It broke my heart to read this news. I'm not suppose to have favorite patients, but everyone knew Edwin was mine. I would always give him sugar free candies when he would come in. Evelyn, I can't imagine how you must feel. Know that my prayers are with you now and in the coming days. Edwin was a true angel and now he's with the rest of them. Sincerely, Kolleen WickGrand Forks, ND 04/25/2011 11:52 AM
