I've been reading your blog for a while now. I came across it last June and after Jacob's birth I couldn't help but coming every now and then just to see how you were. However, I've never dared to make any comment. I was aware of being a total stranger, and I didn't want to say anything that might seem trivial or superficial to your loss and your sorrow. I never had the feeling that I could say anything useful or sensible enough.
Today is not really different. I still feel I don't have words good enough. But I had ot say that your tribute to your son is so beautiful that made me cry.
Where I live we strongly embrace each other in difficult times. We hold the loved ones thight in our arms and try to give them strengh to go on. And although I'm still a total stranger, I'm sending you and your husband one of these.
Un fuerte abrazo, Gatxan
PD. After re-reading it, this is more like an email than a comment. But there isn't a contact mail in your blog. Of course, you don't have to publish it if you don't want.
Jules, Like gaxtan, I came across your blog this past summer after the loss of your son, Jacob.
I too am a stranger, checking in periodically on how you and your husband are doing.
The tribute to your son was incredible. I have cried many tears for you and your husband.
I appreciate reading your blog. It is personal and candid. It is inspirational to me.
They say that time heals all wounds. I remember the losses in my life and the times when I have felt the pain would never lessen. But I have never lost a child. I cannot imagine.
I too have been reading your Blog since summer, I was linked here from the"miracles and dremas Blog" right around the time Jacob was born.
The strenth you have shown in your posts is something I have never seen before.
Like many others seeing that video I sat here tears coming down my face, my thoughts and prayers are for you and your husband during this time.
Thanks for sharing Jacob and your life with me, I have learned so much just from reading this blog.We never really relaize how much we take for granted.I am sure you have helped so many people through your struggles and grief.

So beautiful. What a precious tribute to your little man.
Oh man, I should not have watched this at work! Tears are streaming down my face for you.
This is a gorgeous tribute to Jacob, I hope Saturday was a special day for you and Brian, remembering your sweet boy.
