So, so, so, so incredibly sorry Brent and Megan. There are no other words that I can say to make it better. I have been and will continue to say lots and lots of prayers for you.
I have not been able to stop thinking about your family. I just had my own little miracle in February (there are only 5 other women in the world with my disease, Cystinosis, who have had successful pregnancies) and my heart breaks for you.
Please know that even though there are many of us out there who do not personally know your family, we are crying with you and sending you love.
Our hearts have been with you the last few days. I can't imagine the sorrow you feel. Cohen came here for such a short time, but made a HUGE impact on many.
My heart is breaking for you. From Kansas we send you lots of sunflower kisses and love. May pain forget you as the angels protect you and your sweet, sweet boy.
Thinking about you and praying for you guys constantly! I know we have never met, but I have gotten to know you the past year or so and care so deeply about you guys.
Thank you for sharing Cohen with us. He will always hold a special place in all our hearts, and touched so so many people in his short time here. Such a special boy.
I wish there was something, anything, I could do to make this better for you two. You are an amazing family and Cohen is lucky to have been blessed with you as parents. He will always be your gaurdian angel. I will continue to pray for you all.
I am so, so sorry for your loss. You are both amazing parents and I will continue to pray for both of you and your family. Cohen touched so many lives during the short time he was here, and I know he will continue to do so.
I just read what happened and my heart breaks for you all! I have been thinking about you all weekend while I was out of town and can not believe what I read this morning! I hope you all are doing as well as you can at this point in your life! I will continue to think of you all through this rough time!
I just found your blog and I too lost a little girl ~ to a heart defect and other things.
I am so very sorry. There are no words and I KNOW that these days are like walking in a dream. There are so many things to do all while you are in shock at the loss of your darling little boy.
I don't know how much support ya'll have (I lived in Houston two years ago ~ hear the accent?) but wanted to let you know there is a lot of amazing and wonderful parents on line that will "get" what you are feeling and going through, because we have been where you are now. Please come visit my site www.carriedthroughgrief.blogspot.com to find other moms and dads if you need us. I have also joined an amazing new online support group called Grieve Out Loud. You can find them at www.grieveoutloud.org.
I can see such amazing love in your family. I know Cohen felt it. And I am in tears thinking about what ya'll must be doing and going through right now. I wish I could help in some way, so I will pray for you.
I haven't been able to stop thinking about or praying for your family since I read the news about your sweet baby. I hope you find comfort in knowing how many people are praying for you all around the world.
I cannot imagine the pain and sadness you are experiencing. You've been so generous with us (your blog friends) by sharing Cohen's journey and for that we are thankful. While I personally miss Megan's funny and some times serious posts...I understand the time you need to heal. I have been praying a lot for your family and I will continue to do so.
Dear Megan and Brent, I am so terribly sorry about losing precious Cohen on earth; you have been on my mind, in my heart and in my prayers. I am a recent follower carrying a heart baby due in September. I pray you find comfort knowing that your baby boy is in the arms of Jesus. You are a very special couple, you can just tell that from your blog. May God bless you both, especially during this very hard time.
my family has been praying for you guys so much!!! there are no words to make this easier but, know that the Lord is with you. praying for a peace that passes all of your understanding!!! cohen has a special place in all of our hearts!!!
When I first read that Cohen was with Jesus, I wanted to scream Noooooooo! Cohen has touched more lives in his short time with us than many do. Peace, love and prayers being sent to your family.
Thank you for sharing Cohen with us. I have been following your blog for awhile through your pregnancy and I admire your strength. I haven't been able to stop thinking about or praying for your family since I read the news about Cohen. Sending lots of preayers your way.
Megan- I found your blog through Kelly's blog and have been keeping up with Cohen's update. I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your precious son. What a strong and amazing little boy he is, praying God will use his life to reach others in mighty mighty ways.
We lost our firstborn son Andrew in July 2008 after he was in the NICU for 10 days. We were so hopeful and prayed so hard when he was in the NICU and really believed God would heal him. It hurt so much when God called him to heaven. But even through our worst nightmare God was there every step of the way carrying us through the valley. He never left.
Praying God will bring forth beauty from the ashes. To give you treasures in the darkness, and to make all things new.
I am SO SO SO sorry! Your sweet little angel has touched my heart and life. I pray that your hearts are surrounded by God through this incredibly difficult time.
I don't even know what to say that will help ease your pain. I have been following your blog and when I saw that you hadn't blogged in a couple of days....I got scared and my scaredness I see was a reality. I am truly sorry. This happened to our friends last year and I can't even imagine the pain you must be going through. Cling to God during this difficult time. He will always love you and Cohen is being rocked in His arms.
y'all are in my thoughts and prayers every moment of the day. i love y'all so much and my heart aches for what you are having to go through. love y'all!
I really have no words to express how sorry I am. Please know Cohen is in a much better place. God Bless and Keep you...I will continue to say lots of and lots of prayers for you and your family.
I've been following your blog since before you were pregnant with Cohen. I should have commented sooner.
I am so sorry for what you're going through. Cohen was a beautiful baby and your love for him over the past months of your pregnancy was a beautiful thing to watch. I cannot imagine what you're going through and I don't know what to say other than I am so sorry.
Praying for your family! I am praying that God will comfort your hearts! I have not been able to stop thinking about your family and I am so sorry you are having to go through this pain! That little boy has touched my heart and so many others!
I am so so so sorry for your loss. I'm continuing to pray for you and your family during this difficult time. Cohen has touched a lot of people in his short life. I pray that God gives you strength to get through this.
Megan and Brent - like so many others, I am so deeply sorry for your loss. Words are inadequate to lessen your pain. Please know you are surrounded with love and prayers from so many across the world.
Megan and Brent, I do not know you personally, but have been following your blog and praying for Baby Cohen for sometime. I am so so so sorry for the loss of your sweet boy. I cannot imagine the pain and grief. I am so happy that you were blessed with getting to spend time with him in this life, and i know that one day you will see him again. I'm praying the peace that passes all understanding for you. I cannot imagine any other way to get through this loss without His love and mercy. Praying for your family, Elizabeth Neely
You will remain in my prayers, thoughts and heart. I am so incredibly sorry for what you have had to endure, but I know this precious gift touched all of our lives in the short time he was here with us on Earth. I know Cohen is an angel in heaven and looking out over all of your family. My heart is shattered for your loss, Megan & Brent, I thought Cohen would make it through this. I am so saddened and just heart broken, no words can describe, so I cannot imagine how you all feel. I will continue to pray.

praying for you both and your whole family. cohen was such a blessed little boy and he will not be forgotten. please let me know if there's anything i can do for you.
Cohen has touched more lives than many older people do. Cohen was so special and god needed him as his angel. Peace, love and prayers are being sent to you and your family.
I have not been able to stop thinking about your family and sweet baby Cohen. He was indeed special and my heart aches for you. I am praying heavily that the Lord comforts you and gives you peace.
Even though we've never "met", my heart goes out to you guys - I can't imagine the pain you are going thru, but I do know that you have countless people praying for you during this time. Nothing we could say could take away the pain you are feeling at this moment, but please know that you are in our prayers.
We are thinking of you Brent, Megan, and family. We are so sorry for your unimaginable pain and will continue to pray for you! Your story and precious Cohen have forever touched our hearts! Love, Aaron, Jessica, Michaela, and Avery Clark
Hoping that with prayer, carefully chosen words and lots of love the pain lessens everyday. Please know how much you and your sweet boy will be in all of our thoughts and prayers- youve got so many of us on your side- fall on us when you need.
I do not know your family personally, but I've been following your blog for a few months now.
I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. I started to cry when I read the news and I cannot imagine the pain that you are going though.
Please know that you will be with Cohen again... he will be waiting in the arms of his Heavenly Father until your family can all be together again in heaven.
I will continue to pray that you and your family can feel peace and comfort at this difficult time.
Praying for your family. I've followed your story since your found out about Cohen diagnosis. I have been praying. I know Cohen made a huge impact on people. He helped them love and helped them see Christ through the words of his parents! I will continue to pray for you guys!
Sending my love & prayers your way! I can't even begin to imagine, my heart breaks tremendously for ya'll. I'm lifting ya'll up in prayer this morning and in the coming days.

omg, I have no words. I'm so terribly sorry and I hope you and your husband and family will find strength to bear with your loss. My heart is aching for you. Sending prayers from Switzerland.
Megan & Brent--there are truly no words to help you through your sorrow. But knowing how many lives little Cohen has touched should give you a little reassurance that his life was more meaningful in his short number of days on earth than some lives of years and years ever are. You are in my thoughts and prayers, and may God's love surround you and your family through this time.
i know you don't know me personally (except through blogging), but words can't even express how much my heart hurts for you and Brent. lots of prayers to above!
I am so sorry Brent and Megan. I cannot stop thinking about you guys and sweet Baby Cohen. I am praying for all of you. I know this is such a hard time, but hopefully there is some comfort in knowing that Baby Cohen touched so many people in a way that can't be forgotten.
I have been a follower of Cohen's precious story, but I've never commented. I hope you will continue to be surrounded with love and prayers in the days to come. I can see that both of you are so loved by so many, just like Cohen always will be! My heart is with yall!
I may not know you in person but as a mother, my heart breaks for you! I wish I could say something, anything to help...just know there are prayers on your behalf coming from UT.
I just found out. I am so so sorry. I wish there was something I could do for you. I have been with you on this journey and prayed for Cohen and grew attached just like the rest of your readers. I can't imagine what you must be going through. I hope you know how much love surrounds you right now. Prayers are being sent your way. You will see Cohen again someday.
Oh Megan - I am so so so sorry to learn that Cohen was called to be with our Lord. I was hoping and praying for that not to be. I will continue to pray for you, your husband, and family. Please take care.
Cohen touched so many of us as we followed your pregnancy through your blog. He will be forever in our hearts, thank you for sharing him with us. Thoughts and prayers to you and Brent. ♥
Nothing I say will help ease the incredible pain and loss you are feeling right now. I hope you both know how much Cohen is loved and he will never be forgotten. We have all come to love him, and you guys, during this pregnancy and I'm just so sorry. We sometimes can't understand why things happen the way they do, and to wonderful people, but I have to trust that God knows best and we will all come to see his reasons someday. I am so sad for you, Brent and your family, but I know that you will always treasure the time you had with Cohen. I am praying for you all, today and everyday.
Oh Megan, my heart is so full for you and Brent, I am crying alongside of you. I will never understand why God calls such precious lives home sooner than others. I am PRAYING for you and your precious family during such an extraordinarily difficult time.
Megan and Brent, What we all wouldn't do to be able to take away just a small bit of the ache and pain you and your family must be feeling. Away from the computer all weekend, I thought of and prayed for you and Cohen daily. Heartbroken when I came home and read the news. What a blessed little boy to be born to such LOVING and AMAZING parents. Such a small guy but graced the world with such a HUGE impact. May you find comfort and peace during this time. Sending up love and prayers for you, Ashley Paige
My heart has been been hurting so much for you guys the past couple of days. I've been praying and praying for you. Thank you for allowing us to "know" Cohen. His life has touched us all. Sending you prayers, love, and peace.
I am thinking of you guys!! Cohen has a healthy heart now!! And his presence on this earth has touched so many lives...I hope I am so lucky to have that kind of impact!
Megan and Brent, I am so sorry. I am a firm believer in "If God brings you to it, he will bring you through it".
There is so much love being left on your blog, "Send Love to Cohen" Facebook page, etc., and I hope our words are a small token of comfort for you all. When my grandfather passed away, my grandma said that what kept her going was the love, support, and care from friends and family. In this time, I can only hope that our love for your family will carry you both.
I have throughly enjoyed reading about your journey. I have been reading since September and felt close to you when I discovered you (Megan), too, have PCOS. We e-mailed some and you were very helpful in answering my questions about it. I can only hope to continue you to read about your journey, but we all understand and respect any decisions you make about continuing to blog or not.
Megan and Brent, in this wonderful life, we are given challenges and obstacles. You may hurt like hell, but there will be joy again one day.
I've been thinking of ya'll all weekend. I've followed silently since before you even announced your pregnancy and know how much you love this child - and I think we all fell in love with the little angel, too.
I can't stop thinking about your family and I am praying for you! I look at my little boy and am thankful for him every day and am reminded to not take anything for granted. Not only do you have the knowledge that others are thinking of you and praying for you, but you are helping people too - like me! Not taking things in our lives for granted and being grateful for all of the blessings we have in our lives. Thanks for sharing your story and lives with so many people and for being such strong and godly people.
I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. I cannot even begin to imagine what you are going through. Please know everyone continues to send lots of love and prayers to your family during this difficult time. Thank you for sharing Baby Cohen with us.
Today is my husband's and my two year wedding aniv. I can't imagine what you are going thru. You three are in my continued prayers, thoughts, and wishes. Much love, Jen
Today is my 2 yr. wedding anniversary. I am thinking about yorur family of three and keeping you in my daily prayers. I cannot imagine to see your pain. I hope JC can fill your heart with love. Jen
I'm so sorry Brent and Meg for your loss and terrible pain that you and the rest of your family are going through. I know there is nothing I can do from here but please know that I am sending a lot of love, hugs and prayers for you and your family. Big big hugs.
I am praying for you in SC. I am more sorry than I can say. You are a beautiful family, inside and out, and I pray God's perfect peace, strength and love will surround you in a very real way right now and in the days ahead. Thank you for sharing sweet little Cohen with all of us, what an honor and privilege for us. God bless you always, Laurie
So sorry for the loss of your precious little boy. My heart is heavy for you both and my prayers are with you. He has touched many lives through your blog and will not be forgotten.
I can't even begin to imagine what you are going through, but please know we are praying for you during this difficult time. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful blessing with us - Cohen truely was an angel :)
Brent and Megan my heart is aching for you and your family. I will continue to pray for strength and faith. I read somewhere recently when you can no longer have faith that those around you can stand in the gap and have faith for you. You have so many people doing that, what a testament to the lives you've touched. I read this on another family's blog who just lost a baby boy.
I'll Lend You A Child- by Edgar Guest
"I'll lend you for a little time a child of mine," He said. For you to love - while he lives And mourn for when he's dead.
It may be six or seven years Or twenty-two or three, But will you, till I call him back, Take care of him for Me?
He'll bring his smiles to gladden you, And should this stay be brief You'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay, Since all from earth return, But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn.
I've looked this world over In search for teachers true, And from the throngs that crowd Life's lanes, I have selected you.
Now will you give him all your love, Nor count the labor vain, Nor hate Me when I come to call to Take him back again?"
I fancied that I heard then say, "Dear Lord, Thy will be done, For all the joy Thy child shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run. We'll shelter him with tenderness, We'll love him while we may, And for the happiness we've known Forever grateful stay.
But should the angels call for him Much sooner than we've planned, We'll brave the bitter grief that comes And try to understand."
One of my dear favorite bloggers -- I found you from my early blogging days and have so loved your journey. You are your husband are an example who many aspire to be. You are loved by lots, and so was that precious boy! xoxo
I am so sorry Megan! My heart is breaking for you and your family. We are sending so much love and so many prayers your way. May God bless you with His peace and comfort. Thank you so much for letting us share Cohen's amazing story and life.
My heart aches for you and your family. I cannot imagine the pain and sorrow you are going through. Cohen's life touched so many people his light will shine forever. My thoughts prayers are with you.
Oh Megan! While I haven't read any official news from you...I can only assume from other comments that Cohen is in Heaven. It makes my heart cry to think about it. I have been here with you through the whole journey and am SO very sorry for your loss. You and Brent seem like great people who would be amazing parents and definitely deserve a child. Bless you and your family.
I don't even know what to say to you guys...thinking about and praying for you so often. I am so very sorry for your loss...I just cannot even come close to imagining...I pray you feel the Lord's arms around you tightly always.
"You hem me in, behind and before, and lay your hand upon me." Psalm 139:5
...I believe He will hold you up and help you to stand.
Cohen's story has been such a blessing to me and to so many others...and I know it will continue to be.
I've been thinking about you all a lot and my heart breaks for you. God bless each of you and just know that he is truly in a better place and is not in any pain. <3 Praying for you from Lakeland, FL.
I am so sorry to hear what happened. I have been following you through your pregnancy and of course praying for you the entire time. Sometimes God just doesn't answer prayers and we can't understand why. My thoughts are with you and your family at this time.
My heart breaks for you. Continuing to send love and prayers your way. Know that there are thousands of people out here praying for your strength and resilience.

I cannot imagine the pain and grief. I am so happy that you were blessed with getting to spend time with him in this life, and i know that one day you will see him again. I'm praying the peace that passes all understanding for you. I cannot imagine any other way to get through this loss without His love and mercy. Praying for your family, Elizabeth Neely
You will remain in my prayers, thoughts and heart. I am so incredibly sorry for what you have had to endure, but I know this precious gift touched all of our lives in the short time he was here with us on Earth. I know Cohen is an angel in heaven and looking out over all of your family. My heart is shattered for your loss, Megan & Brent, I thought Cohen would make it through this. I am so saddened and just heart broken, no words can describe, so I cannot imagine how you all feel. I will continue to pray.
All my love,
Stephanie

Megan & Brent--there are truly no words to help you through your sorrow. But knowing how many lives little Cohen has touched should give you a little reassurance that his life was more meaningful in his short number of days on earth than some lives of years and years ever are. You are in my thoughts and prayers, and may God's love surround you and your family through this time.
No words can describe the sorrow I feel for you and Brent..Lots of love going your way.
Linda

I have been a follower of Cohen's precious story, but I've never commented. I hope you will continue to be surrounded with love and prayers in the days to come. I can see that both of you are so loved by so many, just like Cohen always will be! My heart is with yall!
I may not know you in person but as a mother, my heart breaks for you! I wish I could say something, anything to help...just know there are prayers on your behalf coming from UT.
I just found out. I am so so sorry. I wish there was something I could do for you. I have been with you on this journey and prayed for Cohen and grew attached just like the rest of your readers. I can't imagine what you must be going through. I hope you know how much love surrounds you right now. Prayers are being sent your way. You will see Cohen again someday.

Oh Megan - I am so so so sorry to learn that Cohen was called to be with our Lord. I was hoping and praying for that not to be. I will continue to pray for you, your husband, and family. Please take care.
Cohen touched so many of us as we followed your pregnancy through your blog. He will be forever in our hearts, thank you for sharing him with us. Thoughts and prayers to you and Brent.
♥
Megan and Brent,
Nothing I say will help ease the incredible pain and loss you are feeling right now. I hope you both know how much Cohen is loved and he will never be forgotten. We have all come to love him, and you guys, during this pregnancy and I'm just so sorry. We sometimes can't understand why things happen the way they do, and to wonderful people, but I have to trust that God knows best and we will all come to see his reasons someday. I am so sad for you, Brent and your family, but I know that you will always treasure the time you had with Cohen. I am praying for you all, today and everyday.
Love,
Angela
My deepest sympathies to you and Brent. I will keep you and your loved ones in my prayers.
Oh Megan, my heart is so full for you and Brent, I am crying alongside of you. I will never understand why God calls such precious lives home sooner than others. I am PRAYING for you and your precious family during such an extraordinarily difficult time.
We may not know each other so please trust that a new reader is thinking about you and your family today.
Praying for both of you and your families as you walk this journey...
My thoughts and prayers are with you both. Sweet Cohen will always have a place in my heart.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. There are no words. I am praying for you all. What a sweet angel.
Megan and Brent, What we all wouldn't do to be able to take away just a small bit of the ache and pain you and your family must be feeling. Away from the computer all weekend, I thought of and prayed for you and Cohen daily. Heartbroken when I came home and read the news. What a blessed little boy to be born to such LOVING and AMAZING parents. Such a small guy but graced the world with such a HUGE impact. May you find comfort and peace during this time. Sending up love and prayers for you, Ashley Paige
I am so very sorry for the loss of little Cohen. My heartaches for both of you because I and my husband have felt that pain as well.
May the Lord give you strength and comfort and may you treasure the precious moments you had with Cohen.
My heart has been been hurting so much for you guys the past couple of days. I've been praying and praying for you. Thank you for allowing us to "know" Cohen. His life has touched us all. Sending you prayers, love, and peace.
Your family is in my prayers; may strength and peace be with you all.
This breaks my heart to hear this. I know God will comfort you during this time. I am praying for you.
Praying for you guys!
I am so very sorry for your loss.
Sending up lots of prayers for you. So sorry for your loss.
I am thinking of you guys!! Cohen has a healthy heart now!! And his presence on this earth has touched so many lives...I hope I am so lucky to have that kind of impact!
Megan and Brent,
I am so sorry. I am a firm believer in "If God brings you to it, he will bring you through it".
There is so much love being left on your blog, "Send Love to Cohen" Facebook page, etc., and I hope our words are a small token of comfort for you all. When my grandfather passed away, my grandma said that what kept her going was the love, support, and care from friends and family. In this time, I can only hope that our love for your family will carry you both.
I have throughly enjoyed reading about your journey. I have been reading since September and felt close to you when I discovered you (Megan), too, have PCOS. We e-mailed some and you were very helpful in answering my questions about it. I can only hope to continue you to read about your journey, but we all understand and respect any decisions you make about continuing to blog or not.
Megan and Brent, in this wonderful life, we are given challenges and obstacles. You may hurt like hell, but there will be joy again one day.
Praying for you guys.
I've been thinking of ya'll all weekend. I've followed silently since before you even announced your pregnancy and know how much you love this child - and I think we all fell in love with the little angel, too.
I am constantly praying for and thinking of you all!
I know you had a sad but happy Father's Day. Wishing I could take all your pain and sorrow away.
I can't stop thinking about your family and I am praying for you! I look at my little boy and am thankful for him every day and am reminded to not take anything for granted. Not only do you have the knowledge that others are thinking of you and praying for you, but you are helping people too - like me! Not taking things in our lives for granted and being grateful for all of the blessings we have in our lives. Thanks for sharing your story and lives with so many people and for being such strong and godly people.
I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. I cannot even begin to imagine what you are going through. Please know everyone continues to send lots of love and prayers to your family during this difficult time. Thank you for sharing Baby Cohen with us.

Sending you love and prayers. You are in our hearts <3
Brent and Megan my heart is aching for you and your family. I will continue to pray for strength and faith. I read somewhere recently when you can no longer have faith that those around you can stand in the gap and have faith for you. You have so many people doing that, what a testament to the lives you've touched. I read this on another family's blog who just lost a baby boy.
I'll Lend You A Child- by Edgar Guest
"I'll lend you for a little time a child of mine," He said.
For you to love - while he lives
And mourn for when he's dead.
It may be six or seven years
Or twenty-two or three,
But will you, till I call him back,
Take care of him for Me?
He'll bring his smiles to gladden you,
And should this stay be brief
You'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay,
Since all from earth return,
But there are lessons taught down there
I want this child to learn.
I've looked this world over
In search for teachers true,
And from the throngs that crowd
Life's lanes, I have selected you.
Now will you give him all your love,
Nor count the labor vain,
Nor hate Me when I come to call to
Take him back again?"
I fancied that I heard then say,
"Dear Lord, Thy will be done,
For all the joy Thy child shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness,
We'll love him while we may,
And for the happiness we've known
Forever grateful stay.
But should the angels call for him
Much sooner than we've planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes
And try to understand."
Take as much time as you need, guys... Sending love and support and am not going anywhere...
I am so sorry... lots of prayers and hugs...
One of my dear favorite bloggers -- I found you from my early blogging days and have so loved your journey. You are your husband are an example who many aspire to be. You are loved by lots, and so was that precious boy! xoxo

My heart aches for you and your family. I cannot imagine the pain and sorrow you are going through.

Oh Megan! While I haven't read any official news from you...I can only assume from other comments that Cohen is in Heaven. It makes my heart cry to think about it. I have been here with you through the whole journey and am SO very sorry for your loss. You and Brent seem like great people who would be amazing parents and definitely deserve a child. Bless you and your family.
♥ Danielle
So incredibly sorry for your young family. You are in our thoughts, sending you much love.
I don't even know what to say to you guys...thinking about and praying for you so often. I am so very sorry for your loss...I just cannot even come close to imagining...I pray you feel the Lord's arms around you tightly always.
"You hem me in, behind and before, and lay your hand upon me." Psalm 139:5
...I believe He will hold you up and help you to stand.
Cohen's story has been such a blessing to me and to so many others...and I know it will continue to be.
Much love
I've been thinking about you all a lot and my heart breaks for you. God bless each of you and just know that he is truly in a better place and is not in any pain. <3 Praying for you from Lakeland, FL.
Hadn't commented yet because I couldn't find the words, I'm so very sorry, my heart aches for you both.
Continued prayers for you and your family during this time. Thank you for sharing Cohen's story with us.
I have been thinking and praying for your family. I wish I knew the right words to say, but please know that I am praying for you.
Megan,
I am so sorry to hear what happened. I have been following you through your pregnancy and of course praying for you the entire time. Sometimes God just doesn't answer prayers and we can't understand why. My thoughts are with you and your family at this time.
Megan, Brent and your families are in my prayers. I am very sorry for the loss of your beautiful boy.
My heart breaks for you. Continuing to send love and prayers your way. Know that there are thousands of people out here praying for your strength and resilience.
