Little "Miracle Max" passed away last night in the arms of his dear Aunt Holly. I've never seen such devotion to a child as I've seen in Holly. She's been his constant caregiver. She's been there through every surgery, watched him practically everyday all day and every night, coached him into eating solid foods, helped him learn to walk, took him on trips and outings and was literally like a guardian angel to him.
Max woke up suddenly last night and asked Holly to hold him. He laid his head on her shoulder and he quietly passed away. He will be missed.
Be in prayer for sweet Holly. I'm sure a piece of her heart is now irretrievable, locked away within the heart of Heaven with Max. She invested her life into this child and he is now beyond the veil of eternity. God will be her comfort and strength, but the loss will leave a scar.
Last night she felt prompted to read Psalm 23 to Max. She reminded him of God's care and his angels that are ever present. Her arms were a physical reality to Max of the very real and ever present love of God. Quietly and peacefully in the watches of the night, that love came and took him home.

Oh I am so sorry. I pray for peace and comfort for Holly. What a heart wrenching experience. God bless you Holly.
Words can not express...I lift up prayers to our Heavenly Father. He will fill and surround you with love and peace by His Spirit and by those He will send who will love and care and share in your sadness. Remain in Jesus - LW
