Heartbreaking. Because we are, alas, just human, we forget to be grateful for what we have. So thank you for reminding us.

Your beautiful story made me weep, and reminded me, at this fraught time of the year, what really matters: family, kindness, love. Thank you, Sylvie.

this is a formidable and extraordinary family who helped make Justin a Sunshine in spite of and helped him die in peace with his legacy of wishes intact. I salute the courage of everyone in this family and the health providers who understood the best way for a child in a terminal stage to end his life.to . it is heart rending to read but shows the beauty of people who know what is the right thing to do under very difficult circumstances.
