Sad but sweet

I saw this on Oprah today. Maybe you have already seen it, maybe not. It brought me to tears, because it is very real. I was amazed at this couple's love for their child, even while his future was unknown.

The parents were on Oprah after this video was shown, and the mom said something that really touched me. I don't remember what question was asked, but I'm assuming it was how she stayed so strong during her son's short life. She said, "I decided from the beginning that I would be sad later. Right now, I'm going to enjoy every minute with my son."

I loved that.

Grab your Kleenexes, hug your children tightly, and watch.
