Averi went home to be with Jesus....

I have no words.... I cannot say them without crying... My heart is just broken...
My sweet Averi Hope went home to be with Jesus at about 8:30pm last night....

Her little heart just gave out... it worked so hard for a whole month and just couldn't work anymore... She let us know she was soooo tired... Her body just wasnt responding to any medicine they were giving her anymore... We got to be there before she passed and I am thankful I was there. God blessed me by letting me say goodbye before she went home with him. We are hoping to have a service for her this Saturday. I will post the details once they have been finalized. Thank you to everyone for all of the prayers that are being said and have been said. Your comments, prayers, love, and support have meant so much to us and have truly been a blessing.

  1. I am so sorry! I have been following your story as another CDH mom and I am so sad by this news! What a beautiful fighter! I will remember Averi always... she has touched my life and I am a stranger so I know she has touched so many! And I will pray for peace for your family.

  2. I am a friend of Tricia McDaris and the Lord led me to your blog from hers. Precious baby Averi and your family was placed upon my heart from the Lord. I would pray for you frequently throughout the day, and when I couldn't sleep at night. I am just so sorry for your broken heart. My mom heart hurts for you all right now. I am thankful that you got to be with Averi and I know that she felt your love. I also know that she is perfect in Heaven right now and am thankful for the hope and assurance that we have in Christ, that we will see her again. I will continue to lift you up as you are healing. Much love to you all as family in Christ.

The Lord brought me to your story and I prayed for him to let her stay with you. He has special plans for your angel. I pray for your strenght and comfort.
    Sweet Averi, you will forever be missed. You fought a hard fight little one, rest now.

  9. I have been following your story for awhile. I too am the mother of a daughter gone too soon to CDH. I am so sorry for your loss. It is truly unimaginable. I wish you peace in the days and months to come. It is a hard journey. The CDH parent online world is a huge support. We are here if you want us.
