So sad

My heart broke last night when I read the news that little Caemon passed away after his struggle with leukemia. It's not fair. It's not right. I wasn't expecting this to be his outcome at all. I really believed he would be cured. So the news shocked me to my core.

I didn't know Caemon's moms well even through blogging. I read their other blog but didn't discover it until well after Caemon was born. I didn't know, until today, how hard they struggled to have him in the first place, and now that I know that, I just feel angry. I can't understand why life is so unfair to some people, especially such obviously wonderful and loving people.

I have no words to convey the sadness I'm feeling for his mothers. I hope they are surrounded with the love of a strong support network, and I hope that the light and love from their online community will help hold them up during this impossibly difficult part of their journey.

Rest in peace, Caemon. I didn't know you, but I can tell you were an amazing little boy who was very, very loved.
