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

Welcoming Sophia

We wanted to thank our friend Nancy for the beautiful poem she wrote about AA and his 3 week old Sister Sophia Andrea.  Thank you very much Nancy!


To Mom and Dad, From AA with Love
Welcoming Sophia
I was an angel sent to you
To pave the way; you welcomed me.
Sophia is also an angel . . . 
And others will come; soon you'll see.
In my case my visit was too short
But not by God's standards, please know
All the love you showered me with
Gives my wings strength as I glow.
I will be watching Sophia.
Have faith in God's love, He is near.
Rejoice in the blessings and goodness.
Live life never bowing to fear.
There is a plan - without question.
Much we cannot comprehend.
Wisdom is whispered, and when hearts are open
We feel love and joy as they blend.
Now you have welcomed Sophia.
Her life ahead will be so blessed.
I will be by her side always
Through life's ups and downs . . . one request:
If she tells you she sees her angel,
Believe her, please, know it is me.
She is a sensitive spirit,
She chose you both so carefully.
You know I am always with you
Although my face most eyes can't see . . . 
I am revealed by the blessings and joy,
They are gifts to you from me.
~The Universe's Secretary
