Sorry to hear about your loss and I'm sure you are hurting right now very much and would like answers on what might have happened. I lost a son at a year and remember what it was like. Please don't use whatever the cause turns out to be as a means to blame yourself and say what you could have done. Best wishes.

thank you Report It

sorry to hear that if any here can help let it be known god bless you on your loss. ?

If your child's condition was very bad, cardiac arrest will eventually happen. I am just wondering why your child died and what condition does he/she have?

I'm sorry for your loss.
