"We were propelled, my little family and I, into a dense fog, driven by grief's unbearable pain. The faith we held so dear hung loosely across us like a worn life jacket that we hoped might somehow save us. Each had the task of traversing Tragedy's waters. Every man for himself, yet bonded by our loss"
Life changed forever for Barbara and Paul Ireland and their family following a freak accident that claimed their little daughter's life. Three-year-old Laura died tragically and, in the process, left the Irelands devastated.
