In memory of our precious baby, Remington "Remi" Lyn Remer: August 30, 2011

August 30, 2011

Today, we delivered a basket of food & goodies to one of my best friends staying at the Ronald McDonald House at The Toledo Hospital. She and her husband had triplet girls, born at 30 weeks gestation. They are doing great, but will be in the NICU for several weeks until they are big enough & strong enough to come home. Please pray for the girls - Mia, Brynn, and Adrie - and for their parents :)

We also sent a prepaid VISA to the family of a little baby in the PICU at U of M. She has some digestive issues & the family is traveling back and forth each day to be with her. Please pray for baby Sophia & her parents. We hope this gift card will help pay for some of their expenses.

Happy Thanksgiving! We are the parents of little Baby Sophia (Scott and Jessica). We received the gift you got us today, on Thanksgiving, and don't know how to express how thankful we are. This was the most thoughtful gestures that anyone has done for us.
Baby Sophia is home now and is growing like crazy. We were lucky enough to finally find the right Dr's to help heal her. Again, we can't say enough how thankful we are for the gift and also for helping remind us to be even more thankful for what we have, a happy healthy baby. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. They worked!

About R Angel

On March 13, 2009, at 9:41 pm, we were blessed with a beautiful baby girl, Remington Lyn. We were aware that she was going to have Down syndrome, and we were so excited about the journey ahead of us. That night and the next day many doctors checked her out, and we were told she was healthy and could go home with us the next day. We took our little angel home the next day and were able to spend 3 wonderful nights at home as a family. Then Remi was admitted back into the hospital for jaundice. She was soon diagnosed with Hirschsprung's Disease and was scheduled for surgery. On March 26, 2009, she had her first surgery and complications started soon after. On March 27, 2009, she had her second surgery. Ten days later, on April 6, 2009, she left our arms and went to heaven to be with Jesus. While Remi was in the hospital, we stayed right by her side every second of every day. Our wonderful family and friends brought us all the shower/bathroom supplies we needed, clothes from our home, and more food than you could imagine. However, we realized through this whole experience, how difficult it can be having a child in the hospital for many days and how hard it is to live out of a waiting room. Because of this, we created R Angel. The money donated to R Angel is used to help families of sick children. We use the money to purchase and deliver care packages with shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, toothbrushes, etc., baskets of food and drinks, and hot meals from our favorite restaurants to families living in the hospital with their children. We also use the money to purchase prepaid VISAs for families that may be traveling back and forth to the hospital daily to be with their child as well as families that are in hospitals outside the Toledo and surrounding area. We want to keep the spirit of our daughter alive and want to help families staying at the hospital as so many helped us.

God Bless! Ben & Amy
