Devastating news from Alu

He asked if one of us can post this for him here. As you can all understand, he's got a lot on his plate right now after the worst possible thing and wasn't up for coming here and letting you know himself.

Hugo Chen Paradis was born on August 31, 2025. Due to unexpected sudden complications during delivery, he passed away peacefully in Sheryl's arms with Eric by their sides in the early morning of September 1. Sheryl is healthy and recovering. We kindly ask for everyone to respect our privacy as we mourn this heartbreaking loss. While we may not be able to respond to every message, we appreciate your love and support during this devastating time.
@A Stud-Finder we all love you and are here for you in whatever capacity that we can.

Oh Eric, that is devastating. Beyond words. I'm so sorry. Labor and delivery is so fraught with things that can happen, even in today's world and with today's medicine. It's a constant worry when you're expecting. I will keep your family in my thoughts.

Words aren't really going to be able to express how sorry we all are for your loss, but it's immense. No one should have to deal with the loss of a child, least of all a family who fought hard for the beginning in the first place.

We'll be here to help however we can, even if that's just being understanding of any absence you need to take.

I’m so sorry for your loss Eric. I won’t even try to express in words because it won’t do justice to what you’re experiencing. Take your time and be there for your wife. We experienced a miscarriage before my girls were born and as tough as it was for me, it was even tougher for my wife. Look after each other, and when you’re ready to return, we’ll be here for you

I'm sorry, Eric, to you and your wife. As the others have said, there aren't enough words to express sympathy. We're all heartbroken for you, dude. No one should have to go through that.
 
I've been on the verge of tears for you since I read this. So awful. No one deserves this, especially not you.

I know I'm just an Internet friend but I'm in close proximity, if you need anything I can help you out. I don't expect you to reach out, but I don't know what else to do and feel so terribly for you guys. Please take care of yourself and your wife. Take all the time you need. We're all here and thinking of you.

Nothing anyone can say could possibly be sufficient, but to say we are so sorry. We love you, Eric and we are here for you. Anything you need, we're here. Take all the time you need to just heal and be there with your wife, nothing matters more than you two in this moment :hugs
