I think I've mentioned before about a family in our Ds group that has 2 biological children with Ds. The mom is the carrier, but the children both have 2 different types of Ds. Well Andrew, the oldest, has been in the hospital for 20 days with pneumonia. They had to transport him to Children's a few weeks ago and he got worse. They found 2 blood clots in his lungs this past Tuesday. The whole ordeal reminded me of what Mya had gone through. Well last night, in his sleep, he died. His body just couldn't take it anymore. His grandmother emailed me this morning. She doesn't know how his sister Megan will go on. He was her best friend. Please keep Jennifer, Brian and Megan in your prayers. We have done nothing but cry all morning and I made the mistake of calling Peyton and Sophie while they were on the bus to let them know, and now we are going to go pick them up from school cause their hearts can't take it. This is a parent's worst nightmare.

Saying some prayers for their family. Pnemonia scares me alot since Sam seems to get it fairly easily. I'm so sorry for their family.
