Andrew Aidan, Our Fighting Warrior!

Andrew Aidan and his dog Beemer have been the pride and joy of their parents, Michelle & Roi ever since they were born. AA loved to take walks outside, play with his best friend Beemer and his Thomas the Tank Engine set of toys along with any other plane, helicopter, car, truck toy he can get his hand on. For those that have met him, they saw the soul of a mature adult in the body of a sweet, loving boy with a beautiful smile. He bravely battled an aggressive, inoperable, rare form of brain tumor called Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumor or AT/RT that spread to his spine as well. This type of cancer effects less than 50 children a year in this country. He has been an inspiration to us and we are sure he will be a vessel of motivation to those in similar situations. Thank you God for protecting our boy!

Thank You!
Andrew Aidan (R.I.P.) , Michelle (Mother), Roi (Dad) & Beemer

AA Remembered At Pace University

Yesterday, May 14, the 2nd D.N.P graduating class from Pace University was honored for all of their hard work in obtaining their Doctorate degrees in a pre-graduation ceremony which is held every year for the graduation class of a particular degree and major. It is a very intimate and enjoyable event that is well deserved. Well, just last year we were enjoying this same event in honor of Michelle & and her classmates in being the 1st D.N.P Doctorate graduating class from Pace. It was a very memorable event for our family and Michelle. In a year much has changed, most notably the absence of our brave and beautiful boy from our physical lives. As a result of AA's brave battle in defeating cancer and ascending to Heaven, the administration at Pace University's School of Nursing honored our family by reserving a seat at this year's pre-commencement event and will continue to do so every year from here on, in honor of their "D.N.P Angel" as AA was called by Dr. Singleton.
We were and are, very moved by this beautiful memorial and are truly appreciative of such an honor. The administration, faculty, staff and students at Pace University have been so very supportive, from pregnancy to our most recent life event with AA's passing to Heaven. We truly appreciate it and will always have you all near to our hearts.
Michelle & Roi
