Kaycey Anne Gonzalez

Welcome to Kaycey's Web Page. It has been provided to keep people updated about Kaycey.

Kaycey was born with several Congenital Heart Defects and was diagnosed with Primary Pulmonary Hypertension.

She was placed on the National Organ Donor List on July 19, 2000 for a heart & double/lung transplant. We relocated to St. Louis in April 2001.
Kaycey was transplanted on September 10, 2003.

In November 2003, she became ill with RSV. The virus destroyed her new lungs and brought with it the onset of Bronchiolitis Obliterans. Kaycey is now in need of new lungs and was placed back on the donor list on July 21, 2004. Kaycey was removed from the transplant list in July 2005, due to the discovery of Coronary Artery Disease. She ended her fight with disease and suffering on Saturday, October 15, 2005, at 5:50 a.m. I know she is above us with all the angels, probably teaching them how to love hard and laugh alot! Please continue to pray for our strength and courage!

I can't believe that it has been 2 years since I last updated this page! I look at the picture on the cover and it is hard to imagine that my baby has been gone for over 3 years.

She would be 20 this year in September!

Adriana is 10 now and doing well! She excels in school and is now testing in reading at an 8th grade level. She is in the fourth grade and they have to order her books from the Middle School. I am really proud of her!

She is continuing to dance and competes with her team. She is doing her first solo this year!

I will try to get pictures on here after the competition on April 5th.

I hope that all of you are well and I appreciate the continued emails of support! This is not the life I would have chosen, but it was the one chosen for me! Therefore, I try to embrace each change, hardship, and blessing!

Thanks again!

Erin

P.S. Please pray for Jorge to find work. He has been unemployed since the summer of 08!
