We planned Kyle's funeral for July 8, 2006. It is a very difficult thing to plan a funeral for your child, but the service was absolutely beautiful. The priest made a comment about how long Kyle had lived. He said that it didn't matter if Kyle lived 23 minutes, days, months, or years because 23 minutes is a lifetime. We burried Kyle a plot away from his Aunt Stephanie who also passed away when she was young. I like to think that Stephanie is taking care of him in heaven since she never got to be a mom. She's watching over Kyle for us making sure he knows how loved he is.

Kyle changed the way I look at life. I never would have thought that any of this would have happened to my baby. I know now that God has other special plans for Kyle in heaven. I'm just happy that we could give him the life he was meant to have. He never knew any pain or suffering, only love.
