Prayers please - (infant death ment'd)

A family that my family has known for years and years lost one of their infant grandsons to SIDS this morning. Please pray for the Calvarese/Cox family. Jennifer(the Mom) went in to feed the twins at 6am this morning and found that Andrew has passed away. Both babies had been to the pediatrician in the afternoon on Wednesday and were doing wonderfully.

The babies are approx 2 mos old....

Kristi,
They will be in my prayers. As a mother, that is my worst fear....I can't imagine what that family must be going through. I pray that God will give them strength through this trying time.
