Thank you for all your wonderful support - it has been such a blessing!
Alicia is in the numb phase & Grandma Shelly cries on the drop of a hat but we are making it through. Daniel has been trying to be strong for both of us but he is sad too.
We had the meeting with the funeral home today & went out to cemetery to look at the plots still left open close to her cousin Alex and she has narrowed it down to two. We will meet with the staff tomorrow to confirm it.
Barring any unexpected changes we will be having a gravesite service at Mt. Calvary Cemetery on Friday at 3:00 pm. Daniel's cousin will be officiating. Any of the friends & family who can make it are welcome to come. The weather is supposed to be a partly cloudy 65° with only a 10% chance of rain so that is encouraging to hear.
We will not be doing a reception but hope to do a celebration of life in May after Daniel's parents return from California. If Jeremy can get off work for St. Patty's Day he & Alicia will likely make our St. Patty's Day celebration an Irish wake of sorts.
Since the local paper recently changed their policies on obituaries & now charge up the wazoo we may wait to buy a nice one until the celebration in May. For those who want to donate to charity we are requesting you donate to in Jayden's name to either:
CHERUBS (The Association of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Research Awareness & Support)
3650 Rogers Rd #290
Wake Forest, NC 27587http://www.cdhdonations.org/
Your Local Red Cross Chapterhttps://american.redcross.org/site/Donation2?idb=167750579&df_id=1095&1095.donation=form1
Also if you can, babies like Jayden & adults depend on blood & blood products for life's emergencies. If you not medically restricted from donating or don't have a religious restriction feel free to donate in his name through your local home town Red Cross. HELP SAVE A LIFE!
