Comments:
Dearest Carol, viewing Matthew's page brings back so many memories of what we have both gone through. When I look at him I see my angel also and I feel the pain that you feel. The tears fall down as I imagine our angels in heaven together- wishing we could hold them once more. I know these feelings will never cease and the memories of our angels will live in us forever. Just look at the good things that have been a result- we are both now closer to God- which is most important and we have each other and many other new friends to share our loss and pain with. Somedays it doesn't seem as though anything good has come from losing my son but on those days I have to pray really hard for God to show me that he is working. I am very honored that my son is buried next to Matthew and that we can share these experiences. I will continue to pray for you and Keith and I hope you are feeling ok. I know you still have those days when you feel really down (I do too!!) but things will continue to get easier and one day before we know it we will be with our angels again. I thank God for you and your friendship. Please keep in touch. Love to you, Karen

I checked out your web page and it was overwhelming. The tears just started flowing non stop. You have done a wonderful job. This is not only a great tribute to Matthew, but to the whole world to see. Life is so very precious and is given to each of s in different amounts by the good Lord. I am so very proud of you for your strength and always your gracious "smile". Your loss has been tragic, but your gain... in time, will hopfully be great. The Lord works in mysterious ways, ways sometimes incomp ehensible by us poor sinners. Find strenght in each other and the Lord with bless you . This is touching many hearts, and is helping to heal them. My sweet and special friends "I love you both". Keeping you in my prayers . always, Greta

Carol, What a wonderful tribute to Matthew's precious life. This web site will help so many people by giving them permission to grieve for their own babies. Even though our situations were somewhat different, the end result was the same in the fact we both (an many others also) have precious children in heaven above. My heart, thoughts, and prayers go out to you, Keith and the rest of your family. Thank you for sharing such a touching story!

Words can not describe the emotions that went through me while seeing Matthew's website. I know that his mommy loves him dearly, and that as beautiful as Matthew was, so is his mommy. God Bless and God's peace be with you.

Beautiful memmorial. I couldn't begin to imagine having the loss my children. It is sad that things happen to ones so small. I think all that visit your site take some pain that you feel with them as have I. All the comments in your book show that the e are a lot of caring people out there so take heart and always remember Matthew and the link he has formed between people over the world.

Dear Carol, Keith and family, I can't even begin to imagine what you all have gone through this past year. But you did something positive with your pain by creating this web site. It is a beautiful tribute to baby Matthew and I know he's very proud of is Mommy and Daddy. Carol, your poem was so touching. I loved all of the pictures, especially the one of you and Keith kissing. It will always remind baby Matthew of what loving parents he has to look forward to meeting someday. In God's Love, Ali

Your site is so very beautiful. I cried so hard when I read the poem about what makes a mommy. I lost my only babies on June 6th & it really touched me. I don't know if I will ever have living babies, but it means the eart to me to be a mommy. Even a ad one. I would love to hear from you, if you would like to e-mail me. I read that you unsubbed from H/B. I am so sorry - I wish you wouldn't leave. Anyway, God bless you and your angel Matthew. LOL, Sarah momma to taylor & ryan (the bunny boys) 6/6/00 (19 wks/2 days)

What a precious tribute to your beautiful son. I cried & smiled at the same time. What a comfort it must be to you to know that Matthew is w/Jesus & you will see him again. The Bible tells us that sadness is only for a season & JOY will come in the morning!!! Jesus will give you joy & peace. Baby Ma thew has that now.......Lots of Love to you & all of Matthew's family.

Dear Matthew, I know the angels in heaven are having a really great time with you. You did not have to journey on this earth and face all the problems we have- you got to go straight to be with Jesus. I know your family misses you very much. I know Jesus will comfort them and fill their hearts and empty hearts with His

A letter to my son. Hi there baby boy, how are you. This is your daddy, you know the one down here. Mommy's not home so I thought that I would try some of her computer therapy. Well this last weekend was Father's Day, now come and gone. Don't think I've urt so much since God called you home. Now I know that I can't compete with the home and love that he has given you. But you know me, I sure would liked to have tried. I would offten times wonder if I would have the love and caring that it takes to raise child. Now I think most of the pain comes from having all this love and caring welling up inside with no where to go. I miss you son!!! I really, really do!!! Now I know the Bible says that we will know one another in Heaven.So you can bet that you will e the first one I intend to see after Christ himself. Now as you look upon me from your seat in Heaven, I hope that you aren't disapointed. I love you my son, with all my heart. LOVE,Daddy
