my heart is breaking...
My nephew Dylan just turned 16 on May 13. It was really cool- he was May 13, Chris is Oct 13, Zoe- April 13 and Ruby August 13.... his little brother could've been a Feb 13 but mom (Chris's big sister) couldn't resist scheduling his c-section on valentines day.... all of our loves Lucky 13..... I used to babysit Dyl when I was 19 and he was four- I attempted swimming lessons in the pool at our complex...I made him a "batman cape" out of an old sleevless tube dress that I cut down the middle and he LOVED it... we always had fun and I remember really enjoying his company. He was in my wedding when he was about 8 as a candle lighter and usher. We talked about having him come stay with us for the summer 2 summers ago when he got caught by the police with pot. Dylan was struck by a car as he was walking down a sidewalk last night, he was life flighted to the Medical Center in Houston (where he lives) and was in the neuro ICU but his head injury was too severe. This morning he was prononunced brain dead. Please your prayers for our family- especially his mom- are appriciated. I know we all have to die but this is so unfair. Mandi has lost 3 sons now.
Also prayers for the kid who hit and killed him who is now sitting in jail for being a dumbass teenager with a car who it looks like swerved at his aquaintance as a "joke".

I have just been haunted by this all day. I just go back and look at his sweet and very handsome face and weep. Been thinking of you and your family, you are right, this is so unfair. It is just a tragedy.
