Seth Ryan is our sweet precious baby boy. We were so fortunate to hear him cry, watch him and hear him breathe, watch him open his eyes. He will always be our special boy. He was born at 8:14 a.m. , weighing 5 lbs 9 ozs, 17 3/4 in long, lots of dark hair. He passed away around 7 pm and was surrounded by his parents, grandparents and friends. Seth has touched the hearts of so many and will always be in our hearts. We will be having his visitation at the funeral home on Sunday between 2- 4 pm and his funeral will be at 10 am on Monday. Thank you all for your prayers for us.

  3. how wonderful that God blessed you with 10.5 hours! i'm sure it wasn't nearly enough for you as his parents, and i am praying that God will give you a peace that only He can as you grieve the loss of your beautiful, precious baby boy. i was praying that you'd get to experience those things with him & that God would let you have some time with him on this earth before he went Home, and i'm so glad that prayer was answered the way we all hoped, even though i know i was praying for a miracle of complete healing as well. if you so desire, please share more about him when you feel up to it - i'd love to know who he is beyond just a name. in any case, i'm praying for you & your family.

  14. I understand how hard the grieving process can be. You've had so many comments about how very beautiful your Seth is...and I hope you aren't sick of it yet bc I have more.

    Seth really and truly is beautiful little man. I am so very happy you had over 10 hours with him....though no amount of time could prepare you for ultimately losing him. I've said this to others...but it is so true...

    Remember, God calls home the most special little ones to perform his most delicate and most important matters.

    Baby Seth Ryan has his little wings. He is doing GIANT things up there with God!

    God Bless you. My family is praying for you.

I know that he felt surrounded by love during his short time on Earth. Thank you so much for celebrating his life with us.

    God Bless,

    Lauren

  17. A sweet angel, though his time with you was brief, it was as if God Himself brushed you with his hand.

    You and your family will be in my prayers and may the Lord comfort you in the days to come.

  18. My dear, dear girl...how precious to share a glimpse of the beautiful treasure our Good God sent you straight from Heaven. A gift lovingly prepared just for you, just for this time. May you hold in your heart forever the memory of the great gift you gave your little Seth. The gift of life, the gift of love, the willingness to be bruised and broken for his sake, for the brief kisses and hugs that made up his journey here on earth. You will never regret meeting him and will one day join him eternity, looking into his perfect face with perfect love...all enfolded in the loving arms of God.

    The scar you bear upon your body my dear, is a badge of honor...as is the scar upon your heart, at his passing. May you be blessed with peace, comfort, joy and the knowledge that love...true love...is all that little Seth will ever know...

    My prayers for you and yours,

    Kimberly

  24. Thanks amazing. Anthony was 5 pounds and 6.3 ounces. They was close in weight, and born around the same time, Anthony was born 8:21am and passed away 4:14pm. I hope things are okay for you. Just know our angels are in heaven together. :)

  25. The prince has arrived... Perfect, and so is he, I'm sorry you had such a short time together, what a beautiful baby. It breaks my heart to see what a beautiful boy he was and to imagine the emptiness in your home. I am thankful you have your daughter, but I am so sorry for the loss of your son.
