In all of Treys time in the hospital, he only really broke down one time. He was the most content and resilient person Ive ever known, especially under such difficult circumstances. When I think about how my 7 year old son endured the way that he did, I cant help but thank God for the extra grace He gave Trey to preserve like he did. But, just a few days before Trey went to be with the Lord, Trey had a breaking point. Emily was with Trey and the doctor came in, and Trey got very tearful and said, I want to go home. I miss my family. I still cry, even now, when I think of how Trey was wanting so badly to be normal and to be well and to be back with his whole family. I will tell you, as a parent, thats the worst feeling in the world...to be able to do absolutely nothing to help your child. Emily wept, our doctor got emotional, and when Emily called to tell me...I just cried out to God for help! I wept and begged God to let my son come home...and it was just a few days later that God did take Trey home...to his eternal home. In a sense, I think Trey said enough that day, but I also think God did too...and God loved Trey so much that He just decided to set him free from all of it. Tonight, while I still grieve and miss Trey so much, I rejoice greatly knowing that he is 100% whole and healed in every possible way. I dont know when Ill see Trey again, but whenever it is, it wont be soon enough. I love you and miss you so much Trey, and I cant wait to see you soon.
