With her baby doll.



With her baby doll.
Wyatt had a little cold the weekend before he passed away. We took him into the Dr's thinking he might have RSV at the worst. The Dr. admitted him to the hospital and they took a chest x-ray. That's when we found out he had an enlarged heart caused by a virus. There was no indication before this that he had any problems. He was healthy and happy. He needed to be life flighted to Primary Children's Hospital. When they put the breathing tube in, Wyatt went into cardiac arrest. The CPR caused brain damage. He never woke up after that. They were able to stabalize him enough to make it to primary childrens. We had to take him off life support 3 days later. He left this earth peacefully in the arms of his parents. We know we will have our little boy again someday. What a glorious day that will be!

Happy Birthday, Hayley! She is seriously too cute for words! I have to tell you how much I love that you give your kids gifts from Wyatt... I'm going to have to copy that idea. I'm sure those gifts are so precious to them. And, I love the cake you made! You are one amazing woman!!
I stumbled across this blog and really appreciate your approach to grieving. As a father who has lost 2 sons to cancer, I know how important it is to find meaning and perspective. Thank you for assembling all this wisdom in one place.
Josh knew he was going home and tried very hard to teach us how to handle it with grace.
