Amanda’s Story

This story touched me in a way that i cannot express in words. tears streamed down my face as i listened to mark shchultz and read amanda’s story. i know god has his reasons for everything, but this seems wrong. and i can’t bear the thought of something like this happening to me. her precious life was too short and i am sorry for your loss. but she is in His hands now, forever warm and safe and free. god bless

Thank you Kim for the courage and support you give from your precious loss. May God continue to bless you and your family till you meet Amanda again. You’ve encouraged us in our journey through Potter’s because of your strength and faith.

You are one courageous child! I am a total stranger, but your story has brought tears to my eyes! I am 22 yrs. old and from Des Moines, IA. You and your family are now in my thoughts and prayers.

I can’t believe that it has been a year since you were born and went to heaven. You are always in our thoughts and hearts. Watch over your baby sister for us.
Love, Auntie Tiff

Your sweet Amanda is absolutely beautiful. I’m truly sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for your loss!!! Your baby girl Amanda is just beautiful!!! You are in my thoughts and prayers!!!

Oh, Amanda is SO beautiful! Can you even imagine just how beautiful she is now, in heaven with Jesus? Even though she is safe and happy, I know it still hurts so much.

Merry Christmas sweet angel! We all think of you often.
Love, Auntie Tiff

As the time passes, Amanda will always be in our minds and close to our hearts. She will never be forgotten.

Kim your daughter is absolutely beautiful! What a beautiful name!! I lost Olivia Claire on May 26, 2004 and know that the pain is still fresh. I admire your courage and strength and faith in God as that is what got us through the whole ordeal. Feel free to email me if you want to talk!!

I’am so sorry to hear about Amanda. I hope you get every support you ever need with this! She will be with us in our prayers.

Amanda’s life has touched so many of us. May she give you angel’s kisses all the days of your life, until you meet with her again. May God Bless you all, Kathy and boys

Your daughter, Amanda, is beautiful! The loss of a child is so hard to deal with. Our son passed away March 28, 2003 from Potter’s Syndrome Type IV. I have made a website in his memory http://www.geocities.com/the_snooks/
God Bless you and your family.

Kim, Tony and Alex, I am so sorry for your loss, but what a gain for heaven! Amanda was precious and I am so glad you had those moments together.
God Bless you all,
Kiara

Amanda is beautiful! You will find that she continues to touch your lives in ways you can’t imagine. God Bless, Sue

I HOPE THAT AS TIME GOES BY THAT AMANDA WILL ALWAYS BE IN YOUR HEARTS .

Thank you so much for sharing pictures of your beautiful baby girl! I am so deeply saddened my your loss, and your family is in my prayers. You are a very strong woman.

Thank you for this website. Seeing how beautiful your daughter is is a blessing. I am 23 weeks pregnant and my son Jonathan Riley has been diagnosed with Potter’s Syndrome. It is comforting to not feel so alone,and to know there was joy with Amanda’s birth. No one should have to lose a child, but I hope Amanda’s memory will be a blessing to you.

Kim,
Amanda was a precious angel sent from God. I know she’s looking down on you right now getting you through this very difficult time.
Many blessing,
Kellie
