What a strong and brave young girl you are! I lost my son recently. He was a month old. Dean never left the hospital but I was up there with him everyday. One of the hardest things I ever had to do was to sign do not resuscitate papers. My son was very sick and on a form of life support. My son began to pass and I knew in my heart that I had to let him go. The doctors put him in my arms and I sang to him as he passed. I do not regret my decision. some babies are just so sick that not even doctors can help them. I don't know why this is and I suppose I could be mad at God, but I know that in my heart God is good. You gave concent to the surgery because your son needed it and as mothers we have to make the best decisions for our children. You gave consent to have the life support removed because it was time to let your son go and you knew that. You can not blame your self and it is o.k to be mad at God if you need to be. Remember, that God is good and that he has a plan for all of us. Even though your son was only here for a short time he had a purpose. Nanthaniel is in heaven now and when our time comes we will join our children.
You will be in my prayers.
