Amy and Scott, Amanda is the most beautiful little girl and you two have been given God's gift of love. Amy, your story is so touching and deeply moving.

When you say Amanda was beautiful as a newborn you are so right...I see your mom in her pretty face.

I wish the best for you all, you two, both sets of wonderful grandparents, great grandparents and Jake.

With our strongest wishes for you, Phyllis and Norm P.S. Can you post a picture of Amanda and Jake?

Scott and Amy, good to hear from you. I love Amanda's web page! Amy, I almost cried at "Amanda's Story." Scott, you and Amanda could win a photo contest with that picture of her in your arms. Your description of Amanda's care will be so helpful to new families, those who are in need of comfort and information. Tell "little pea" that we miss her; it's a poignantly good thing to miss you guys, since I spend an average of 40 hrs/week of my life @ Children's. Keep up the great work! I'll call u soon.

Keep up your messages so we will be able to share your good days/nights and your bad days/nights. Believe me, we think of you, Steve and Amanda much more than you could possible dream.

Hi. We are Sue Harris's mother and father. You met her at Childrens Hospital in Birmingham. Great Web Page. Keep up the good work, and also, keep in good spirits. Remember, no matter how bleak things may seem, there is always someone, somewhere, that has it worse. As the saying goes, "I felt sorry for my self for having no shoes, till I met a man with no feet." As Sue and Randy can attest to, it really isn't the end of the world. We feel so sorry for you and your family, and will keep you in our prayers. ===== Russ & Betty

Hi Amy, Scott, Jake and Amanda, Hope all is well! What a great site! I was honored and blessed to have been the nurse of a sweet, beautiful, and precious angel named Taylor. It is almost 10 months since she passed away and there isnt a day that goes by that I dont think of her. Even though we were not related by blood, Taylor and I had a bond that will never be broken. I miss her deeply. She was my shining light for over two years. Thank you for sharing your story and your family. Take care and God Bless! Taylor's best bud, Peg Bailey

I'm not surprised at how beautiful Amanda is, but I do have to say, she is breathtakingly beautiful. Your words and your strength inspire me. I am so sad that you have had to weather such pain and sorrow, and I'm devastated to find out about Amanda's prognosis. I'm also happy to know you have had such a precious daughter to love, and after reading your story, I'm happy to hear that your family bond has strengthened. Please know you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

We were both distressed to hear about Amanda, and hope that you may experience some miracle!! They happen.

Amanda is absolutely beautiful! It seems these children who have to deal with so much so soon have this inner beauty that just shines through. It's really an amazing phenomenon.

Your site for your little girl is beautiful. I am sorry I don't know what a SMA baby is, but nonetheless, your baby is gorgeous! I, too, am bereaving my 2 babies who died (I had 3 have 1), my son of SIDS 5 years ago when he was almost 8 months old, and my daughter 3 years ago this coming October of anencephaly. If you ever need a shoulder to cry on from someone who's "been there," I am here for you. I am so sorry to see you've lost your little baby, but I am here if you should ever need a friend.
