<div>Hey everyone,  


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>I am devastated to write these words and share with you the story of Dylan’s untimely passing and the events leading up.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Wednesday, March 5  Dylan and Tabatha returned home from a doctor visit for their eight day old baby girl, Adaline. Dylan took the trash out and when he came back in the house he started to cough and couldn’t catch his breath. In a matter of minutes Dylan went into cardiac arrest. Tabatha performed CPR and was able to resuscitate him but Dylan began to have violent seizures. EMT’s arrived and took over care. Dylan coded on the way to the ER and again in the ER both times he was resuscitated. In the ER after a series of medical events a CT scan showed grey matter on the brain. It seemed there was nothing else they could do but when a mama looks at you with an eight day old baby and says this little girl needs her daddy, you have to try something. They began the process to stop the seizures, cooling his core temperature and rewarm it in hopes that it would stop any damage from progressing. Unfortunately on Monday evening at the conclusion of that process a scan confirmed there was no change, Dylan suffered an anoxic brain injury with a stroke. His brain herniated. We were holding out hope and many were joining us in believing for a miracle it just wasn’t God’s will.

<div>Dylan was an organ donor and advocate for it. Tabatha wanted to honor his request so the donation process began. They started to prepare his body and find recipients. That was not to be. On Thursday Dylan’s heart stopped ending the chances of him being a donor. 


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>We don’t know why this happened. Dylan had no health issues going on or history of seizures. 


</div>


<div> 


</div>


<div>It’s so tragic and heartbreaking, something Dylan and Tabatha never could have ever expected or planned for.


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Many of you have asked how you can help Tabatha and Adaline while honoring Dylan. 


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>Dylan was an Army veteran. His Army family along with Tabatha’s Judson College sisters are setting up this fund to provide immediate support to meet their needs and future education expenses for Adaline. 


</div>


<div><br />


</div>


<div>We are beyond grateful for all who want to honor Dylan and support his girls in his absence.


</div>
