Errol Milner Clifford 2006-2009

Errol Milner Clifford was born with a significant heart defect and a cognitive disability that prevented him from walking or talking. As we grieved the child we had anticipated, Errol’s full-bodied smile and irrepressible laugh turned our sorrow into joy, and taught us that many of the best things in life are unexpected. Inspired by Errol’s delightful spirit, friends, family, and neighbors rallied to support our family’s significant emotional, physical, and financial needs, through countless acts of selfless generosity. When Errol’s courageous heart finally failed him on December 23, 2009 we were left numb with grief. In these dark hours we listen hopefully for the echoes of Errol’s brilliant laugh. This blog is the story (starting from present and working back to Errol's birth) of the life and times of the amazing Errol Clifford.

Two Ounces!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Errol just drank two ounces of apple juice and fell fast asleep!!! This is a huge step forward. If we can get a few more ounces in him we can avoid the NG (Not Good) tube (which would be a big step backwards). Let's hear it for the Little Man! More (hopefully positive) updates (of gallons of gobbled juice) will follow...
