The first and only time we heard him cry was after the Doctor delivered him. It was the most beautiful cry I have ever heard. I can still feel his kisses. I feel his tiny hand grip mine as if he's saying dont let go. I smell him and breath him in. As a mother I am angry that his life couldn't have been different. He is so fragile and ill, yet his spirit is so strong. His life was the most important thing in the world. His short presence gave all of us the courage to go on. Dustin, you are my hero! DUSTIN ROBERT BENNER-ROWE NOVEMBER 3, 2004-NOVEMBER 18, 2004. Until we meet again..... YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE! I would also like to make a memorial for his younger sibling who didn't live past 3 months in utero because of the same genetic kidney disease. My 2nd childs life is also just as important to me, and I miss them both... End of May - August 24th.
