I felt that our sweet boy was probably dead in Haiti, but he is alive. My heart hurts for your loss. Truly, our sponsored children are those that God gave for us to love and cherish. I know you will go forward...I hope all your memories are the ones that make you smile with true joy. Take care and know that you are never alone in your grief. How very sad. and lonely.

I know how deeply your heart was touched by this precious little girl and I grieve with you for her loss. God brought the two of you together for a reason and you made Akouvi's world a better place for the time that you were her sponsor. Thank you for sharing her with us. I know you will see her again and worship our heavenly Father side by side and hand in hand.

I grieve with you, but I also believe that Akouvi is with the Lord, she was too young to see all she saw, the Lord knows best. She will be in our hearts for a long long time. We will pray for her family too.
