I just saw the most amazing & moving photo exhibit
www.soulumination.org

They photograph terminally ill children and document their all-too-short lives. My church (St. Mark's Episcopal Cathedral in Seattle) is currently hosting the exhibit this month. Check out her blog on the site as well.

I can't imagine losing a child, but the strength of these kids and their families fills me with such awe and respect.

2. How profoundly moving!
I looked at every image, and cried. I was so touched by the love and compassion that seems to ooze out of ever photo. The mother with the tear in her eye as she held her baby facing her, the young man with the tear in his eye, .... all so very sad.

thank you for sharing this amazing site.

The name is so fitting. Soulumination.
