OUR STORY: Baby Zaire

March 8th, 2016 as I sat at American Family Children’s Hospital surrounded by family and friends, we eventually had to say goodbye to Zaire.

As I road on the bed with Zaire to the wings of the surgery center for his organ donation surgery. I cried and I begged him to wake up in that moment.

Our Gallery

We started our Healing Our Hearts gallery to honor the lives of our children who aren’t Earthbound and to remember them as we move forward
