First off I would like to thank you for your time reading our story of a well loved and happy child that left this world well before her time . Aspen was born June 18th 2015 at that moment like every loving parent found a new love in thier life . She was perfect in every way. Short time has passed just before her first birthday we noticed she was getting sick so we rushed her to the hospital not caring about the cost of ambulance bills. The doctors did many tests and could find nothing wrong , just before she was to be released the did one more test a ct scan. what then they found put us on our knees crying , they found a blood clot in her brain This was unthinkable but as parents we are still very happy they found the problem and she is still alive my biggest pain was seeing my daughter lying in the hospital bed looking up at me with those beautiful sad eyes saying to me help and I cannot do nothing but rub her head kiss her forehead and say don't worry daddy is here. With the possibility of brain damage we took her home , loved and played with her ,it didn't affect us if she would develop a mental handicap because our love for her will never change. Later on the doctors told us that she has a blood disorder that made her blood clot easier than normal but with blood thinners and iron supplement the blood clot would slowly dissolve away and it eventually did. Short time has passed and her personality was coming out and wow can I say she had the most amazing interkit personality I've ever witnessed , she was filled with more love than I could ever imagine not once did she stop smiling playing and laughing her 2 older sisters always included her in everything taking her to the park coloring in books doing her hair painting her nails the list goes on and on Aspen loved to go outside she always got so excited to go for car rides or just play in the back yard , cats and dogs where her favorite just screamed in joy to touch one but turned real quick when they licked her face ,she always looked for approval from when she was learning to walk .if she took 2 steps she would turn and look at each person and clap but wouldn't turn her face or stop clapping until you would say yeah and clap too Music was a big part in her life as soon as she heard a song she liked she would do a little dance shake it was hilarious and so cute. SHE was just starting to learn how to jump but her toes never came off the ground ,she was so proud of herself But that all came to a crashing halt when she started throwing up not eating, not sleeping and crying alot , we got scared and off to the hospital she goes again After 3 days of poking prodding x-rays cat scans and ultra sounds they found the problem she had multiple blood clots in her bowels and liver. Her bowels were completely destroyed and her liver was almost gone. The doctors and surgeons at the hospital where we were could not do anything to help her but refer her to more specials in another city in a different province so 2 more ambulance rides and a flight her and her mother arrive More poking and prodding poor little girl 3 hours later as I'm driving to the new hospital with high hopes a call comes in and it's the head specialist doctor this is what he had to say "there is nothing I can do for your daughter (my thoughts are still today is nothing he would do ) and we are flying her back to the original hospital cause she has 2 days to live" at that moment after a few choice words and screaming at the doctor .a parents worst most horrible nightmare has came true our little beautiful innocent loving child that has done nothing but make everyone around her smile and laugh is going to die how in the world is that justified it isn't. Now the hard part that I wish no one in this world would ever have to experience is to sit in a hospital as they give your child pain meds after pain meds and watch your own flesh and blood die. 8 days later Aspen took her last breath. I can still hear our hearts break that will never heal there is a complete empty void left as we try and piece our live together 2 weeks after I buried my child I'm back to work cause the bills are piling up not to mention the ambulance bills, plane, medical and funeral cost. So it's hard for me to ask for help as I'm a proud man and everything I own came from my own 2 hands but now I have to swallow my pride and ask for help.

Thanx Calvin and Chantel, father and mother. Kristina and Skylar , best sisters anyone could have

Today we have lost our little light Feeling anger heart ache but most of all pain of our lost light Hands tied on our knees face burnt of salted tears Numb to our surroundings to all but why We fought we tried to keep the little light shining Slowly our little light became dimmer But today her little light burn out
