To the Jacksons

I was heartbroken this past week as I heard about the tragic accident that befell some friends of Cristian and mine. Molly and Vic Jackson's daughter Lucy choked on a piece of apple and had to be life flighted to Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake. I don't know all the details, but she went into a coma then passed away on Thursday. She would have been 2 years old on June 11.

I cannot imagine the pain and sadness of losing a child and I salute you, Molly and Vic, for your strength and testimonies. I cried as I read your blog and saw the hope you have in a resurrection; you know this is not the end and you will see Lucy again.

Our prayers are ever with you both.

Nicole, I too cried. I have a child the same age as Lucy and I felt the heartache of a mother losing her baby. They will be in our paryers for a long time.

Oh, that is just so awful! Chloe is the same age and I too can only fathom the pain they are in. I will be thinking and praying for them.

this is so sad. I went to their blog after reading your post, and left a comment for them. I can't even begin to imagine the heartache. She is such a beautiful little girl. So heartbreaking!

It is a small small world, b/c one of my best friends from College, Janeese Summers is great friends with them. It is a tragedy! We are praying for them too. What an aching loss!
