I feel better this week. Still sad about it, but not depressed like I was.
When you follow a story and look at lots of pictures, video clips, etc. You almost feel you know the person. He was a very cute and sweet little boy with an adorable personality. His family loved him very much. He was so close to making it through. I really wanted him to make it. It looks as though a viral infection of some kind took hold while his immune system was gone and trying to rebuild from the transplant.
It's tragic and heartbreaking. The Doctors and nurses who work with sick children like this must have the hearts of Saints to deal with the pain and loss so closely. Maybe it's balanced out by the victories and the children saved.
