This site is about a boy, my nephew,14 year old Gabriel Xavier Ferguson.
He was a wonderful son,brother,nephew,grandson and friend.
His life ended after complications of something that was supposed to cure him of Leukemia (AML subtype M0).
We never thought he would die.
We never thought somethiing we were told could cure him would not.He was not supposed to die.He was supposed to grow up,get married and live happily everafter.
I am sure knowing Gabe that he is enjoying his life now but he would have also enjoyed finishing school,learning Japanese and being able to hug his Mom and sister.
Please read about his life and if you know anyone that is considering a cordblood transplant have them weigh the risks to the quality of life or death that it can bring. The last 4 months of Gabe's life were spent very sick in the hospital.
The transplant was a sucess but the aftermath caused to much destruction to his body and he left us on August 3rd 2002.
My journaling carries through the last months of his life, and through the grieving process we have endured. I hope you will take time to read and contact me if you want.
I want to thank Caringbridge for thier beautiful project that helps so many familes get through life good and bad.

Saturday, March 7, 2009 7:16 PM CST Gabriel you come into my thoughts often. I just don't take the time to write here as often as I used to. While I write this I feel you here,I miss you,I miss your Dad,we all do.
Life just gives us many things,death of ones we love and treasure is one of them.
I have always known that death is part of life. But I have come to realize,with the help of your sweet soul,that we all have a time to be here.
Whether it be for a minute or for 100 plus years. None of us know. I just choose to believe that we all have a purpose. Some of us,we make the world better by being kind to one person at a time, some of us create music that soothes the soul,some of us create art that can also soothe the soul. Some of us create films that help us "get it", some of us get old and learn our purpose was to have babies,raise them,and have them find out beauty in our old wise words.
The point is none of us know how long we will be on this earth,with these friends and family. So,we can choose to believe that every meeting is to enlighten our path to our purpose or believe that life sucks and that it is hard.
It is those things Gabriel,you gave me the gift of looking at the light,looking for the good in everyone, and everything. I cannot thank you enough for that. I hope me singing "wonderful world" to you when we had are time together helped you. I love you forever and think of you often
