Sometimes we ask ourselves if there was anything we could have done differently in life. Something that could have prevented Andrew Aidan from embarking on his battle with AT/RT, but as time passes on, we realize that we did everything we could have possibly done for AA. How many times did we ask God to give us the cancer instead. If there was a way that we could have transferred it to our bodies we would have done that in an instant, but that was not possible. Instead we've had to learn one of life's harshest lessons, that the ones you love don't always stay around for long. We learned how to live and love for someone else, while he was here with us and we are sure that we gave our boy every single ounce of love that we had in our systems. We know for a fact that he felt loved. There is no way possible that a boy of his age could have so calmly and courageously stood up to cancer without the confidence, strength and courage that love gives. We are so very glad that God showed us how to love our amazing boy. We are glad that we were able to guide him through the battle, never letting him feel the loneliness of not having love. Now we cry, we smile, we laugh, we long for him everyday. His memory consumes us, for he is us. Some people expect us to brush aside our unfortunate journey because we are expecting AA's sibling, but that will not happen and we will not let it happen. We are not ashamed of him or the experience of AA. We will continue to have all the emotions that parents live through when they loose a child. As time passes, those feelings do not change but grow with you. Today marks ten months since he moved to Heaven and we ask that you do your best to honor AA's memory by helping other brave children like Andrew Aidan. Please go to AA's blog: www.andrewlegar.blogspot.com
On the right hand side you will see a section called " AA's Organizational Supporters" . There you can pick any of the many organizations that helped our family during this past year and make a donation. It's a great cause and so many beautiful children need the help. We love you Andrew Aidan. Please help us make it to where you are baby...
Mama and Papa....
