That's aweful news Don.  I truly was hoping for a miracle.  I can't wait to see my 11 year old daughter after school today and give her a HUGE hug!  Thanks for the update and trying hard for a friend.....

Privately there has been four of our group who have kept up to some greater or lesser degree with the Munchkin's progress here.  Going to catch everyone up to date all at once here.  My apologies for not sending several individual messages.

Unfortunately this topic has a sad postscript this morning.  The little girl passed away about 3:00 this morning.  She'd gone through most of the first month's new treatment satisfactorily.  The last week was difficult though.  From there a decline continued that finally took her this morning.

As is often the case here we played in this thread.  As we do many others.  That's ok.  She was aware of every bit of it and laughed about all of it.  Her daddy was with her this morning.  No one was alone.

Everyone do me one favor please and give someone a hug.  Preferably a kid.  I'll be gone for two or three days starting later today but between now and then I'm spending a few hours with my niece Parker.

Don, so sorry to hear this news, especially at this time of year. 

I will give Terry a hug when he gets home and will give my niece and nephew, ages 4 and 10, hugs next weekend.

Enjoy your time with Parker.

Don,
Sorry to hear this condolences and prayers go out to the family and friends. Thanks so much for the reminder to hug the ones we love. Sometimes the simple things in life are taken for granted we need to remember life is short and precious.

 
Ride Safe,

What very sad news, Don.  So glad that her Dad was there with her though.  Children are just not supposed to go like this, and it just breaks my heart to hear...I don't have any kids near by, so give Parker a hug on my behalf...

Sorry to hear this bad news Don. Christians gain some strength at times like this knowing their loved one is going to a better place. I'll keep you and her parents in my prayers.

[RJ749]

My prayers are with her and her family.

Can't put in words how awful I fell at this loss.  At best we know she's in a better place, just a shame it ends this way.

I hope we were able to help in some small way.

I am so sorry to hear this...I just caught this thread today. My most sincere condolences, as well as my most heartfelt prayers go out to you. I will be hugging my nephew tomorrow...

Don,

Words can not express my heartbreak at hearing this sad news. I'm both saddened to the depths of my heart but thankful that this little angel is out of the pain and discomfort that she's had to endure. It's an inspiration to hear about her laughter and her upbeat attitude in the face of her struggle. I can not comprehend the pain that her dad will have to suffer with not only loosing her but surviving without his little munchkin. I'm grateful that he has such a wonderful friend in you to help him through this. Please give him a huge hug for me and from him to you. I know how close you were with both of them. My heart goes out to you, as well.

May this precious little one know how much she will be missed and that her memory lives on in our hearts.

Ditto, sorry to hear the sad news.

Thanks to everyone.  I'm tidying up a couple of tasks before leaving a little later this afternoon and thought I'd check back in here.  All the messages public, PM, email and phone have been wonderful.  They'll also all be saved for Rob to see later when the time is right.

Parker is sitting at the notebook giggling and on the webkinz.com site playing with the webkinz critters.  She told me a moment ago that she just couldn't sit on my lap to play anymore "because we don't want to get stinky."  So, having been put properly in my place, I'm ready for the rest of the day.

Best wishes to all.  Look ahead to your families and joy of your particular holidays ahead.  Be well and see/read everyone again in just a few days.

So sorry to hear about his loss Don, what a tragic ending to such a young life. My thoughts go out the entire family.

So incredibly sorry to hear this tragic news. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends.

[Twolanerider]

Thank you Binxie.  Got home late last night from the trip back and forth over the weekend.  All the good wished were transmitted to Rob and he's settling in a bit.  Doing "ok" would be an overstatement.  But he's doing as well as can be expected.  After the time they've had there's a bit of absolutely normal relief that goes along with the final passing.  The guilt for feeling that is a tough thing right now.  Everything just needs a little time. 

As for me, I'm playing with Parker this afternoon and all of tomorrow.  On Wednesday or Thursday I'm heading down to the motorsports place to pick up the little 110cc pink camo ATV she's getting for Christmas.  Set it all up, adjust the governor, hang a few accessories on it (yes, it has mods available) and do anything else I can find to do it on Saturday.  We do what we need to to feel better or at least move along.
