A Broken Heart

I write today to share sad news about a family who lost a child too early.

To all the prayer warriors, please pray for the Ladd & Knight family. I went to high school with Missy Knight (formerly Ladd). Her son passed away last night at the age of 4.
My selfish side was hopeful Samuel would out live us all and beat this disease. But I know he is now free from everything and God is taking care of him now in heaven. Samuel is free from oxygen and restraints. I imagine he is dancing with God eating lots of ice cream & brownies.

To read more about Samuel's short journey through this world, please check out his families blog missyknight.blogspot.com

Samuel was a warrior. He lost his battle with Mitochondrial Disease but now lives in heaven where he is pain free.

This loss reminds me to wake up each morning and praise God for giving me a beautiful, healthy child.
