No Tears Left To Cry - A Mother's Heartbreak

Words cannot express how heartbroken I am for a mother of an almost 2 year old little boy that I have never met. The thing that squeezes my heart more than anything is that the sadness, pain and fear I feel in my heart...the heart of a stranger is about 1/1,000,000,000 of what the mother is feeling tonight and that kind of pain must be unbearable and excruciating. I posted few sentences on her guestbook and I read over the other posts and they were all contained wonderful words of comfort but I can imagine that mother sitting in her rocking chair rocking that precious child who is basically in a coma at this point and nothing anyone can say or do could possibly take that hurt away. She is such a strong and wonderful mother based on all of her posts but now she seems like she is totally broken, completely hollow and according to her she has no tears left to cry. One thing that really made me get a tiny glimpse of what she is feeling is when she said she hopes to always remember what his cheek feels like against hers. Such a simple hope yet such an important and special one.
