You know I...My heart is breaking with/for you all. You know I have said on several occassions that since I do not have children, I will live vicariously through you. I love Kayleigh and Kaden as if they were my own.<BR/><BR/>Before Kaden was born, I had a really bad case of the "poor me's" and just didn't see the point of making an effort in life anymore or fighting for anything anymore. Seeing Kaden and how he fought so hard for every breath and jumped every hurdle renewed my faith in humanity and God. He reminded me how important it is to keep fighting and stay strong and never give up no matter how bad the odds. So, in a way, Kaden saved me by reminding me how precious life is and how important faith in God is. I thank him (and you) for that and know that he is in Heaven playing with all his CDH friends without a worry. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for letting me be a part of his life, and for trusting me to be a part of Kayleigh's.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06063384251081402538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-66624337272601995.post-67437895389455445052008-09-20T10:51:00.000-04:002008-09-20T10:51:00.000-04:00Jamie,I hope the package I sent to you got there y...Jamie,<BR/><BR/>I hope the package I sent to you got there yesterday.

There is nothing anyone can say that will ease your pain, may your memories of your sweet baby boy help you heal. I found your blog through Angel Elli Reed's blog, who is very dear to my heart.

I want...I found your blog from Elliot Reed's blog. I wanted to let you know how sorry I am for your loss. My heart breaks for you and your family. Kaden is a beautiful little boy and so strong (I read your entire blog). <BR/><BR/>I too have a son, Kaden, who was born with a CDH (we almost named him Kaden James too, but decided on Kaden Thomas). He is now four and endured many struggles as well. We almost lost him several times. We left the NICU right before he was 11 months old. We have also recently lost our baby girl from a congenital heart defect. She was a little over 3 months old. I know the struggles you have been through having a CDH baby as well as going through the loss of a baby. It was very hard for us to explain the loss to Kaden, but felt it was definitely necessary. We now keep Ava's memory alive by letting Kaden pick out a bedtime story for himself as well as one for his baby sister. We put her picture in bed as we are reading, then pray for everyone, including Ava, blow her kisses in Heaven, kiss her picture and sing her a song. I thought I would share that with you just incase you are looking for a way to help your daughter get through things. <BR/><BR/>Angel Kaden was blessed with unbelievable strength. You have been given a gift that not many get. God trusted you with one of His most precious angels. He knew that you and your husband would provide Kaden with so much love and support for the time he was here. I am sure that Kaden felt your love and strength which helped him keep going. He wanted to stay with you as long as he possible could. <BR/><BR/>Please feel free to visit our blog when you feel up to it. If you need to talk to someone who understands, my ears are open. Know that my prayers will be with you all. Remember to hold on to each other.<BR/><BR/>Amy<BR/>www.kadenboeckman.blogspot.commommy to Kaden, Brody and angel Avahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07610063669468416297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-66624337272601995.post-25830040134006121072008-09-17T19:47:00.000-04:002008-09-17T19:47:00.000-04:00Kaden's Family,I arrived on your blog from Elli Re...Kaden's Family,<BR/><BR/>I arrived on your blog from Elli Reed's blog.

I'm sure that God gives them to special people that will cherish every moment they get with their babies and shower them with enough love to last them until they get to hold them again in heaven. It seems like there is an overwhelming number of tiny angels lately, but we all have a vast number of older angels up there just itching to cuddle some babies. <BR/>Please know you and your families are in my prayers.<BR/><BR/>Nancy Lewis<BR/>(Great-aunt to Baby Elli)Nancy Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16967096237932392737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-66624337272601995.post-81590099669624203242008-09-16T23:51:00.000-04:002008-09-16T23:51:00.000-04:00I am so sorry for your loss.

We have been praying for him and I have had you, specifically, in my heart since the end of last week. Kaden's courage and your faith has been an inspiration to me and many others I imagine. I can see the all sufficient love of Christ in you right now. I am humbled by your willingness to trust Him in your deepest sorrow. It was a scenario I was your situation that I feared would wreck my faith, yet I see you clinging with such boldness. You, James and Kayleigh will be in my constant prayers.
