Sweet Child, Tragically Ill

Cancer at 7 months and a repeat of it. The child is 3 years old, spoke well and had a charming personality. I'll end this years St. Patrick's day photos with this one. I won't forget meeting the father and child.

A great portrait and my best wishes go to this child to have a victory over the battle of her illness.

A beautiful photo of this little one. Very touching, I'm sure I will be thinking about them all day. I'll bet they would love a print of this fine image.

An illness particularly difficult at that young age. Your image captures a lighter moment and a wonderful, shared spirit and feeling of father and son. A special capture, Neil. V.

Such a sad story to end your gallery on, but poignant nonetheless. It's painful to think about young children's afflictions with cancer. It's a wonderfully candid photo you have captured...and he looks like his Dad down to his very facial expression.

A photo that changed my laughter to tears as I read your story - so sad - it just ain't fair :( V

How absolutely horrible! No child should have to endure this! A wonderful remembrance, Neil...

Such a sad story and all too common, unfortunately. Endearing photo, Neil.
