:'(

Ryley passed away at 3:15 this morning.  Shannon posted on FB last night that they'd given him a "big boy bed" so that they could cuddle, so I like to think that he went out happy in his parents arms.

Rest in peace little man, we love you.

  • OMG Raynes, I am so sorry.  Big hugs.

     I seriously am crying at my desk right now. He was a true fighter. Please let us know if there is anything we can do.

    Rest in peace Ryley.  We may not have ever met you IRL, but you will never be forgotten.

  • Oh, Raynes.  This is just so heartbreaking.  I hope that Tim and Shannon and their family and everyone who has been touched by Ryley's story can find peace at this time... just so sad.

  • Do the girls know yet? How are they doing? Do they understand what's going on?

    I have no idea.  Derek got a BBM from Tim this morning letting us know and then called him.  

    I doubt the girls understand, I mean, they're not even 3 yet.  They probably see that mommy and daddy are sad, and they might wonder where brother is, but I just don't see them grasping the full situation.  

    We're likely going out to see them this afternoon.

  • I'm so sorry. I'm crying on the bus right now. The whole... This just sucks huge balls. I hate that anyone has to go through this. I'm thinking of everyone.
  • I texted you earlier, but the message is the same. I am so terribly sorry and sad about the passing of Ryley. There aren't words to bring comfort. I just know that Ryley is in a place where he's not sick and not hurting. Though I wish that place was in his home with his family.

    To put it in perspective my 3yr old niece still asks me where my babies are even though her parents explained it to her in a number of ways. I'm sure it's different when it's immediate family.
