It is with a broken-heart and extreme sadness that I come to you this morning updating this page. Cade went on to be with Lord last night at 5:25 Central time. He had a fairly good day yesterday as I updated after dialysis, but around 5:00 they went to suction Cade and once again a large amount of fresh blood came up from his lungs. He started to die and then came back. Chris and I prayed and made the toughest decision in the world. Cade's little body was ready to go home to Jesus. He fought so hard. Chris and I had a very hard time letting him go. Once again we put our selfishness aside and let Jesus take Cade home. Cade is with Cole. They are playing as I am typing this. What a joyful celebration they had last night meeting for the very first time. I can see Cole showing Cade around that beautiful place with Jesus right by their side. Oh, what a day it will be when Chris and I are reunited with our precious boys! I can't wait. God gave us two amazing children. We watched both of them suffer more than I ever wanted to see. In the end, they were both healed in Heaven! I can see their perfect little bodies free from Fanconi Anemia and cancer. Chris and I are getting ready to drive home to North Carolina. Thank you for all of your prayers and support. We will continue to pray that God blesses each of you. I will put Cade's funeral arrangements on this update when we get home. As always, God Bless.
