ben

this woman's son, ben, died in may (she's holding a picture of him)

in thanks to the local children's hospital that took care of him, she is holding a tag sale of his toys and other donations to raise money for it.

it's really sad hearing her story, but it was also wonderful as well spending time with her this afternoon. it was touching how open she was about the passing of her son - also at right one of her sons holds a blanket that ben used to sleep with.
