To all:
I am both sad and relieved to report to you that our son Conner
William Chadwell has passed away. Sad because we will miss him
tremendously, but relieved because we know he is with God and because
we know now that he will not have to struggle any longer with his
health problems, and I must admit, neither will we.
Conner lived for nearly 18 days, leaving us at 5:10 pm on November 8.
He died in his grandpa's arms
(that grandpa is also the owner of a 1980 TR8, by the way
some of
you may know him from the TR8 list, Tom Chadwell)
Thursday afternoon Conner went into respiratory distress and spent
the vast majority of his final 26 hours or so with extremely erratic
and difficult breathing. On a regular basis he would breathe heavily
for 10 or so breaths and then his breathing would pause for another
10 or 15 seconds of more. His color went away for much of the time,
as did his temperature, but he did have a few breaks where he would
awaken, regain his color and body temperature, cry and breathe
somewhat regularly, but each time he reverted back to his struggled,
labored breathing.
We are very confident that our baby boy did not suffer any pain
he
died peacefully and quietly.
Thank you all for your kind words of support and encouragement. We
are sorry to bring this sorry news, but I knew many of you would be
anxious to hear nonetheless.
Again, thank you so much.
