Thank you to everyone who has offered support in thoughts, prayers or donations. We are so blessed to have YOU in our lives. Yes you … the one who took time out of their busy day to read this blog. Thank you!
At this time we do not have any fundraisers planned.
We are praying for you all and have been since we heard about Owen on Sunday at church. This is the first we knew of your Blog, or we would have responded sooner. God be with you today as he is with you every day. Know that he is holding Owen close to his heart as he is within yours. I still pray for a miracle for OWEN and I will continue until told he is gone. May the strength of the Angels hold you up and see you both through these moments that try the heart into unknown territory. Allow yourself to feel whatever feelings and thoughts you have and know that it’s okay, you are a wonderful loving Mom and you are a Blessing to all those around you. Gods will be done and we are all here for you and your family. Scott, Rita, Caleb, Mary and Isaac Ebbott HUGS and LOVE to you all. God Bless you!
Your Owen is a beautiful child. You have a beautiful family. So many people around the world are heartbroken over your tragedy. There’s no words. But you are blessed with other surviving children and the memory of your little guy. I have 3 year old triplets. They are my only children. All the triplet moms that I know are in awe of your strength. You are a pillar of strength to other moms with similar stories. When they say “I don’t know how you do it” we triplet moms say “I don’t have a choice. I just do.” You just have to get up every day and face your reality. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Thank God for the time that you had with that sweet child. Orange Owen.
I am praying for you and your family to have the strength you need. I am so desperately sorry…
Melissa- you and your family went to St. Mark’s where my family is still attending. My older two children told me about your blog. I have been and won’t stop praying for you and your family. You have a long road ahead of you, and prayer is what will get you through. God never gives anyone loads they can’t handle. All I know is that you and your family must have an incredible faith:) Our hearts ache for you and your family. God Bless you all, Liz Carleton
Owen dances with Jesus, he knows of your sorrow. He awaits you at the gates when you have fulfilled your life. God bless you, may He keep you in peace and comfort you in your loss. Just believe that in the arms of Jesus he is…love to you, and peace be with you.
I am praying for you, your family and your sweet baby. I cant even begin to fathom the pain you are going through, but yet your strength is unbelievable. I have lived in fear of losing my little girl, who had a heart condition that I was told to prepare for the worst. Thankfully, she made it through her surgery. To have a baby be taken out of the blue, with no time to prepare… no words can bring the comfort you need. I will be praying for comfort, for strength and that you have peace in the coming days and months. I have twin boys and am more then willing to give you my double stroller. I will be in your area at the end of June, visiting my in laws.
I had triplets and lost my triplet daughter 4 days after delivering. I would like to send you an email of resources that has helped me and has continued to help me through my own loss of a triplet. I am sorry for your loss.
I am very sorry for your loss, and am grateful
in the fact that you are able to celebrate Owen’s life and the impact he has made on others. It’s a hard thing to balance. I lost my son almost 3 years ago. My wife and I have some resources we’d like to offer you that we found useful. And ways that helped us cope. We’re in Milwaukee as well if you’d ever like to talk. If not, I truly understand but my wife and I have a gift for you that someone gave us and we have loved it very much.
God bless.

Mel, you should consider publishing your blog…I can’t help but think that you could help others in similar circumstances. I’ve been following your blog, hoping and praying for you and your family. You are so strong and my heart has been breaking for you through all of this. Your words and thoughts are truly an inspiration; you must be a wonderful mother!
Love this picture!!
