i’ve been surfing on the net related to my life story.. then i found this heartbreaking story of yours.. i know the feeling because i had a 4year old son who left us and went back to our CREATOR more than two years ago… GOD how i miss my son everyday of my life. His name is Gabrielle.. Like Coleman, he love GOD so much. He had taught us so many things in life.. and touched everyone’s lives. I have lots of things to share about my son… a story that i hope could give everyone an inspiration, encouragement and hope to life… GOD LOVES US SO MUCH… LET US KEEP OUR FAITH STRONGER EACH DAY WHERE WE COULD ONLY GET OUR STRENGTH TO MOVE ON ALONG OUR JOURNEY IN LIFE… IN GOD’S TIME WE WILL ALL BE TOGETHER AGAIN WHERE THERE IS NO MORE PAIN, NO MORE TEARS, NO MORE HARDSHIPS, NO MORE HEARTACHES ONLY HAPPINESS AND ETERNAL LIFE IN HIS KINGDOM… GOD BLESS US ALL…

Coleman was a great example of Child-like Faith. What a treasue, what a gift he was. To be the parents of such a child, what a honor.

I read Peggy’s update last night, and the tears just started flowing, and they didn’t stop for a good 20-25 minutes, I was just bawling. It was really tough to get myself to stop crying. I will DEFINITELY miss him terribly. The tears are about to fall, again, reading your entry. I wish that C-Man was back here with us. Anyways, I just had to comment. This is definitely one little boy that I hold dear to my heart.

P.S. Not to be rude or anything, but I just thought that I would let you know that C-Man is 5. I just thought i would inform you. Again, this was not meant to be rude, I was just compelled to tell you.

What an amazing story Coleman was able to share during his short time on earth. May God bless and comfort his family in this difficult time.

God bless this family for raising their children in Him. This child’s testimony will live on and many will be affected. I pray that God’s peace and comfort will surround this family during this very difficult time.

What an amazing story and testimony. If more of us had that kind of child-like faith, the world would be a different place for sure. Thanks for sharing.

We recently lost a loved one to Cancer and one of the things we held dear to was that he was no longer in pain. Our prayers WERE answered, just not with the results we had hoped for, but now George is at rest and peace, just like Coleman.
During George’s funeral his pastor and friend talked about how George lived his life faster than the rest, and he finished his job on earth a little earlier.
Coleman has left a legacy and hope for all, what a great witness he was.

Heartbreaking, Susan, but there’s comfort in knowing he no longer has to endure the pokes and meds. Poor, sweet child. His family is in my prayers.

Susan,

thanks for posting about Coleman. I am one of the people who have been following Coleman’s journey closely and have become “attached” to this family that I’ve never even met. It’s strange to feel so close to someone who you don’t even know, but it’s his mom, and the graceful and detailed way she writes EVERY post – good and bad – that amazes and inspires me. She’s taught me to look at my kids in a whole different way – to realize that you never know what can happen and that the “little things” don’t matter as much as loving your children as hard as you can every day.

I have twin girls. Their bond is SO strong, I find them sleeping in the same bed and holding hands in the middle of the night (even though I’ve put them to bed separately.) They cry when the other one does, they one who is not in “time out” will sit in “time out” while her sister does her time – just to keep her company. I’ve seen them just watching TV stroking each others faces or backs – just things that brothers and sisters who are NOT twins don’t “typically” do. I can’t take one twin to the store without the other one crying the whole time at the door “where’s my sister” and when she gets back, she hugs her like she’s been gone for months.

I truly can’t imagine what his twin brother is going through. I think only “twins” can understand that bond, and I feel so badly for him.

This is an AMAZING family and I’m so lucky to have come across their CarePage, even in the circumstances, as they have truly changed my life.

Thanks for posting, and thanks for choosing my nomination for the Blogs can change lives. I hope that the PSP gave him some joy for the short time while he was going through his last treatments. I love your website and will continue to spread the word about the great things you all do.

Regards,

Rachel

What a dear boy. We can all learn lessons from him. I will never understand why children have to suffer.

I am just in awe at the words this mother has written. I was in her shoes 6 years ago and I wish I could have been as she is.

The family will be in my prayers.
