Yesterday afternoon late, Devon was declared brain dead.
A decision was made late last night to donate his organs.
At 6am this morning they shut down the respirator and took him away.
He is now a hero by saving others' lives.

Wesley is deteriotating after showing signs of improvement. Yesterday afternoon, he had a stroke which has been a major setback.
Just to clear up a misunderstanding - this is not the same Wesley I often talk about. My Wesley has been very supportive, sending me texts of support right through the night.

Thank you everyone for the kind words in comments, mails and tweets.
Happy Thanksgiving!

We will pray for his soul. Our thought are with you and your family in this hard time.
ReplyDeleteMy condolences. And it is quite honorable to donate his organs, on the chance to save another life, while he will be remembered for his own.
ReplyDeleteSethy, I am oh sorry and deeply hurt and saddened by this tragedy you and your family have suffered. I know no words will help your pain only time and forgiveness can make you whole. I send prayers for comfort to you all. may the Lord have mercy on Devons soul and find him innocent. May the Lord bless you and your family in this hard time. May he sooth the hurt and any anger and frustration you all may feel. I send to you my love and compassion in this time of pain. Life is so hard to understand. When two little lambs go out to the meadow chasing butterflies and they don't come home because the wolf was waiting. Devon is in the arms of the Lord may you find some comfort there.

To give ones own life so another can live is the most precious gift of all. I did not know this person but to you and his family I pray for you all. God bless you and the departed.
ReplyDeleteLet his spirit be free.
You and yours have my deepest sympathy. I lost my babushka to an accident similarly. We also donated her organs and because of that four people got a second chance, one even regained sight because of it. It is a noble thing to think of others in your time of loss like that.
