Oh, I am sobbing like a baby, just like a baby. It just goes to show you that ALL life is valuable and that you should never, ever discount what each life can do to touch the hearts of others. I will never forget that little duck. Thank you so much for sharing...

My mom sobbed too- I had to give her lots of kisses to comfort her. We will never forget that little duck either-- they called the little cart he was on in the video, his "duck truck." I love that.
