| In Loving Memory |








| Losing a child is surely the hardest thing we could ever go though as parents. It is not the order of life as it should be. This page is dedicated to all of the precious angels that have lost the fight to congenital CMV. And while even one child on this page is one too many, this page is sorely incomplete. CMV takes the lives of approximately 400 babies and/or children each year in America alone. We respectfully and lovingly post the stories of these beautiful angels to honor them, pay tribute to them, and to continue to inspire us to fight for babies yet to be born so that they will never have to suffer the consequences of congenital CMV. Rest in peace, sweet angels......forever in our hearts..... |
