Le acompaño en su dolor, y comprendo por lo que esta pasando, bien sabemos que la muerte de un ser amado nos deja un gran vació, más aun cuando se es tan pequeño, no hay palabras para describir el dolor de la muerte de un bebe, por muy desagradable que sea la muerte, es algo que sucede día a día. Quedamos con un gran vacío sin comprender porque razón se muere, y si algún día volveremos a abrazar a nuestros seres amados que han muerto. En la Biblia se nos da la siguiente esperanza. Según Revelación 21: 3,4, Juan 5: 28,29, y Hechos 24: 15, en dichos textos está la esperanza de la resurrección, para aprender de estas promesas solo hay que seguir el consejo de Juan 17:3. Con este pensamiento en mente le invito a que visite el siguiente enlace, http/www.JW.org/es/publicaciones/libros/tratado-muertos-volver-a-vivir/ Ahí encontrara un artículo que habla más al respecto. Espero les ayude en su dolor.

Rose and Clara worked for my father (Roger Conway) at Sabine Title in Orange. I grew up knowing both of them. They were outstanding people and I was honored to have known both. I will always remember Rose as a special person in my life. Kathy Conway Valka
