Dear family, I am so very sorry for your loss of Anna. My heart truly goes out to you as a mommy who knows the pain and has lost a son also.
We lost Alex David on 8-24-05. Our hearts forever aching for him. Time will ease the pain but you will never forget your precious child.
I have found it truly helps to talk with others that have been through this. When you are ready to talk I will be here. Even if it is awhile from now. Please keep my information and when the time comes let me know. I also run a free online email group of others around Indiana that have went through this. Even if you don’t want to join the group I would still love to talk with you.
God Bless,
Angela HOstetler

My heart goes out to you. I lost my son when he was 11 days old. I understand the pain of losing your baby. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
