Why do things happen the way they do!

[93hulk]

I dont understand way things happen the way they do. People say things happen for a reason, I say bullshit. This past week a friend of mine went in to check on his 2 month old son to find him blue and not breathing. My buddy who is a cop started CPR on his son untill the medics arrived. He was then Care flighted to Dayton childrens where for 3 days this little guy fought for his life. The doctors told my friend that his son had SID's and was lucky to still be alive. The percentage of children who survive SID's is under 10% because most of them die in there sleep. At first things were looking to be ok and thought he was going to make it and then his kidneys and liver shut down. They then tryed to get his organs working again and discoverd brain damage. But the little guy hung in there. So friday at 9:30 pm the doctors said so could not do anything for the baby and decided to take him off the resperator, at 12:10am he passed. The reason for this post is I'm just plain tore up. If everything happens for a reason then whats the reason? All I know is a good family lost a child and I can not imagine what they are going through. So keep the Bager family in your prayers. I dont think Ive ever prayed so much in my life. I guess Im done. I still dont feel any better.:(

That is so horrible Mark. I'll pray for them.

Just remember how lucky you are To have Tanner and Jessica safe and healthy.

It probably wont make you feel any better right now, but I hung out with Greg Seibert tonight and we watched the video he took from the PINKS show. I cant believe its been almost 6 months. Just watching that video got my heart pounding again. There were some cool shots of us all on there. Man I didnt realize it till then but you guys worked your asses off on that car. Every time Id pull back around, everyone worked together so perfectly. The hood was off, the trunk was open, the fan was on it, and the battery was charging before I ever got out of it! cool stuff.

As an expetant dad, this is HORRIFIC!! Im speechless.:(

Prayers go out to the family...

[Black92LX]

Sorry to hear of your friends loss.
You and them will be in my prayers.

[Black Horse]

Thats is just terrible Mark. There really isn't words that can stop that kind of hurt, we can only pray that time will heal the pain everyone feels. Our thoughts and prayers to all the friends and family.

[02mingryGT]

That is terrible. Makes all the little troubles in life seem insignificant.

[Holly]

If everything happens for a reason then whats the reason?

I've been asking myself that same question for the past year.

My heart goes out to the family. I'll pray for them. That is so sad.

[Katmandu]

Makes all the little troubles in life seem insignificant.Sure does... :rolleyes:

How sad.... :(

[replicobra]

man that sucks.

[bestracing]

My niece passed away from SIDs and I had to take my brother to the sitters house to identify the body. An experience I never wnat to have to go through again. I know how tore up you have to be I've been there.

The way I looked at it, and what helped me get through it, is that maybe her dying then was maybe better off than what might have happen if she lived a little longer. Parents shouldn't have to bury their children especially at a young age. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and their family.

[RIXXX93GT]

Thats a parent worst fear, I get choked up just thinking about the loss of a child. Im not a big "happens for a reason" person either, I just hope they have more friends like you to be there and help prop them up during this terrible time.

[JonS]

Sorry to hear about this, I can't imagine what that would be like.:(

[93cobra]

damn...horrible!!!!

it does make you wonder dosen't it... i say try to understand...& hopefully in the end...it will make sense...

i've wondered the same thing many times when i lost a few close young friends that were good people.... don't make sense when you have horrible people (as in theives, murderers, cheats, liars & downright bad people live until their 99)...and this happens to good people....

[jdubya]

This was Dylan Bager right? I got a company email about his passing. His grandmother works here. Very sad.

Yeah thats him.:(

[MrsAPE]

That's horrible. Parents worst nightmare. I cannot imagine. Prayers said for the family. Reason may not be apparent but I believe there are reasons.

[Timido]

I have friends that went through the same thing. Its make you wonder why things happen the way they do. On a side note I have a very good friend who has a newborn that was very premature who is still hanging on in an incubator. Maybe the good dude up above owes us one and can help her out.

[Black Hole]

Sorry to hear about that. Your friend is in my thoughts. :(

[mustang8998]

Thoughts and prayers.

Stay strong Mark.

[Greg Seibert]

I, Thy Child forever, play around Thy knees at close of day.
Within Thy arms, I now shall creep, and learn Thy wisdom,
while I sleep.
Amen.
:angel:

[untamed]

I am very sorry to hear this. I can not even imagine what they are going through. Very very Sad!:(

[myownr]

my prayers are with the family.I have lost a lot this past month and i don't think i could come close to their pain. a loss of a child's life is hard to understand.my cousin's 15 year old daughter was killed in a car crash 2 years ago and there are days i relate to my children and have a hard time still understanding why.

[mustangkuhn90lx]

sorry to hear about there little boy they are in my prayers

[glassman]

Thoughts & Prayers .... I also can't imagine what they are going through :(

[85_SS_302_Coupe]

Very sorry for the loss...i can't imagine.



As for things happening for a reason, i never bought into that. The truth is, nice guys finish last and bad things happen to good people. That's why you have to cherish every breath you take and make sure the people you love know it.

[Byrd Man]

My prayers go out to the Bager family and loved ones. My wife has worked at Cincinnati Children's Hospital as a Respiratory Therapist for thirteen years. On a weekly bases I listen to these horrific stories that many families go through with their children. As always my heart goes out to them.

When I read this post, it made me so sad for you and your friends. I lost a special little friend last week too. My best childhood friend lost his baby girl (15 months) last Monday as well. The doctors kept telling her parents that what she had was only viral and to give it a few days and it would go away. This is after she was hospitalized once in December and treated for croup last week with numerous spikes in her temp in between. A local hospital told the parents Sunday night to take their baby home and that she would be fine and that she didn't need to be hospitalized. The parents insisted that this sweet girl was too sick to go home. She remained in the hospital Sunday night and the parents took her to ER at Children's Mercy Hospital in KC where they had to wait five hours to be seen. By the time she was tended to, her breathing became labored significantly to the point that they had to intebate (spelling??) her but couldn't because of a blockage which turned out to be internal bleeding. The drs. decided to stop the bleeding surgically but by the time they began, she had lost too much blood and died instantly.

It pisses me off that they didn't even look into what the real problem was and assumed that indeed, it was viral. It makes me sick. So, instead of "everything being fine", my best friend and his wife buried their baby girl on Friday. I am so relieved that she's in a better place but am torn up to see how badly my friends are hurting.

Although I don't know you, I kinda know how you feel.

I will pray for the Bager family. Will you pray for the Wells' family?

I don't know how Scott and his wife would get thru this without prayers, family, and friends.

Thanks for sharing your story. This is what I've learned this week: hug your kids, seek His plan, and treasure each day!

PM if you ever want to vent about this.

[wild87stang]

Lisa' Im truly sorry for you and your friends loss. It is hard to understand but only the man upstairs know why these things happen. We have had a pretty hard time over the past couple weeks. My wife lost her Grandmother Friday So know we have to deal with that. I will keep the you guys and the Wells family in my prayers.

[gottaluvastang2]

Okay, this is even weirder because my hubby's aunt passed away Thursday night. NENAR NENAR............We have now entered the TWILIGHT ZONE>>>>>>>>>

Sounds like we've equally had a tough week. This is a great group to send shouts up to the man upstairs. I'm sure that we'll make it through:angel:

[HARCracing]

our prayers to your friend and you. nothing could be worse than the loss of a child. God Bless that baby and the family.
