Last Wednesday, our good friends 4 month old son was found dead in his crib at daycare. The baby was a happy healthy little boy who had never been sick. The day care lady said he had been unusually fussy that morning, but went down for his nap as usual. Our friend left work early not feeling well and when she got there to pick him up she was told he was sleeping. She went to pick him up and he was blue. The paramedics rushed him to the hospital, but the there was nothing they could do an autopsy was preformed but results won't be back for upto 8 weeks. My husband and I were devastated when we found out Thursday morning. The baby had just been at our house a couple weeks ago for our son's birthday party.
Right now I am making cookies for the meal after the funeral and I am dreading the rest of the day. It's every parents worst nightmare and this is the closest we have been to someone losing a child. My husband has know the couple since junior high, we have vacationed with them and our kids have all known each other since birth.
Anyone else been around someone who has lost a child? We are at a total loss for words and emotionally drained.
