I've had a pleasant day, and I just know this will ruin it.

I love the internet.

They have already raised 50k+ to help with burial and medical costs

I watched that this morning and cried my eyes out. His son died just a few short days later.

I have a 4 yr old and a 6 month old. Moments like this remind me that life, no matter what, is unfair and all we can do is dance with it. Bad days mean alot less after watching this, and I've had a very bad day. Thanks for posting.

lotta man tears in this thread. yes it's sad, but that's life, and the father has a great perspective on it.
btw, blackbird is a better song choice than helter skelter.

My wife is 8 weeks pregnant with our first. I'm already nervous. Stories like these take my nervousness up a few notches.

Lord God Almighty... that is simply too much tragedy and pain in what should be the one of God's most precious gifts to mankind. How cruel indeed. Prayers to the Husband/FAther and families. I cant remember a more heartbreaking story.

frick death. I'm gonna be going through this in the next few days with my uncle now that his terminal cancer is rapidly speeding up and it's going to be any day now. My aunt is taking it really hard and cousins aren't much better. I just feel so helpless.
