Here is a link for anyone who is interested

Henderson Daily News Online

I would never think to solocit monetary gifts from people online. However, my heart is breaking for this family. There is info on that website about a bank account that has been opened for them. So if you feel moved to help please don't hesitate. And please don't be offened by my suggestion.....I know this is not a forum for soliciting.

Thank you to anyone who has taken a moment to say a prayer for this family.
I was going to ask if you could provide a link . . thanks.

Oh my goodness, what a horrible thing to have happened. Thank you for posting this. This website is great for support and encouragement, and there are alway lots of prayers being said for people on here.


I think what the previous posters recommended is good. They do have little video games for younger kids, I know my boys loved them when they were younger, like your little friend. They also have the plug and play games like Spongebob that might be good.

Again, thank you for posting about this and adding the link. I will definitely keep them in my prayers. You are an angel for thinking about them!

OMG, I just read the link that you posted, and realize that I live just to the west of there. I am in Tyler, and my sister and her ex husband used to live in McKinney and Princeton for many years!

Of course we don't hear things like this in Tyler, so again, thank you for passing it along~

Re: gift idea for child in PICU

How awful! This story brought tears to my eyes....then to read that they had lost an infant child last year, well, how many horrible things can one family take? I have no suggestions for gifts, but this family and your community are in my prayers.
