    It's been ten years since that lonely day I left you
    In the morning rain, smoking gun in hand
    Ten lonely years but how my heart, it still remembers
    Pray for me, momma, I'm a gypsy now

    Terrible. Not only have the parents lost a child and the grandparents lost a grandchild, but the rest of the family will likely be torn apart. How could the parents not blame the grandmother, even though anyone who has had an active 2-year-old knows they can disappear from sight in a heartbeat, even with the most vigilant parent right there.

Mildred released a statement on the 40th anniversary of the ruling in 2007: 'I am proud that Richard’s and my name is on a court case that can help reinforce the love, the commitment, the fairness, and the family that so many people, Black or white, young or old, gay or straight, seek in life. I support the freedom to marry for all. That’s what Loving, and loving, are all about.'." - Mildred Loving (Loving v. Virginia)

      Not every family is torn apart by this kind of thing. Some come together over it and I pray these people do.

        Do they know anything about what happened yet?

          All indications are that he just managed to get away and out of earshot before anyone knew what happened.

          There will be an autopsy, per the family's request. The local and state authorities have continuously insisted that there is no indication that this is anything but a tragic accident.

            Did he fall or drown? Sorry, I just didn't see how he died. Such a shame.

              Went out on a hike with his grandmother and some other family and disappeared. Apparently just managed to wander away into the woods when no one was looking.

              My best guess is that he ultimately died of exposure to the elements, but the autopsy will say for sure.

                I've been following it. The grandma stopped to help his four year old sister and turned around and he was gone. Heartbreaking, just devastating.
                May we raise children who love the unloved things - the dandelion, the worm, the spiderlings.
                Children who sense the rose needs the thorn and run into rainswept days the same way they turn towards the sun...
                And when they're grown and someone has to speak for those who have no voice,
                may they draw upon that wilder bond, those days of tending tender things and be the one.

                  I read that he was over a mile away from where he was lost. Seems like the tyke kept walking in a straight line away from where he started.

                    All of my kids have been hiking with me, none of them when they were two unless they were physically strapped to my body.

                    This is not a case of tragedy, this is a case of incompetence. There's way way more to the story here but Granma's situation pulls sympathy with jury focus groups.


                    They got inebriated and forgot about the kid.
