RIP Precious Layla Grace

The day she passed was the day my son was born. It made me cherish and appreciate him all the more. Even now I just hold and cuddle him as much as I can to cherish all the tome I have with him.
I hope her family heals quickly. My heart goes out to them.

Layla Grace's life story made me feel the same way. Such a brave, beautiful little angel.

I recently heard about her story 2 weeks ago. It is so sad when a child has to go through something like this. She is in her heavenly father's arms now. I pray for her family.

I just recently discovered their blog and Layla's story. I missed the Tweet about her passing.. I have tears in my eyes. This is a parent's worst nightmare.

Oh no. My heart and thoughts go out to her family. :(

It's amazing how people you've never even met can affect you so much. I had never heard about Layla until I saw someone retweet that she "joined the angels." I didn't even have the strength to read the blog or anything more. Just knowing that there was a 2 year old little girl who had to go through this horrible illness and that her parents now have to deal with the pain and sorrow of her passing was too much for me. Last night, while my 2 1/2 year old was being his typical pre-bedtime silly self, I looked at him and was both very happy that he was in my life and very fearful about something happening to him.

We've had some scares with him and his brother. Nothing anywhere close to as serious as Layla's illness, mind you, but still more than enough to last me the rest of my life. No parent should ever have to see their child like that and no child should ever have to suffer through that.

Jane I saw your tweet this morning regarding Layl a Grace, and I read her blog with tears streaming down my face, this is effected me so much as my Ex boyfriend's nephew (we were together for 8 years and still talk) was diagnosed with the same condition as Layla, Finlay is currently on his 5th round of Chemo and just has surgery to remove the tumor, but it is also in his bones. Finlay is only 18 months old. It seems so unfair that these little children have to suffer. I can only hope that God does really have a greater plan...

My thoughts are with Layla's family this is every parents worse nightmare

I too read Layla's story with tears streaming down my face. Makes every complaint I have about waking up multiple times a night to feed my baby seem so insignificant and petty. I will be holding my little miracle close.

I saw your tweet about this sweet girl and sat and read all the posts while my 7 month old son was napping. I was in tears and kept checking to see her status. I am so glad she is no longer in pain. I held my son a little longer tonight and counted all my blessings.
