Awhile back, we came to our wonderful FR family and asked for prayer for little 2 year old Garrett. He had suffered a seizure and convulsions, and the doctors put him in a coma to let the seizures run their course. He came out of it after a couple of weeks, and has been in physical therapy ever since.
His daddy is in the Navy, and they bent over backwards to help this family with their needs.
Garrett and his mommy were flying from Phoenix back home to San Diego today when Garrett stopped breathing. They made an emergency landing in Yuma, but it was too late. Garrett just didn't make it.
The family is converging on Yuma now, and will be making arrangements in the next few days. I'd ask that those of you so inclined pray for Garrett's family, and mine. Many of you know my granddaughter; her mom and Garrett's mom are like sisters, and this has hit her hard.
Ping...
prayer ping.
Thank you HiJinx for letting us know.
Prayers up, HiJinx. God bless you all and give you comfort during this difficult time.
Heartfelt prayers for all who loved this little boy.
My heart goes out to you and your family. I pray for your strength during the days ahead. I and my family will continue to pray for you and yours.
Oh Lord, please help these aching hearts. Please.
I will pray for you HiJinx, Piper and your families.
This is so sad. Prayers offered for the families.
God Bless you all and may Garrett find peace in the arms of the Lord.

I'm so very sorry, how sad.
Prayers and comfort sending.
My prayers for this family. May Our Lord just hold them in his loving arms and give them peace.
Mat 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
Little Garrett is with Christ now in heaven. A precious little cherub has joined the Angelic Children's Choir.
Oh no......this is terrible news. I thought everything was ok.
I'm so sorry. My thoughts & prayers are with your family & Garrett's family. I hardly know what to say.....God's little angel went home.
I try not to question His divine plan, but palty fool that I am, I do NOT understand why He takes these little ones.
