Hug your kids

<serious thread>

Friend of the family had a daughter who was born with a heart defect.

The girl died a couple of days ago following heart surgery. During the surgery a tube was inserted into the heart, the tube slipped out of the heart a couple of days after the surgery, the girl bled out and died.

She was 2 years old.

Hug your kids and tell them you love them.

Good advice any time, but sometimes you need an extra one.

One of my best friends lost his 14 year old son (only child) back in August. He is still dealing with the pain and sense of loss. He is selling his house and looking to move just because it is too painful having all the reminders and memories living there.

It is something you can't even imagine the horror of until you've gone through it. I have a son of my own and I can't imagine, well, I can because I've seen first hand what my friend is going through but I imagine what I've seen and the pain I've felt because of his loss is just a tiny tiny fraction of what he's feeling. :'(

Deepest sympathies for you, your friend and his family.

I do not know the exact details.

The family posted pictures of the funeral on facebook. It was sad to see this small pink coffin ready to be put in the gorund.
