I know that Heidi is the one that always updates this blog, but she is currently in the hospital so it is my turn to tell Cameron's story. I think this is also a way for me to get a few more emotions out. Cameron Michael Armstrong was born at 12:27 today. He was born with a very faint heart beat, and the doctors tried everything to bring him back to life. After about 10 minutes our wonderful doctor, doctor Burton came out to give me the news that Cameron had passed away (Heidi was still in recovery and didn't know). As I began to cry the first thing that came into my head was that he had come and gotten his body but it was time for him to go back and continue helping out on the other side. It was like a nightmare that had become a reality, but in a sense it was a good nightmare. Our baby boy had returned perfect back to our father in heaven. It is difficult for both of us at the moment, we are still wiping away tears every time we think of not being able to bring him home, or watch him grow. It makes me weep to know that I won't get the chance right now to teach him how to throw a ball, or wrestle with his sister. It is hard I won't lie, but I want everyone to know that we are OK. We have the gospel and we know that we will be with Cameron in the near future. I don't know how anyone could get through this without the knowledge of eternal families! We are at peace with the situation, and know that we now have a special guardian angel watching over our family. I want you to especially keep Heidi in your prayers, because I know that it will be even more difficult for her. We want to thank everyone for their prayers and let each of you know that everyone's prayers were answered. Sometimes they just come in ways unexpected. Our prayers were answered by an angel.

I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep you in my prayers!
I am so sorry that this is one of your trails in this life, and like you said I don't know either what we would do with out the gospel in our lives also. You two are so strong and I know Heavenly Father does not give us more than we can handle, so you are definently two of the most strongest people I know! If you need anything I hope you know I would be there to help even if it is to have a shoulder to cry on or going out to get your mind of things when it gets over whelming. I love you Heidi,Shiloh and Hannah!
I don't know what to say other than I am so sorry I can not imagine what you two must be feeling right now. All I can say is that my heart is breaking for the two of you right now. I couldn't believe it today when Dr. Burton told me. You two are some of the best people I know, and I guess God knew that he could trust the two of you with one of his angels. You are right I don't think there would be a way to get through something like this other than to know you will be able to raise Cameron someday, and just think you won't have to ever worry about him getting hurt or sick or feeling pain when that day comes. I love you guys so much and I want you to know that I would do anything for you so please let me know what I can do to help.
My heart is breaking for you. I am so grateful for the knowledge of eternal families- and the opportunity you will have to raise Cameron someday. I'm so glad that you were able to get pictures of your sweet boy. You are in our thoughts and prayers, always. We love you.
We love you guys! You are strong people, and such great examples to us. Cameron was truly an angel and we look forward to meeting him someday. You are in our prayers.

Since I heard of your news yesterday you have been in my thoughts and prayers. I can't begin to imagine the sorrow you are feeling right now. But you are both amazing people and you are both so strong in the gospel, that I know the Lord will continue to watch over your family and bless you. You are right about an angel. Cameron is your angel here on earth. In heaven he will be yours forever. If there is anything I or Heath can do to help us. Please let us know! Our family loves you all so much!
