My older brother, Levi, got really sick with meningitis and landed himself in hospital in the middle of Feb. and it was quite a scare to our whole family. I haven't been to that hospital since the June afternoon we took Jeydon home for the very last time and it was very awkward being back there, but nice to see the lovely doctors and nurses, they are so dedicated! He stayed inpatient for about a week or so and then was able to go home and is still somewhat recovering. He had the bacterial type which was even more of a cause for concern but they caught it early so he is ok now and that is all that matters. :)
As you can imagine, we are very much still in the midst of missing sweet Jeydon as each day fades into the next. I didn't get to post on the 7th month, or the 8th but they came and went as any angelversary. I will admit my mood fluctuates from time to time but I am generally a happy person, well at least I try to remain positive! There are always moments though, as expected. I will share of one briefly below...
Ava started a new preschool because we were unhappy with her old one, so her first day was sometime in Feb. When she first arrived in her little class looking so cute as always, her teacher introducted her kindly to her new class. They all waved and smiled and giggled and cheered like the happy little people they are. And then the teacher asked her a few questions, favourite colour: pink (of course) favourite food: cookies....(again...of course) and so on. They she asked how many siblings she had. Stop. Ava stood tall as her 3 foot little figure could and stated: I've got a sister, Kyler, a sister, Lex (Alexis' nickname) and she stopped for a moment...stood a littler taller and smiled proudly out to her class (she is usually a tad bit shy and looks toward mum) AAAAND I've got a special, bright angel in Heaven called Jeydon! Everyone's hearts stopped and I know people tried to choke back tears (I was one of them) and failed (again, I was one of them) but everyone also smiled. For Ava. For Jeydon.
We miss you, Jeydon! We Love you! Keep shining brightly!!

Before I go though, I need to ask for a prayer request as this is very important. Her name is Layla Grace Marsh. Her name has been all over the internet recently because well...she is cute, she is two and she has Stage Four Neuroblastoma.
