We lost Jackson yesterday. I haven't told Jed yet. People say "there is a reason for everything and to look for the positive", well for what crappy reason did this happen? and there is NO positive in this. This was a 3yr old that was sweet and funny and smart and sooooo loved who had to suffer and then go, nope not 1 good thing in that.
Oh Jackson, we are happy that you are no longer suffering but we will miss you so much.
May you never run out of silly string.
Love Jed and Kristin

I put a copy of the post from Jackson's carepage in here.

Jackson found peace yesterday. He was surrounded with love by his family. He woke breifly to make sure he had some silly string to take to Chuck E. Cheese. When ever you hear thunder and see lighting it is Jackson shooting silly string in heaven. Love you Smoosy, Mom and Dad.

Services for Jackson will be held Saturday February 10th at St Paul The Apostle Church in Annville. Visitation begins at 9 am and will be followed by Mass at 10. A luncheon will be held following the graveside service. Directions to the church can be found on the church's website: http://www.saintpaulsinannville.org/. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions can be made to the Hershey Medical Center Music Therapy Fund. Checks should be made payable to Penn State University and mailed to Penn State Hershey Office of University Development,A120, 600 Centerview Drive, Hershey, Pa 17033. Please include a note indicating the gift is in memory of Jackson.

Oh Kristen. I am so very sorry about Jackson. I'm sure this as much a loss for you as it is for his family. I plan to take a small collection at work and donate to Hershey in honor of Jed and Jackson's friendship. I'm with ya on the search for a reason...just can't see one good thing in this. Such a tradgedy. Love you so much. Meg
