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

Celebrate the Life Not The Change

Eleven years yesterday, the world was reminded of just how sinister humans can be and it is with deep compassion that we extend our prayers to those that have lost loved ones as a result of 9/11. For our family and friends, today marks 6 months in which our wonderful Angel Warrior Andrew Aidan was promoted to Heaven to help in making the world a better place. While on this planet,he did everything he could to bring love and happiness to many many people while bringing unity and understanding to the lives of many. Although we will always be saddened by him not being in this realm with us, we are totally satisfied in knowing that the universe permits him to communicate with us in so many different ways. Although we are not permitted to see him yet, he sure does make his presence known and that sure has helped us. I would like to share a way in which we celebrated his life during his first year with us. We were soo happy to have him around that I told Michelle in January 2010, a month after his birth. "Let's celebrate his first month of life. Lets get a cake and light a candle and take pictures and just celebrate the happiness he brings us". Little did I know that we went on to do this every month for his first year. It was great, we have so many pictures , memories and really did enjoy the moments as well. I remember one time when he took a small cup of ice cream from Baskin-Robbins and just devoured it. It was so awesome to see his face full of ice cream and to see him enjoying every drop of it. Plus we have pictures! I urge you to find a way, something unique that will celebrate the lives of those that you love dearly. Its okay to get someone flowers, or take them out for lunch or just write a simple "I love you" note. Remember, as we get older we will lose more loved ones but we will never lose their love, happiness or the wonderful memories that they made in our lives. Have a splendid and wonderful day. Life is beautiful no matter what happens.
Michelle, AA, Beemer & Roi
