Everyone, I am sorry to say that I have bad news. Jack lost his fight late last evening and is with God now.

I want to thank all of you for your thoughts and prayers of support. We were all hoping that this would end differently. It is not understandable how these things happen to anyone, let alone a baby. He was a fighter...born with a heart defect and underwent his first of 3 scheduled operations to repair it at one week old. Grew like a weed after that and you would not have known he had any health issues at all. In late October he went in for the 2nd scheduled surgery. Multiple complications arose and he did not come home until Thanksgiving Day. He spent 7 days at home with his parents then , from what we understand, suffered a heart attack and then the seizure that left him in the coma. He was pronounced brain dead earlier last night and then left us in the early hours.

Again, Jack's parents were very appreciative of the prayers for him and our family from all of you. I cannot thank you enough for taking the time to offer them.

Take care.
