After the first few minutes of reading, the tears starting rolling down my face. My heart goes out to you and your family. His death must be tough, but like you said he is finally totally healed, He is with God now. that is much better than sufforing. I know it would be a very hard thing to see your baby boy in pain, and to see him pass, that would be unbearable for me to even think about having to go through. You are a very strong women, and i will keep you and your family in my prayers, while you greve the lose of your baby boy.<br /><br /> Rest in peace Gavin,you are in a better place now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910586890004736444.post-21017084105927523642009-11-09T12:31:20.687-08:002009-11-09T12:31:20.687-08:00Karen, Adam &amp; Madison,<br /><br />We know Gavin is truly healed and for sure little Ally Heintz, welcomed him in to heaven with open arms!!!<br /><br />We are praying for you and sending lots of hugs to you.We hope you are able to find some peace!!!!<br /><br /> lots of love,<br /> The DiCesare FamilySandranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910586890004736444.post-72495969115574165722009-11-09T12:17:13.972-08:002009-11-09T12:17:13.972-08:00I am so relieved to hear that Gavin is finally at peace, but my heart is breaking for your family.
