Mourn with those who mourn

I've struggled this past few years or so with the concept of suffering that I encounter every time I go to work as a nurse in a pediatric hospital. Suffering seems so unfair and without satisfactory answers though I continue to ponder and search for understanding. I've met many children and their families that will never leave my heart. Though I am legally and, more importantly,  morally bound by privacy laws, I will never break that obligation. Social media has made it possible to share experiences that may be similar to those I might encounter.

As I've read this blog, Mitchell's Journey, I've been touched. I share this to illustrate the grace, strength and love that comes when faced with the end of a most precious life.
