I saw this thread when it first came up but I've avoided it because stuff like this just tears me up. To be honest, I was afarid of what this thread held inside. I'm normally a gruff, some would say heartless man but when it comes to kids I've got a heart as big as a 747. I've got two kids myself, 10 yr old son and 4 yr old little girl. They and their mother are my life. The thought of having to put one of my little ones in the ground is a nightmare I'd not wish on my worst enemy. Right now I just want to go home, put both my children in my lap and just hold them for a good long while.

Yeah, this story tore me up inside. It's not right for a little boy to have this fate. He should be sitting in his daddy's lap watching Alabama football and just enjoying be a 5 yr old little boy. Sadly, he won't get to do that anymore and his parents now have a hole in their hearts that nothing will ever begin to fill. The only solace I can find is I know this little one is now in the arms of angels and has seen the face of God. He's shed his last tear and no longer will feel any pain, only the unimaginable joy of being in the care of our Lord.

Roll Tide little one.

I'm with you on that Darth. I've been tore for a couple of weeks now. We just had a young man here in the Hayden area go to be with the Lord, Aug. 22, from brain cancer. Only 9 years old and a huge Bama fan. His name was Hunter Alexander. We also have another in the Hayden area, Walker Jolly, battling a tumor in his brain also. He is only 6 yrs old. Please remember the Alexander family and the Walker family in your prayers. I have three children of my own and can't imagine losing any of them.
