger help you, you have ours.

If the tears of a stranger help you, you have mine.

May our Heavenly Father send you and your family the gift of His peace.

_Hugs_

I cannot imagine what you are going through, but God be with you right now. I don’t want to say something trite, but I do believe she’ll always be with you.

Be strong and know that you are in my thoughts.

Nobody… **especially** a young child deserves to be taken by cancer. ☹

Dopers, If you can afford it, please make a donation to cancer research. It is a horrible horrible disease.

**Roadwalker** , I am sending a memorial donation to the Ronald McDonald house, but they want an address to send the announcement of the donation in Naomi’s memory. Could you email me with your address? The lady said it wasn’t absolutely necessary, but that they would like to be able to acknowledge it. If you could, email me at [Scotticher@aol.com](mailto:Scotticher@aol.com). If not, that’s fine…I’ll just send it without the address.

I am still praying for you, and holding you all in my heart.

My Love,

Cheri
