I realize it has been several days since we last posted on here - I apologize for that. Lindsay and I made a very heartbreaking decision to say goodbye to Mya earlier tonight. We were taken to a private room with a couch where Mya was unhooked from the ventilator and given to us. We were given the opportunity to give her a warm bath, dress her, and sit together as a family until Mya was ready to take her last breath. She went very peacefully in both of our arms.
We are tenatively planning for visitation on Wednesday, followed by a funeral on Thursday. I will make sure finalized details are posted on here as soon as we have them.
While we are incredibly distraught that we have lost our little girl, at the same time, we are also thankful knowing she is no longer in pain and has become Alyssa's little guardian angel.
Lindsay & Craig, Our prayers are with you and Alyssa and Mya. Wee Mya has touched a lot of hearts and will always be remembered. Love Nancy and family...
ReplyDeleteOur hearts go out to you and your family in such a hard time. You both are very strong people.

Dear Lindsay & Craig,
ReplyDeleteMichele sent along your blog info last night and I read each and every entry. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time. Mya was very blessed to have such strong, loving & dedicated parents guiding her through each and every step of her journey. And Alyssa too is blessed to have such amazing parents and a wonderful, beautiful guardian angel watching over her, each and every day.

We are very sad and sorry to hear about baby Mya. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.
ReplyDeleteWe hurt so badly for you both. It is said that God has a reason for everything. We fail to see it now, but hope it will be revealed to us at some future time. We are so proud of you as a loving couple, and that Alyssa will have such caring parents.
ReplyDeleteWe love you all so much.
Great Nana and Papa Burke
