In loving memory of Nicholas...

Remember the nightmare that evolved in July that culminated on July 27, 2008?
Childangel lost her beloved son when he lost his battle with hep c.
He fought the good fight, and did so with dignity and humor all the way to the end.  
He was hospitalized because his lungs were compromised and they had to change his nasal cannula to a face mask to help him breathe. When they put  the oxygen mask over his face he looked at Elaine and said  "Luke Sywalker, I am your father!"
(gotta love his sense of humor:)
Please pay tribute to Nick and his mom, this forum supported her through his illness, and  treatments, and losing him hurt us all....
Bug

PS: Hi to all the wonderful people I've met through this forum! Love you all!

None of us will ever forget the brave fight of Nick and Elaine.  Nobody could have done more to see their child through such a horrible ordeal and the impression it made will never go away. I think it has helped a lot of us be better parents and appreciate our children even more. Even my children know who Nicholas is, they will never forget either.

There are alot more folks out here who will always carry you both in our hearts than you will ever imagine.

Love Deb

Elaine,

I know that you will always cherish the time that you had with your son.  You were both such hero's in my book as he left this life.  I pray that you will be blessed (as Marcia said).   Susan400
