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

Andrew Aidan's First Angel-Versary

Rest In Peace Our Sweet Boy!
12/05/09 - 03/12/12

An Angel-Versary is a term we discovered some organizations using when they were describing the date of passing into Heaven of a child. We decided to use it as well because we thought it more fitting. Today is Andrew Aidan's 1st Year since being called up to Heaven. This year has been so difficult for so many different reasons but the main reason is that our boy is no longer with us physically. Our pain is an emotional pain that can never be cured. It's a long term disease that will linger with us until our last day for there is no cure for the loss of a child. Our pain is an obviously different pain compared to what our strong Angel Warrior was probably feeling through his battle with cancer, chemo, radiation and various surgeries he endured. Today is more about celebrating his spirit, love, amazing personality and the incredible impression his story had on many people. All we did was love him and he did the same to us. Any normal parent thinks about celebrating birthdays, graduations, weddings for their children but never an Angel-Versary. Sure it would have been nice to celebrate those things with AA but we have to thank God for choosing our boy as one of his Angels. An honor much greater than any here on Earth. At least we know he is absolutely safe and that one day we will make it to him. Andrew Aidan we are very proud of the fight you waged against cancer and are glad that we were able to help you through the difficult times. We are very proud of you and are happy that you are now an Angel of God. Not everyone gets that job! We love you.

Mama, Sophia Andrea, Beemer & Papa
