In Memory of Gregory Zion

This was recorded on October 20, 2004. The morning of my son's G-Tube surgery. I'm so blessed to finally be able to share this video footage with those of you who never got the chance to meet him and those of you who have been so compassionate over the years. I can't believe in a couple of weeks it will already have been four years since he went back to heaven. I hope you enjoy getting to know my beautiful angel. Love and peace ~ Rene

Gregory was born with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH), Right-sided. He survived six months. Most CDH babies have a 50/50 chance of survival. 1 in 2500 babies are born with this birth defect. The cause is not yet known. http://www.cdhsupport.org/cdh/overview.php

God Bless Gregory & my grandson Jayden who passed away yesterday from CDH. I'm sure they are playing together in Heaven.

i have Never commented on a video b4; to the loving mom of this baby, please read & understand the bible, I have total faith that God is good & your beutifull baby will be resurrected & u can see him again.If I am a complete imperfect & flawed stranger & I have felt so much compassion and love 4 u & your baby, don't u think that God almighty has way more love for us all, he gave his own son for us so that we can have the chance of eternal life. All bibles state the future resurrection on earth.
