Thank you everyone for your support and prayers. Thank you for sharing the pain and wanting to ease our minds but as Mark posted (and removed)...
"It's Sam. not anyone else. it's SMA, not something else. It's 18 months, and not a few years. We were explicitly told to expect death, and not just the "worst".
Of course we have faith, faith that God knows what his plans are for Sam, whether he takes him home early or not. Faith is not just about believing that God can, coz the truth is he always can. Faith is also about trusting that sometimes he won't, if that's His will, and faith is all about that: His will."
As my OB said, "Lord, Your Will. Nothing more, nothing less, nothing else."
I guess Mark must have removed his comment because he thought it sounded offensive of ungreatful. But its true. So I posted it without permission and hopefully he doesn't get mad... And I do hope you understand.

You're right mark, my apologies. My intention was pure, but I've taken for granted the word "faith"... you've known better. Thanks to Sam for that. Of course you have faith... His will be done, nothing more, nothing less.
i've been wanting to comment but i'm at a loss for words...
have strength, have faith.

Like Po, I don't really know what to say, except that we're behind you through all of this. Makakaasa kayo sa '98 para sa anumang tulong na pwede naming maibigay sa inyo.
I'll be praying for your family, that you could make it through these difficult times.
Hang in there Hannah, Mark, and Sam.
Please do.
hey jas, as i mentioned in my original reply to your (and rico's) comments, i knew that you're intentions were pure. That goes without saying.
Thanks everyone. Maybe the support that we're getting is what's helping us accept things now with a more open and faithful heart.
btw, for future reference.
the comments
"i don't know what to say"
and its siblings are statements that are unbelievably comforting. It's just so honest, human and full of empathy:)
