Great advice given...
I applaud what you are trying to set up for this child. Many of us have been in your shoes. I completely agree with the others. Mourn your loss and move on. I took in two young men, way out of birth order, and still suffer the trauma they brought to our family. I thought I could "save" them. Now I am struggling to repair the damage to their younger brothers before they turn 18.
Run...don't walk.
