Andrew’s Story

Site created on October 16, 2018

Andrew and Ashley Goette are expecting their first baby boy.  Ashley’s due date is October 22, 2018, although she was scheduled to be induced on Wednesday evening, October 17.  On Tuesday morning, Ashley awoke to Andrew in cardiac arrest and without a pulse.  Andrew was without oxygen for an unknown amount of time and is currently in the ICU at United Hospital working to  overcome any effects of that.  Baby Goette’s induction has been cancelled and the family has come together to provide strength and support to Andrew while he undergoes care and works to get through this.  The family has also come together to care for Ashley and Baby so we can keep them as stress-free as possible and inside and growing until Andrew wakes up.

Today Andrew celebrates his 1 year rebirthday.  

365 days ago, his heartbeat, affected by WPW...

stopped...

and restarted again, eventually with a strong, steady, and most importantly, normally rhythm-ed beat.

Life really is beautiful. 💙

that’s a fact
but maybe everything that dies
someday comes back.”
