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.

Banana-Rama
Errol just ate half a banana!!!!!!!!! Oh my god! One small bite for little man. One big bite for mankind!
Jonathan - This is actually a big and important step. People are smart when they are ailing - sometimes it's just too much to eat! And when it's time again, when they're ready, they eat. Errol has his own wisdom, and it is a wonderful and fantastic thing!! That kid is one smart cookie! Hurray for Errol!!

If nobody's gonna eat the other half, I've got dibs.
Way to go, kiddo.
He just ate the other half. Sorry, Mike.
Dude, the Obama picture that says "Progress" should be replaced with a photo of Errol.
