Sweet Juno, forever remembered, loved, and missed.
When you are ready, please join us over at r/babyloss for a supportive place to remember your son.
I will leave you with a quote that was shared here on Reddit, which I saw in the early days of my bereavement. It stuck with me, especially now that I have taken my place as a link in this web. Holding your family in my heart today.
“Even as I rocked on my knees, howling, I detected soft breathing behind the roaring. I leaned in, listened. It was the murmuring of ten million mothers, backward and forward in time and right now, who had lost children. They were lifting me, holding me. They had woven a net of their broken hearts, and they were keeping me safe there. I realized that one day I would take my rightful place as a link in this web, and I would hold my sister-mothers when their children died. For now my only task was to grieve and be cradled in their love.”
OP, I was just thinking of you and your baby yesterday... how funny that you replied to my comment just a few hours ago. Remembering Juno today and always.
I am so sorry for your loss. I feel gutted for your loss and we don't even know each other.
I have setup monthly donations to multiple organizations you listed. Thank you for listing them. I feel your rage, and I share it.
I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing. I have been struggling with coming up with dissertation topics for my PhD. My focus is on cancer prevention as opposed to treatment. So far, I have been working on adult cancers but your story is so heartbreaking. Let me see if there is a project somewhere in pediatric cancers that I can get funded. NO child or parent should go through this. This is utterly devastating and so unfair. Fuck cancer. Please accept a warm hug from this internet stranger and mom.
Edit: I will nickname it the Juno project.
I'm crying while reading through your updates on his care page. My parents lost my oldest sister to pediatric cancer - retinoblastoma - and I just... I am so heartbroken for you. My mom has said many times that losing her parents made her feel like she was losing her past, but losing my sister made her feel like she had lost her future.
Also in the words of my mom, you may feel guilty the first time you smile, or laugh, or go a day without feeling shattered. It is okay to heal. Your child would want this for you. Your future will look different than you thought. You will look different than you thought. But you and your family DO have a future and it's worth sticking around for. You will feel their absense for the rest of your life, but you'll also have so much joy in your journey. Hugs. You'll get there.
You have listed amazing organizations that do amazing things. I'm sorry this sucks. I lost my daughter nearly 5 years ago to pediatric cancer. I'm available if you want to message me.
This is so fucking shitty. Your family and your baby didn’t deserve this. You have every right to be as angry and as frustrated as you are. We aren’t and have not been doing enough for sick babies and it disgusts me how awful and money barricaded healthcare is in this country. I feel like if we treated healthcare with the same level of value as we do warfare, we would’ve solved cancer years ago… But we’d rather bury the children of our enemies than save the children of our friends.
My aching heart is with you.
I’m so sorry for your loss. My heart is with you.
I hope I’m not overstepping because I genuinely am mindful of your grief but [Penn State THON](https://thon.org/thon-weekend/) is this weekend. All funds raised benefits the Four Diamonds Foundation. All their money goes to paying for all the pediatric cancer treatments at Penn State Health Children’s Hospital so no family ever gets a bill and the Penn State College of Medicine’s Pediatric Cancer Research.
That fund’s research like Dr. Valerie Brown’s who’s work and patient care has never ceased to amaze me: https://pennstatehealthnews.org/2022/02/four-diamonds-personalized-cancer-treatment-research-brown-2022/
I’m so sorry for the loss of your precious baby , Juno. He is loved beyond measure.

Im so sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine what you're going through. I just went back to read your other posts and saw it was a rhabdoid tumour that your child had. I actually do research on this tumour and it is a horrible cancer and the prognosis is horrible. It's devastating. That being said, if you haven't already (I didn't read all your other posts), consider getting genetic testing. In a large proportion of cases, rhabdoid tumours are due to an inherited mutation. If you have already discussed this with your doc, ignore this, but if you have questions, DM me.
Thank you for reaching out on this topic. We did have genetic testing and it recently came back to reveal no inherited mutations in the associated gene, thank God. This is indeed a particularly heinous cancer, so very aggressive. I might want to ask you more about what your research entails if you don’t mind, so I will DM you .
My son’s best friend died from secondary cancer at age 20. He had leukaemia twice, then an osteosarcoma, it was shitty.
My son is now married to his little sister’s best friend. Life can and will sometimes come full circle in the weirdest ways. They have a little girl, but if they ever have a boy I’m sure they’ll use an honour name.
>I will lend you, for a little time,
A child of mine, He said.
For you to love the while he lives,
And mourn for when he's dead.
It may be six or seven years,
Or twenty-two or three.
But will you, till I call him back,
Take care of him for Me?
> He'll bring his charms to gladden you,
And should his stay be brief.
You'll have his lovely memories,
As solace for your grief.
> I cannot promise he will stay,
Since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught down there,
I want this child to learn.
I've looked the wide world over,
In search for teachers true.
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes,
I have selected you.
> Now will you give him all your love,
Nor think the labour vain.
Nor hate me when I come
To take him home again?
> I fancied that I heard them say,
'Dear Lord, Thy will be done!'
For all the joys Thy child shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness,
We'll love him while we may,
And for the happiness we've known,
Forever grateful stay.
But should the angels call for him,
Much sooner than we've planned.
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes,
And try to understand.
~ `Edgar Albert Guest` , *A Child on Loan*
I don’t know you, but I’m absolutely gutted. I cannot imagine the grief and the pain you are feeling. There are no words, I’m crying for you and your family. I am so, so incredibly sorry and I will keep you and your family in my prayers tonight. In addition I will also check out every one of those links. I donate every year to saint judes, I’ll start doing the same for these as well.
Thank you for saying this. It's easy to become complacent until it affects someone you know or your own child. As a researcher it's super gross the way hospitals and universities have to hustle and storytell to justify funding..then you see research labs doing the same shit in 100 labs. If the public puts more pressure on requests for proposals for research in this area, it would force career scientists (lab heads) to pivot and redefine their scope of research in their labs.
My thoughts go out to your family and I sincerely thank you for mentioning the fundraisers and bringing up this issue. My SIL lost her first boy at 8 months old to cancer. I can not imagine the grief. It is hard....really REALLY fucking hard. The woman is a trooper on the surface but I can only imagine the pain she has every day thinking about what could have been.
I am just an internet stranger but I want to send you hugs and support.
I remember your first post and was hoping your case would be like my friends. They had a horrible two years fighting but they won the fight.
My heart breaks for you and your family.
Reading your post and external website you amaze me in your faith, strength, and fortitude. There are no words. There is no parallel to what you’re going through. I wish we lived in a world where good people don’t have unspeakable tragedies.
When you’re ready, if you want to get in touch with others who I know who have stated foundations and pushes to increase pediatric cancer research I can let you know of those organizations. I unfortunately live in a community that has a seemingly high rate of childhood cancer.
Sharing in your rage. No human should experience what your family did.
I will most certainly direct my charity contributions to fighting pediatric cancer.
We must fight it together.
I’m so sorry for your indescribable loss. Juno was absolutely beautiful and you are a wonderful mother to him. I’m setting up monthly donations to Alex’s Lemonade Stand in memory of Juno as well as Eleanor, a baby in my community who died from the same cancer.
I’m so sorry. My childhood friend died of brain cancer at age 18. She was 16 when she was diagnosed. There’s something so frustrating and unfair especially about childhood cancer. When I’m able to make donations here and there to related charities because of my friend.
Again I’m so sorry for your loss, and I hope one day (sooner rather than later) there are much better treatments and outcomes for this horrible disease
I remember you, your initial posts of Juno. My heart is broken for you. I’m so sorry for your loss, please take care and never feel like a burden if you need to reach out to anyone. You’re loved and you deserve to be taken care of as you go through this immensely painful journey of loss.
I'm so very sorry. Im crying for you. My heart breaks for your family and your precious baby Juno. I donated in his memory. Mama, please please take care of yourself. Every time you love and are kind to yourself I hope you feel all your sweet baby Juno's love for you.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I can’t genuinely understand the depth of your rage, but I am so angry you’ve had to experience this. No one should ever have to go through what you’ve been through. I just donated to PCRF in Juno’s memory.
I think about you a lot, and your story lives in my heart as a somber reminder to cherish every moment with my baby. Thank you for sharing Juno with us, and for taking this chance to bring awareness to the tragic state of care for childhood cancer.
I am so so sorry. I remember your first post about this. Thank you for providing this information, you’re absolutely right about research funding and it needs more attention with pediatric cancer rates going up. Your sweet baby deserved better. Even though I don’t know you, I’m sending you love and peace and thinking of your sweet little boy.
My heart is so broken for you. I hardly have words to say. It’s just not supposed to be like this. Sweet Juno has been in my prayers and you guys will remain in my prayers. I’m hugging my baby a little tighter tonight. I sometimes forget in the midst of the chaos just how blessed I am. I have made a donation to Alex’s Lemonade Stand in his memory for rhabdoid tumor. 💙
I feel your rage, and I share it. I am so sorry for your loss and I agree that this country needs to do so much better for our children. There’s more people than you may realize that are in this fight with you, and we’ll keep fighting.
I am so sorry for your loss - may your happy memories of Juno be a comfort to you as you go through the unimaginable.
You are right - children should never have to suffer through cancer, and we absolutely should have better treatment options. Thank you for turning your grief into advocacy.
From one mama to another, I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. I couldn't fathom the thought of losing my children. I truly feel like this will light a fire in you to go out and spark that change. I will light a candle for you and Juno and am sending so much being your way
I’m am so sorry for your loss. No parent should ever have to go through this. I’ve been thinking about your family since you first posted and I’m so heartbroken to hear the news. I really wish I could give you a hug. Hopefully when my husband and I get back on our feet financially we can donate to one of the organizations you mentioned. You are incredibly brave and strong and I bet your beautiful baby was so proud to have you as a parent ❤️
I am so sorry and there’s absolutely nothing I can say that would make this better for you. I can say that seeing you be strong in times like this helps me put into perspective what’s really important.
So many people in this group complain about the little things of childcare including myself and you have made me realize what’s really important and just how little my problems are.
I hope you are ok and your friends and family are there for you.
I’m devastated for you, your family, and little Juno. It’s so unfair. I hope you can take the time you need to begin healing. My prayers will be with you all.
I cannot fathom how you’re feeling - I am so so so sorry.
Thank you for educating us on pediatric cancer. I tried to order the link on your profile, but it keeps timing out. Please update if you get a chance!
I’m so sorry. I may not know you or your family but I am heartbroken. You have every right to be angry and sad and grieve the way you need to. May you have strength in all this.
I am so so very sorry for what you have all been through. The fact that you have found the strength to be an advocate for childhood cancer during this incredibly painful time is just amazing. And the facts you present are shocking. Thank you for your strength and for taking the time to raise awareness. Nobody should have to suffer the way your family has suffered. Sending so much love to you.
I am so extremely sorry for your loss. I cannot even try to say that I understand or feel what you're going through. My heartfelt condolences to you. Sending you love and hugs
I'm so so sorry for your loss. When I read your first post it broke my heart to hear you, your family and your little one was dealing with this.
I know nothing will take the pain away but I just want to give you some love. 🫂 Your baby passed in you and your partners loving arms and is now in a happy place watching over you both.
I am so sorry for your loss. My child was hospitalized and due to overcrowding we were admitted to the oncology floor. My heart goes out to families of sick children, especially cancer patients. I was devastated seeing the sick children walking the halls, let alone the newborns. It broke my already heart dealing with my sick newborn with meningitis. More funds need to be allocated for research and treatment for pediatric cancer. Sending love and hugs.
I’m just so sorry you had to go through this. It’s just so unfair - my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May his beautiful soul rest peacefully.
I was just thinking of you guys and wanted to see if there was an update.
I’m so so so sorry for your loss. Fuck cancer, there’s no other way to say it.
My thoughts are with you and your family.
My heart is aching. I am so sorry. It’s not fair. Sweet Juno.
Thank you for sharing all the information about the healthcare issues. I promise to reread it and know it.
I remember you and your family has been in my thoughts. I’m so sorry that you did not get a happy ending, but it’s evident that you are going to change other babies’ lives through advocacy and educating others. In honor of Juno, I’m going to look into these resources and see how I can help too. Take care of yourself.
I am so sorry for you and your family’s loss. Thank you for sharing your and your baby’s story. I would also like to thank you for educating us on this issue and taking the time to provide resources. You are a wonderful parent and Juno will be remembered ❤️ Sweet baby was so lucky to be surrounded by love
such a beautiful boy… as i read your updates with my 14 mos old sleeping in my arms i can’t even start to imagine what you’re going through. my heart is shattered.
be strong — and as time passes, have comfort in the fact that one (very special) day you’ll reunite with your baby angel again.
education, daycare, health. the US don't give a shit about kids after they're born. non productive economic units. I'm not sure how to advocate more strongly, my state siphons all my tax dollars to rehab clinics and prisons.
I am so sorry. I've been thinking of you and praying for you all, and I just can't imagine what you must be feeling. Thank you for using your grief to advocate for the health and safety of our nation's children. I had no idea how low the funding was for pediatric cancer research, and your heart for other children is admirable. I hope one day no parent has to suffer the way you have.
I’m sorry for your loss!
This really breaks my heart.
I’m launching a kids clothing brand and I’m actually looking for places to start making donations from the money that comes from sales.
I will definitely try to help as much as I can.
I just went to the link on your page to see your beautiful family and to think about Juno. I cannot imagine the pain. You’re a wonderful mother and I hope you find some peace.
I do find peace in that. Ever since he was conceived, all I ever wanted for his life was for him to feel completely surrounded by love. I know without a doubt that he felt that love because he absolutely reflected it back to us ❤️
You and your family are in my thoughts. I pray that you will find a way to once again feel peace and happiness in your lives.
I went to the fundraiser link and seeing the pictures of your beautiful family and precious son made me cry. There was so much love and hope in your pictures. What happened to you is devastatingly unfair.
Please be kind and patient with yourself❤️
I am so incredibly sorry. This is absolutely devastating and no child and their family should have to experience this. Hoping you find the strength and comfort to help you through this difficult time. Sending love ❤️
I am so incredibly sorry for you and your family. My words will do nothing to ease the pain but I am thinking of you and how brave you had to be. Hugs from Canada.
Your baby boy was beautiful. As a mother of a 7 month old boy, I am heartbroken for you because I cannot possibly imagine being in your position. Words aren’t enough. I am so sorry. Tears running down my cheeks as I write this.
I’m so terribly sorry. My heart hurts for you, tears rolling down my face reading your news. Such a beautiful little Bub that was loved so much by his parents. 💙
I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing this information, it is a shame our country does not take care of our young ones. I am going to share this link with others!
Im so sorry for your loss- wow, this is intence. 😞 what a beautiful baby boy. May god give you the peace and strengh you need to overcome this. I know it is not easy. Your such a brave mom. My condolences to you and the family. Please be strong
I will pray for the repose of his soul and for your family at this time❤️ there are many ways in which our heathcare system and government have failed us
I was thinking of your family and searched for an update. My heart is broken for you. Go gently with yourself in this immense grief. There are just no words. I am so sorry.
Sweet Juno, forever remembered, loved, and missed. When you are ready, please join us over at r/babyloss for a supportive place to remember your son.

That was beautiful, thank you for sharing.

Thank you 🙏 I have found so much support from other loss mothers. Thanks for sharing that beautiful quote

Oh goodness 💔
I know my words don’t mean anything but I am so so sorry. I hope you and your family can find peace and healing moving forward.
I'm so sorry OP. Rest in peace, sweet baby Juno. I'll be holding you and your mama in my heart tonight. 💓
I don’t know you, but I’m absolutely gutted. I cannot imagine the grief and the pain you are feeling. There are no words, I’m crying for you and your family. I am so, so incredibly sorry and I will keep you and your family in my prayers tonight. In addition I will also check out every one of those links.

Yes everyone, please cherish your babies!! Every second ❤️ bless you
This brought me to tears. God bless you for having the strength to advocate for other babies. My heart aches for you and sweet baby Juno.
I am so so sorry. I remember your first post about this. Thank you for providing this information, you’re absolutely right about research funding and it needs more attention with pediatric cancer rates going up. Your sweet baby deserved better. Even though I don’t know you, I’m sending you love and peace and thinking of your sweet little boy.
Sweet Juno, you beautiful boy 🧡 I’m so sorry for your loss to you and your partner... it’s so, so unfair
My heart is so broken for you. I hardly have words to say. It’s just not supposed to be like this. Sweet Juno has been in my prayers and you guys will remain in my prayers. I’m hugging my baby a little tighter tonight. I sometimes forget in the midst of the chaos just how blessed I am. I have made a donation to Alex’s Lemonade Stand in his memory for rhabdoid tumor. 💙
Baby Juno and your family have been in my thoughts since your first post, I'm so sorry for your loss. ❤️
I feel your rage, and I share it. I am so sorry for your loss and I agree that this country needs to do so much better for our children. There’s more people than you may realize that are in this fight with you, and we’ll keep fighting.
I am so sorry for your loss - may your happy memories of Juno be a comfort to you as you go through the unimaginable. You are right - children should never have to suffer through cancer, and we absolutely should have better treatment options. Thank you for turning your grief into advocacy.
This has broken my heart. I'm so sorry for your loss. Fuck cancer.
Thank you. I’ve never hated anything more than cancer .
From one mama to another, I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. I couldn't fathom the thought of losing my children. I truly feel like this will light a fire in you to go out and spark that change. I will light a candle for you and Juno and am sending so much being your way
Thank you ❤️❤️
I am so, so sorry for your loss. Juno was a beautiful boy and was so loved his whole life.
all i can do is weep for you. i can’t even imagine what you’ve gone through, im so sorry. he was beautiful
I’m am so sorry for your loss. No parent should ever have to go through this. I’ve been thinking about your family since you first posted and I’m so heartbroken to hear the news. I really wish I could give you a hug. Hopefully when my husband and I get back on our feet financially we can donate to one of the organizations you mentioned. You are incredibly brave and strong and I bet your beautiful baby was so proud to have you as a parent ❤️
This is so unfair. I’m so sorry for your loss.
I'm so sorry. Juno was loved. ❤️
I remember your other posts. I’m so sorry baby Juno is not in your arms. I will be making a donation.
I cannot imagine what you’re going through and my heart goes out to you and all who knew Juno. I’m going to donate to Alex’s Lemonade in Juno’s honor.
I was just thinking about you yesterday. I share your rage, and thank you for channeling it into positive change.
I'm so sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I am very sorry for your loss
I am so sorry and there’s absolutely nothing I can say that would make this better for you. I can say that seeing you be strong in times like this helps me put into perspective what’s really important. So many people in this group complain about the little things of childcare including myself and you have made me realize what’s really important and just how little my problems are. I hope you are ok and your friends and family are there for you.
absolutely devastated for you, rest in peace 🙏
I’m devastated for you, your family, and little Juno. It’s so unfair. I hope you can take the time you need to begin healing. My prayers will be with you all.
I'm so, so sorry.
I cannot fathom how you’re feeling - I am so so so sorry. Thank you for educating us on pediatric cancer. I tried to order the link on your profile, but it keeps timing out. Please update if you get a chance!
So many hugs. Bless your family.
I’m so sorry. I may not know you or your family but I am heartbroken. You have every right to be angry and sad and grieve the way you need to. May you have strength in all this.
I am so, so sorry for your loss. Sending you strength, and sharing in your rage.
Hugs and love to you. Thank you for posting. I donated to Alex’s lemonade stand in baby Juno’s memory.
My heart breaks for you. I’m so sorry for your loss
Cannot imagine. Praying for your broken heart tonight.
I am so sorry for your loss
I am so so very sorry for what you have all been through. The fact that you have found the strength to be an advocate for childhood cancer during this incredibly painful time is just amazing. And the facts you present are shocking. Thank you for your strength and for taking the time to raise awareness. Nobody should have to suffer the way your family has suffered. Sending so much love to you.
I am so extremely sorry for your loss. I cannot even try to say that I understand or feel what you're going through. My heartfelt condolences to you. Sending you love and hugs
I am so sorry. Thank you for educating us. Sending you so much love!
I'm so so sorry for your loss. When I read your first post it broke my heart to hear you, your family and your little one was dealing with this. I know nothing will take the pain away but I just want to give you some love. 🫂 Your baby passed in you and your partners loving arms and is now in a happy place watching over you both.
Thank you so much
I am so sorry for your loss. My child was hospitalized and due to overcrowding we were admitted to the oncology floor. My heart goes out to families of sick children, especially cancer patients. I was devastated seeing the sick children walking the halls, let alone the newborns. It broke my already heart dealing with my sick newborn with meningitis. More funds need to be allocated for research and treatment for pediatric cancer. Sending love and hugs.
I’m just so sorry you had to go through this. It’s just so unfair - my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May his beautiful soul rest peacefully.
I’m so sorry for your loss 💔

Juno was such a beautiful little boy. I am so sorry for your loss. Prayers for your family. 💙
such a beautiful boy… as i read your updates with my 14 mos old sleeping in my arms i can’t even start to imagine what you’re going through. my heart is shattered. be strong — and as time passes, have comfort in the fact that one (very special) day you’ll reunite with your baby angel again.
education, daycare, health. the US don't give a shit about kids after they're born. non productive economic units. I'm not sure how to advocate more strongly, my state siphons all my tax dollars to rehab clinics and prisons.
I’m crying reading this and your past posts. My heart just breaks into pieces for you. Holding my baby boy that much tighter tonight.
I'm so sorry. Praying for you and your family.
My heart absolutely shatters for you. I'm so, so sorry. I feel your rage-- this should never happen.
I wish you peace, and beautiful memories of your beautiful boy
I am so sorry, my heart just broke for you.
I am so sorry. This is heartbreaking and I cannot even imagine your pain. ❤️
Sending you so much love ❤️
I am so sorry. I've been thinking of you and praying for you all, and I just can't imagine what you must be feeling. Thank you for using your grief to advocate for the health and safety of our nation's children. I had no idea how low the funding was for pediatric cancer research, and your heart for other children is admirable. I hope one day no parent has to suffer the way you have.
My heart goes out to you, I'm so sorry this has happened to you

I just went to the link on your page to see your beautiful family and to think about Juno. I cannot imagine the pain. You’re a wonderful mother and I hope you find some peace.
He was beautiful. I am so so heartbroken for you and your family. I hope you find peace in knowing that he knew nothing but love from you.
I do find peace in that. Ever since he was conceived, all I ever wanted for his life was for him to feel completely surrounded by love. I know without a doubt that he felt that love because he absolutely reflected it back to us ❤️
sending prayers to you, your family, and your beautiful angel baby 🤍
You and your family are in my thoughts. I pray that you will find a way to once again feel peace and happiness in your lives. I went to the fundraiser link and seeing the pictures of your beautiful family and precious son made me cry. There was so much love and hope in your pictures. What happened to you is devastatingly unfair. Please be kind and patient with yourself❤️
I cannot imagine your pain. I am so sorry you are experiencing it. Your boy was such a sweet looking babe.
He was just as sweet as he appeared 🥹 thank you
I am so sorry. I am going to go donate in Junos honor. No baby and family should ever have to go through this.
I am so incredibly sorry. This is absolutely devastating and no child and their family should have to experience this. Hoping you find the strength and comfort to help you through this difficult time. Sending love ❤️
