After three longs weeks of fighting so hard to stay with us, Avery passed on last night.
Tracey and I were with her and ensured that she was showered with warmth and love.
In the three weeks that our daughter was with us, she showed us that strength is measured in many ways. Avery, never weighing more than 1 lb 13 ozs, is the strongest person we had ever met.
Avery was my first child. And even given her very difficult situation, she brings me such joy and happiness. I believe she's impacted other people as well and this is something that will stay with all of us.
Tracey and I are doing fine. As you can imagine we're going to keep to ourselves a little over the next couple days. Feel free to be in touch via e-mail and I will continue to update the blog on how we're doing and on Colby's progress as often as possible.
Thank all of you for your love, support and compassion during Avery's journey.
Scott & Tracey

We are so sorry to hear about baby Avery. What a strong little miracle...No doubt your love and support for her allowed her to finally rest after such a long fight. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
All our love and support...

May Avery know how much she is loved, how much she inspired, how lucky we are to have had her for the time we were allowed..........and how proud she may be of her courageous, loving parents.
Scott/Tracey,
Just wanted to let you both know that you continue to be in our prayers as well as those of the members of our church. The Lord works in mysterious ways some times and defies our logic, but all is for a greater purpose. We will all understand one day why He lets things happen the way He does. Until that day know that He is faithful no matter what. Be strong. Take care of each other. God bless you both!!!
