Just looking back at some baby pictures of Madeline, I didn’t start reading your blog until January 09. Sorry, but…just put her up for adoption? MORON.

As a Southerner I can honestly say that “God bless” you/him/her or even ending in heart or soul is nothing good. I believe the people saying it might have good intentions, but where it falls in the conversation usually leaves the receiver of said blessing feeling like they just got a back handed compliment or something.

I have just come across your blog, via People Magazine. I’m in awe of you. I know you are just a father, doing his job, but you are doing an amazing job. Your daughter will grow up knowing her mother, I’m sure, and you will be the best person in her life for everything you have done for her. You are surrounding her with the things that matter most in life. Stay strong, my thoughts are with you and your family. Maddy is adorable!

All I can do is smile for you, for Madeline, for Liz. Smile, because you are making a beautiful life for Madeline. Regardless of the circumstances, that little girl is more cherished than I’ve ever had the pleasure to witness.

Matt – you may or not remember me but my last name is Ambrose and I went to high school with you and your wife. I just am hearing about this from a friend of yours and wanted to pass on my prayers. You are truly strong and have a beautiful baby. Best of luck in the future. My thoughts are with you and your family.

I can’t believe someone would lecture you on your language. Honestly, I’m assuming that’s the last thing on your mind. If Jill is on here reading I’d tell her to get some compassion.

Matt… I’m yet another stranger to you. But I’ve been reading this blog and it brings tears to my eyes. You are an amazingly strong person. And your daughter is beautiful.

Swear all your want, sometimes those are the most appropriate words.

life can be so unfair. people are ridiculous. my 20 year old brother was murdered by a drunk friend with a knife. over $40 worth of pot. sometimes I wear a dog tag with his picture on it. people laugh and say that from farther away my “boyfriend” looks like george lopez. sometimes they wonder why I glare at them with disdain, sometimes they wonder why I break down and cry, sometimes they know exactly why I wear a picture of George fucking Lopez close to my heart.

my heart breaks for you. the worst part is not what you lost that has passed, but what you’ll never know what should’ve been. I think about that everyday. My memories are wonderful but my heart aches for the 60+ years to come.

your daughter is a miracle and you are her gift.

I tried to post this before, but it didn’t work. So here goes again: A little levity that has nothing to do with anything about grieving, but from reading your blog I have become, how do you say, Robot-aware.
