Cooper Earned His Wings

By Lana, July 9, 2009 10:02 am

We met an adorable little boy named Cooper at this years Tay Sachs conference in Boston. Cooper had GM1 Gangliosidosis (a disease similar to Tay Sachs) and just turned two in May. Yesterday on his Caringbridge site, Cooper’s mom wrote, “Cooper peacefully earned his wings this afternoon as the three of us sat on the swing outside. We were talking and rocking, and he just decided it was time. We are so thankful that he chose the time and place. It couldn’t have happened that way if we’d planned it… just as it should be.”

If you would like to leave a note of encouragement for Cooper’s family on his Caringbridge site, click here. Please keep this family in your prayers.

I love this recent picture of Cooper. One thing is for sure, Cooper’s family gave him a wonderful life.
