Shattered!

Another sleepless night has come my way. Trying to find answers of a tragedy that took place. My nephew came running screaming for help. Little Jeremiah would not wake up. We ran next door to my sister-in-laws house. The little child layed in his mother’s lap. No signs of life visible to the eyes- Checked for a pulse but none could be found. We found a small body frail as it could be. Laid there motionless-CPR began. It was too late the damage had been done. I bowed my head and the tears began to run. A life so innocent had just began to live, Was taken away by the ignorance of men. A niece and her boyfriend that could not agree. Took things out on a child that was so weak. Felony Child Abuse they both face. The rest of the family is grieving from their mistake. We need your prayers to help us get through. Facing a tragedy and I don’t know what else to do. The Duhart/Bragg Family certainly need your prayers. Jeremiah Bragg was only two years old. We mourn the loss.
