BLAKE<br />
IN LOVING MEMORY<br />
Age 13 months | Acute Myeloid Leukemia<br />
Little Warrior Blake was diagnosed with AML (acute myeloid<br />
leukemia) at six months old. For seven months Blake and her<br />
family lived in the hospital as she endured intense chemotherapy<br />
rounds, radiation and a bone marrow transplant. Their family of<br />
three finally moved home after receiving the devastating news<br />
that Blake had relapsed. They spent the summer treasuring their<br />
beloved daughter and showering her with all the love in their<br />
breaking hearts. On August 15, 2016 Blake went to heaven.<br />
Blakes parents share, “We are so proud of our warrior girl and<br />
feel blessed to be her parents. Throughout her challenges and<br />
triumphs, she always smiled and spent each day discovering<br />
and learning. Blake gave her love freely and found joy in simple<br />
moments. She amazed us with her courage and resilience, and<br />
taught us a profound love that can only be felt between a parent<br />
and child. We will hold her dearly in our hearts until the sweet<br />
day we see her again.”
