Gabrielle...

What can I, who does not personally know any of those involved say?

If I were able I would take away your pain, your pain of loss and the pain of not being able to help. If I could I would take away your sorrow so you could instead celebrate her too short life. Yes I would do these things even though we do not know each other except as words upon a screen.

Alas I can not do these things as much as I wish I could.

Instead I have lit a candle for Baby Gabriel, a candle to light her way to a place free of pain and strife. Instead I have lit a candle for our darling Vana and those who love her as I can not. A candle to light their way from that cold dark place called despair that I know too well.

I have of course notified the Padre of my Hospital, a meeting is to be held in a very short time. May our prayers help. More I unfortunately can not do.

Nirvana, words fail - at least mine do. I wish I could be there, to wrap you in my arms when others are not able, but will instead reach my hand across a continent and an ocean to offer these words from others. I love you. :heart:

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
Love leaves a memory no one can steal.
~ Irish headstone

He who has gone, so we but cherish his memory, abides with us, more potent, nay, more present than the living man.
~ Antoine de Saint Éxupéry

This is the Hour of Lead-
Remembered, if outlived,
As Freezing persons, recollect the Snow-
First- Chill- then Stupor- then the letting go- .

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul.
And sings the tune
Without the words,
and never stops at all.

Emily Dickinson

My prayers and love go to all of you, especially Vana, Gabrielle and Abs. :heart:

Words mean so little but are the only way to convey thoughts in this medium. I am so very sorry. There is no greater loss than this. Thoughts and prayers sent your way. :rose:
 
I'm so sorry. The lifetime Gabrielle shared with this world was far too brief, but she touched many so deeply. She increased the love in the world far out of proportion to her tiny size. :rose:
 
Words can't express the deep sorrow I feel for you all in this time of unimaginable loss. I really wish there was something I could say, but the words escape me. I don't even think there are any. Just know that I am thinking of you all.

:heart:

(((((Fem))))))

a :heart: and a :rose: for you.

You have been a tower of strength for those around you and are obviously wonderful friend to have. I know that in the coming weeks and months you will continue to provide strength to Vana, her daughter, Abs and the rest of the family and I hope that also one day I might be able to call you friend.

You have served a mighty purpose in a very short time, Gabrielle. It is a rare and precious girl that can bring together so many people around a globe of diverse places and situations. You were cherished before you graced us with the beauty of your face, you were cherished every moment your lungs drew breath, and you shall be cherished forever more.

:rose:

Have fun with the angels, sweet baby.

I could not find better words. Lucky says it all Gabrielle, you were cherished by a global community who will never forget you. :rose:
 
It is a reversal of the natural order of the world for which there is no comfort except the love of those who remain with you.

I am very sorry.
