Moments after I heard the news about Layla Grace on twitter yesterday, the tears came. But the words didn’t. Like Cheryl from Special Sauce in the House, I knew Shanna, Layla’s Mom, not just from her posts on her blog, but from the small, somewhat tight knit forum community at Mommies With Style. We went through pregnancies together on those boards. We discussed our kids diets, teachers, bullies, friends, neighbors and more. It’s a very supportive community. A broader community now mourns with the Marsh family. They’ve touched so many with Layla’s story, which is now her legacy. A legacy of hope that one day diseases like the Neuroblastoma that took her, will have a cure.

My heart goes out to this brave family.
