Gabrielle...

a Lakota prayer:

GrandMother East: From you comes the sun which brings life to us all; I ask that you have the sun shine on my friends here, and bring a new life to them -- a life without the pain and sadness of the world; and to their families, bring your sun for they also need your light for their lives.

GrandFather South: You bring the storms from the south which brings the rains to nourish us and our crops. Be gentle when you fall on my friends; and as the rain touches them, let it wash away the pain and sadness that they carry with them.

GrandMother West: You take the sun from us and cradle it in your arms, then you bring darkness onto us so that we may sleep. When you bring the darkness to my friends here, do so without the nightmares that we have had for so long. Let your stars and moon shine on my friends in a gentle manner; and as they look at the stars, they remember that those stars are the spirits of my friends shining on them and those friends are at peace.

GrandFather North: You are the Warrior, you have ridden alongside my friends here into battle, you have also felt their love and caring when you were wounded or lonely; ride alongside of them, for now they are in this the hardest battle for their life, the battle for inner peace. Now is the time for you to care for them.

GrandFather Sky: May your songs of the winds and clouds sweep the pain and sadness out of my friends' hearts; as they hear those songs, let them know the spirits who are with those songs are at peace.

GrandMother Earth: I have asked all the other GrandFathers and GrandMothers to help my friends rid themselves of the troubles that weigh so heavy on their hearts. This way, the weight they carry will be less; and they will walk more softly on you.

GrandMother Earth, from your womb all spirits have come when they return to you; cradle them gently in your arms and allow them to join their friends in the skies. If they want to hurry themselves to you, tell them you are not ready; and they must wait, for now they can pass on peace to others.

May the Great Spirit watch over you, and may you be at peace.
 
deeply sighing, wiping tears

I am so sorry to hear your news, but believe you will meet again.

Death is life and life is joy and pain. Feel it, live it, breathe it, come through it, live and love again.

Hugs and sweet caresses to you when you need them, goddess knows many others have leant on you, know it is your turn to lean on us.

Hugs and love to Sam/Abs, Fem, big sister and everyone so close. Stay strong.

I'll add a Hopi Prayer to Cloudy's

Do not stand
at my grave and weep.
I am not there,
I do not sleep.

I am a thousand
winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight
on the ripened grain.
I am the gentle
Autumn’s rain.

When you awaken
in the morning hush,
I am the swift,
uplifting rush
of quiet birds
in circled flight.

I am the soft stars
that shine at night.

Do not stand
at my grave and cry;
I am not there,
I did not die.
 
No words can describe the pain, sorrow and sadness everyone involve are going through right now.:(

My thoughts and deepest regrets are with you all :rose:
 
Love and support to Vana and Sam. :rose: We are all so sorry. I truly believe that when we lose someone so little, it is because they were far too good for this world and much needed in the next one. :heart:
 
. . . . . On my way back in from an extended break . . . I couldn't believe my eyes. Dear God. No words are sufficient. So much love and so many hugs to you. :heart: :rose: :heart:
 
Hugs, condolences, and roses. :kiss: :heart: I feel awful about your little one. I don't have even the slightest notion of how bad it must be, but I am here for both of you. We are all here for both of you, Vana and Sam. Fighting the tears as I write this. :rose:
 
I am saddened.

Suffer the little children to come unto me sayeth the Lord.

Gabriella will live in your hearts forever.

Peace.

So Sad to hear of your loss, my thoughts and prayers are with you at this time :rose:

If we were allowed to keep one single memory,
Losing all the rest, what would we choose, what would it be?

Many recollections throng our thoughts, and crowd our mind,
One by one we look at them, the loveliest to find.

Far we do not have to seek, for in our hearts we see,
The dearest, sweetest portrait, in our picture gallery.

The face we knew so recently, still lovely it appears,
Changing not with all the changes, or our falling tears,

This above all others, this one that we would choose,
This precious recollection, that we could not bear to lose.

Much may be forgotten, but for all eternity,
This our hearts will hold and cherish… our baby's memory.​

Oh damn. :(

Just got online for the day and read the news. I am so sorry. :rose: I sent this poem to my cousin when she lost her little one, and I want to pass it on to you.

A precious angel slipped away, no one heard a cry. No time for Mommy and Mommy to sing me lullabies.
My time with you was much too short.I had to leave too soon, But love had joined us as I grew inside my Mommy's womb.
It wove it's way within our hearts, in all our hopes and dreams, Until the very purest love became my tiny wings.
Although I could not stay with you, I knew right from the start, That once you felt your angel's love, you'd keep me in your hearts.
I'm just a little angel but my time was not in vain. As dark clouds that surround you give way unto the sun,
My precious parents you will see that any heart will sing, If only for a moment it is brushed by angel wings.- author unknown
