Olive suffered from severe meningitis on her last day on earth. She died peacefully this evening around 6:30 pm. She was snuggled close to her earthly daddy as she took her last breath. She was so beautiful without her tubes.
We have come home to a house prepared for Olive, complete with a pack and play, car seat, and stroller.
As we released her, Rusty led us in a prayer to Jesus asking him to take good care of her. We know he will. No more suffering from a broken shunt, and hydrocephalus. But now we carry the pain of bonding and letting go.

Carol and Norm, I struggle to find words to say, but know that my heart is breaking for you and the pain you are feeling. May God comfort you and wrap His arms around you.
Love and prayers
We know that Olive is safely in Jesus' arms...but the pain is here and we cover you with our prayers! May you find peace & comfort in knowing that you have a community & internet family praying for your family! Your struggle the past 4 months has touched many many lives!
OH Carol, I thought of that basement that you were preparing for your kids and granddaughter. So very sorry you have that to come home to. I'm sure it just added to the pain of not being able to use the things you got ready for Olive. My heart is braking for your family. We love you guys!!
