Things like this make you appreciate "the little things" in life, and make you realize how trivial most things are that we worry and/or get angry about. It also makes you stop and be thankful for having healthy, happy children and grandchildren...

Beautiful child and I am so sad he passed away. My prayers go out to his family. I have 3 young grandsons. The youngest we nearly lost due to low birth weight. Have a daughter also and to lose any of them would break my heart.

St Jude's is my favorite charity. I donate to them because I am greatful for my 6 healthy kids. I needed the whole box of tissues. Thanks so much for sharing this unforgetable story. RIP Dax in the arms of love.

This sad song reminds me so much of my oldest grandson who at 5 weeks was diagnosed with a rare type of cancer. He is now a healthy 12 year old but we nearly lost him. To Shriner s Hospital is Cincinnati Ohio Thank you for saving our baby Jacob. He still has to go for yearly scans but is now so far cancer free!

The tears did fall, but it just really assured me that my donations to St. Jude are worth it. To think of all the pain those little folks have to go thru before and during treatment is heartbreaking. But what a memory for the family to have on film. Thank God for St. Jude and all who devote their life for such a worthy cause.
