Sending peace and strength to all of you at this most difficult time. Todd and Family, We are so sorry for your loss. She was a beautiful and vivacious person and so many people loved her. Heaven is rejoicing in her return home.
Our prayers are with you and your precious children during this difficult time. Sydney was a star in every sense of the word. She radiated light and love. Even though she was younger than me, I always looked up to Sydney and admired her natural ease and the way she gave of her friendship and love so freely.
If everyone had that gift, the world would be a perfect place. As we embark on this next decade, the significance of this time is especially poignant for KinderMourn families, who have experienced incredible loss yet also have made great strides towards healing.
As a grief parent, I also personally appreciate how, during our seemingly lowest points, this is often when blessings reveal themselves in the most unexpected ways.
This is the first in a series of stories we will feature to spotlight the gifts that can come from loss. Todd and Sydney Gaylord and Shannon and Scott Railing were a lot like most 30 somethings, settling into the rhythm that comes with early adulthood; happily married with kids, enjoying personal and professional success.
Todd and his wife, Sydney, were living in Charlotte with two girls, Vail and Haven, and a boy, Boone. Sydney Gaylord was adored by friends and family for her magnetic, vivacious personality. Whether it was new neighbors across the street, or visitors at their church, Todd fondly recalls how Sydney simply had a natural gift for making sure newcomers were not strangers for long. She was also fearless. Which is why when Sydney was diagnosed with a brain tumor in December , it seemed unfathomable it could happen to someone so full of life.
Within two years the cancer became more aggressive, requiring frequent stays in the ICU. For some months she rebounded, giving Sydney cherished time with family, including outings to her favorite Vietnamese restaurant. It also gave the Gaylords the opportunity to discuss the sensitive topic of her funeral. On Thursday, August 25, Todd and Sydney met with their pastor. Four days later, on August 29, , Sydney passed away at the age of Meanwhile, miles away in Jacksonville Beach, the Railings were focusing on expanding their family.
Like the Gaylords, the Railings were a family of faith, and Scott confessed to Shannon that ever since their 4-year-old son Carson was born, he had prayed for him to have a brother close in age. As more time passed without a sibling for Carson, the Railings knew it was time to seek help through a fertility clinic. The best thing to do is to get up every morning and breathe, I do cause I know Justin would want me to take care of our son.
Take all the help and support people give you, and stick with God. It's hard, I still expect Justin to come home, the first year is the toughest and about survival and the second year is finding a new normal and experiencing joy again, I'm going into the 2nd year and starting to find a new normal, you will too Todd.
