    My heart goes out to you. I can’t begin to imagine your pain. I am so truly sorry and yet saying these words do not come close to being enough. If you need anything please don’t be afraid to ask. You, and your family will be in my thoughts, and prayers for many months to come. You will not be forgotten.
