Wow, I’m so sorry! I wish there was more to say that could really do anything good. I guess just know how many people out there feel for u, and ur loss. It would literally be almost every person In the world, if they knew of ur situation, so u can actually believe u have the whole worlds condolences, whether THEY know it or not! And the very few that wouldn’t care...well, u wouldn’t want anything from them, anyway! Also know that ur daughter is not forgotten! It may not be very many at any given moment, but pretty much anyone who has ever heard of ur situation, remembers it/her from time to time, so ur daughter(and these 2 kids, and EVERYone who’s been lost)is being remembered every single day, by total strangers, not just u&ur family and her friends. every hour of every day and night, SOMEone is probably thinking about her! even if it’s brief and in passing, she’s still being remembered by SO many people!
