Lewann, I just read your article after a friend shared it~ I am so incredibly moved by your story - thank you for sharing Leo with the world, and with me. When we choose to love what we know we will lose (though losing is actually, always, the risk of loving), it is a beautiful thing. Grief is so hard, yet so worth the love that comes before it and endures after it. Blessings as you reflect on your precious Leo ~~

As a fellow journalist, I can certainly appreciate the thoughts that go into whether you should or shouldn’t chronicle a special season in your life knowing it will take away from being in the moment. You have done an incredible job sharing this story. I sought you out on social media to tell you how your story has impacted me. I cried and am different for knowing your story. No doubt your story, now that it’s out, will catapult you and Ryan into a world of inspiring other moms and dads challenged with special needs children. May God bless you richly as you continue through life.

WOW, Lewann, this is so amazing, and you are such a gifted author and have brought a voice, a special one to Leo's life with you and Ryan. Much love, my friend. I will check out Barnes and Noble for a copy or perhaps my local grocery store first.
