As some of you may remember, my cousin's 5 yr old son was diagnosed almost a year ago with adrenoleukodystrophy. Well, AJ passed on this morning after a very hard battle. The disease had left him blind, deaf, unable to walk, sit, or talk. He had a feeding tube placed about 4 months ago after several bouts of aspiration pneumonia. He had another bout of pneumonia about 2 weeks ago and was unable to fight it off despite lots of anti-viral and antibiotic drugs. AJ was at home with his Mom, his brothers and my aunt & uncle. As sad as this is, I know that he is in a much better and more comfortable place.
Could you guys sends some prayers for AJ's family, his Mom and Grandparents are totally devasted and at this point this brothers really don't quite grasp what has happened - they are just 3 and 6.
