I'm tearing up keeping up with this. You are a very strong man. It too just breaks my heart thinking about Owen. I pray this week for strength for you and your family. Most of all I pray God's hands are wrapped around Owen and comforts him and eases his pain. I pray God gives you and your family every moment possible and Owen when the time comes will go peacefully without pain and suffering. Again thank you for sharing your angel with us. He has touched us all.

Friends who lost their boy march 2nd had a friend who took still shots of Maddox that the parents took in his short life. They then put them on a slide show with music. They played that at the funeral before hand. Very touching. It's now on YouTube under Maddox April 11 - march 13 if you need ideas. Just trying to get you ideas that other parents did when faced with same situation. It's 10 to 1 and all I can think about is Owen and wishing there was something I found do to help.

When I was back home for a month working, I found this video on the camera that my wife had taken. I had forgotten about it. I edited it a little and put it on Youtube so I could always look at it. He had just gotten back to Target House after getting a round of high dose chemo but was full of energy.

....glad he's with his dog. that's pretty important especially at that age....heck even at my age if I was stricken with something like this i'd find great comfort with my dog. God bless ya all.
I can't even imagine what you and your family are experiencing... but if nothing else, I'm glad you, Owen and the family are home so he can be with everyone who loves him in a familiar place (with his dog). That video was so sweet - his laughing brought tears to my eyes, I'm sure you will cherish that for years.. I wish I were closer, I'd love to come over and get some photos for you. Hopefully the thoughts, prayers and well-wishes of your Moparts family can provide you a little bit of comfort.

What a fighter! What a great Mom and Dad, too. Obviously Owen's time here has been a blessing.

Darren, first, thank you...for sharing your story about Owen's struggle with all of us, that alone takes alot of courage. Second, I know from personal experience what you and your family, are going through. My first wife, Julie lost her long battle with cancer in the spring of 1998 at the young age of 38. Third, I will continue to pray for Owen, you and your family. May God bless you, and give you peace, and strength to continue to fight this awful disease as long as it takes.
