Our sweet girl is now an angel. She passed away today, March 22nd, 2012 at 12:34pm.
Chip and I were with Stephanie, RN with hospice going through our normal routine check-up on how things are going and discussing medications, etc. She was asleep with us right by her. All of a sudden she just stopped breathing. No gasping, no crying, nothing. It was the best way for her to move on. I couldn't have asked for anything better for Kaitlyn.
We held her, said prayers, told her how much we love her and how proud we are of her and laid next to her until the funeral home arrived to pick her up. Chip carried her in a pink blanket with the blue and white bow still on her head to their van.
We are thankful that Kaitlyn is free from her body and can do all the things now that she couldn't do here on Earth. We are devastated by her loss but we know that she made a huge impact on many people's hearts and lives.
She will be taken to Levine Children's Hospital to have small samples taken from her body to be sent up to the Niemann-Pick Disease Center at Mount Sinai School of Medicine to further research on Niemann-Pick Disease, Type A.
We will post details of the visitation and service once they are arranged.
In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Niemann-Pick Disease Foundation in memory of Kaitlyn Bourgeault, Type A. Click here to donate.
What a remarkable journey.
ReplyDeleteHow fortunate we all are to have Kaitlyn and the rest of the Bourgeault family touch our lives the way they have.
Thank you.
Thank you for sharing her with all of us. xoxo
DeleteWhat a beautiful angel she is!! I'm so very sorry and yet so very grateful to have been touched by her. We are forever blessed. Love you, Christine
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry, but I am so happy that she is now free. I am so thankful that she passed so peacefully and that you were with her. I so wish I could give you all a great big hug.

ReplyDeleteI am so sorry but she is can now play and be free of the pain. Thanks for the update even though it is very sad. But she went peacefully and in the comfort of so much love. I knew this time would come and I still don't believe it. But now you can play with your balloons sweet girl. And because of an email with your Mommy every butterfly I will ever see I will always think of Kaitlyn Kay!! You are free now of the pain my little angel. I love you so much!!!

I just ran across a post on facebook from a friend about your sweet angel. I knew nothing of her until 10 minutes ago. I'm in tears right now. She is such a beautiful angel. It hits home too. I'm due to have a baby girl in 2 Weeks. We are naming her Katelyn Grace. You will be in my prayers. I can't imagine what you have been through. At least she is with Jesus now.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet little angel...I'm so sorry and yet thankful that this sweet girl is not in pain anymore. God bless you all and may He hold you in your arms.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing Kaitlyn with us. It has changed my life. Prayers for you to be strong as Kaitlyn would want you to be
ReplyDeleteGod has a new very special angel. So sorry for you. I know you will miss her so much.
ReplyDeleteMay God comfort you now. Until you see Kaitlyn again, you have a special Angel watching over you from Heaven. You did the very best for Kaitlyn.
ReplyDeleteLeaving her tiny body & getting to run free of sickness!! Tiny wings for a tiny angel!! Can you imagine her smiles & giggles now?! What a beautiful journey!! Sending my love & support for your family
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful ANGEL you now have watching over all of you .... she was a fighter, and a true blessing ... Im thankful for your daily blogs ~ its made me a better person, and a better mom ... I know this was expected, but nonetheless, not any less painful...so when you miss her, look up and know she's smiling down on all of you!!! xo

My heart is breaking for your family right now. There are just not any words to express my sadness for your family during this time. You are in my thoughts and in my prayers. I pray God will wrap His arms around your family and provide you comfort during this time.
ReplyDeleteReading this, weeping tears of sadness and joy all at the same time. Praise the Lord, sweet Kaitlyn is home! I bet Jesus held her on His lap, gave her a huge hug, and said "Well done!!"
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing your story and truth with us. We are lifting you up in prayer and will continue to do so. Sending so much love and many blessings...

A friend posted this link on facebook, and as a mother, I wanted to come by and tell you how my heart aches for you. Your beautiful little girl has flown away to Jesus, but I know it must leave a gaping hole in your hearts and lives. I will be praying that you find the strength and peace you need to get through this time.
ReplyDeleteGodspeed, Kaitlyn. Thank you for changing my life by sharing her, Deanna and Chip. I am so, so sorry for your loss. I will never for get you or Kaitlyn.
ReplyDeletePrayers continue to be lifted up to you and your family. Your sweet baby girl is now free from the illness that has bound her body and her sweet spirit is now able to spread its wings farther than ever--although that is kind of hard to believe knowing how many lives her young life touched here on earth. We love you Kaitlyn and will continue to surround your parents and little brother with our prayers and love! Chip and Deanna, you will forever be an inspiration to me in raising my own child. May God bless you and surround you with His love and grace and peace.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry. You guys have been in my prayers every single day. You truly are an amazing family. Love to all.
ReplyDeleteRest in peace little angel!
ReplyDeleteDeanna, your family is in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteOh Deanna and Chip, others have said everything. I weep and I sing! She has been made new! Jesus has wrapped his arms around her and welcomed her home. Prayers for comfort come your way today. What beautiful parents you are. You are loved. We all are here for you, praying and loving you. Thank you for sharing your lives and your beautiful girl with us!
ReplyDeleteI am so, so sorry. I remember giving our baby daughter to the nurse to take to the funeral home and how absolutely awful it was. There are no words. I am keeping your family in our prayers and will continue to do so in the days, weeks, and years ahead. Kaitlyn has touched so many people! She is a beautiful girl and was so blessed with wonderful parents.

ReplyDeleteHeaven has gained another angel. I'm glad that Kaitlyn is free of pain and that she can now do even more than she was able to do here on earth. I'm sorry that with the freedom for her, comes pain for those left behind. I continue to pray for your family.

I hope that you continue on with this blog and continue to share your faith with us. Sending prayers your way... ~Lyndsay - Boone, NC.
ReplyDeleteHow touching to echo Kaitlyn's words, "All Done." I am so sorry for you all, but so happy for Kaitlyn. I continue to pray for you all because the coming days will be difficult. I know you do not know me, but I can honestly tell you that I love you and I love Kaitlyn.
ReplyDeleteMay Kaitlyn's angel wings raise her to Heaven where she will be free of pain and suffering. I can only imagine how impossibly difficult it is to say goodbye to one's child. You are both wonderful parents and gave Kaitlyn a loving, caring and Christian home to enjoy during her time on earth. Blessings to you and Cole as you cherish the sweet memories in the days ahead.
ReplyDeletePeggy Hughes (JRT)
So very sorry to have read this. Thank you for sharing your journey with all of us. Kaitlyn was a beautiful little fighter and will still do so in Heaven. Strength to your family. God Bless.
ReplyDeleteGodspeed, Miss Kaitlyn! I will never, ever forget you. I now have my very own Guardian Angel up in Heaven watching over my family and I. You are, and always will be, my Hero. Chip and Deanna, thank you for allowing us all to get to know, appreciate and LOVE Miss Kaitlyn. She will live on in all our hearts and minds. I wish you comfort, healing, and love.
ReplyDeleteRespectfully,

You will all continue to be in my heart and prayers. What a journey you have had. I will pray that God stay with you on the journey ahead as your family adjusts to a new normal. Kaitlyn will be at heaven's gate when you all get there one day. I am so thankful that even though I don't know you all, I gained insight into what it means to love and trust God completely. My family is honored to make a donation in memory of your precious daughter.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your journey. I'm very sorry for your loss. Kaitlyn was a beautiful little girl. I love how you say that you are thankful that she is free from her body so she can do the things she couldn't do here on earth.
ReplyDeleteGod saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered “come to me.” With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best. - An Irish Prayer
ReplyDeleteGod Bless
Godspeed, sweet Kaitlyn. All blessings of peace and love to your family left behind.
ReplyDeleteGod loaned her to us for a while.
ReplyDeleteShe blessed us with her love and smiles.
She touch so many with her life.
Now she's free from pain and strife.
She's free now to run and play
There in Heavens eternal day.
Because of God's mercy and grace.
Kaitlyn is seeing Him face to face.
She took a part of our heart when she left.
We trust that our Lord knows best.
Someday we'll rejoin her her new home.
Until then we know she's never alone.
Your family is beig lifted in prayer. Thanks for sharing your precious child. I'll never forget her. Judy Farrar, friend of Mary Hogsed.
I heard the news about Kaitlyn and burst into tears. Then I read this post and felt such peace coming through your words. This family has been used by God to fulfill his service and all I can say is "Well done. All of you." I am truly blessed and thankful that God put all of you in my path and has strengthened my faith. Rest peacefully Kaitlyn!
ReplyDeleteI will continue to pray for your family just as I prayed for your beautiful Kaitlyn. She is free to run and do all the things a little princess should be doing. She IS a beautiful angel!
ReplyDeleteFly to Jesus,
ReplyDeleteFly to Jesus,
Fly to Jesus,
and live.
God bless you family. I can't even begin to imagine what you have been and are going through. Thank you for sharing Kaitlyn with us. Hold on tight to our Lord....it will be the only way through this.
I'm so sorry for your loss. One thing in particular struck me, and it's that you are sending part of her body to the school. What an amazing gift you've given to science. I realize you had time to plan, but still, I'm in awe by your grace. My deepest condolences. You've done an incredible job as parents, I'm sure. She was lucky to have you, and you were lucky to have her.
ReplyDeleteShould read Someday we'll rejoin her in her new home.
ReplyDeleteAnother Angel has her wings today. May your family find peace and in time have the ability to celebrate her truly remarkable life. Having lost a child I understand the total devastation and loss you are feeling today. Your family remains in our thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteA friend posted your blog on facebook yesterday so I haven't followed for a long time but Kaitlyn was truely your living angel. Can you imagine the nice, big, beautiful bow that God has for her! I'm praying for your family and your peace. Just think, in what will be minutes, maybe hours to her, she will turn around happy and healthy and greet you when you make your trip to Heaven! God Bless,
ReplyDeleteBarbara from Texas!
May God wrap you in His arms during this time of need. I can only imagine the pain that your family is going through. Just remember that she will always be looking down on you. She has her WINGS now. RIP SWEET ANGEL!!! <3 **JESS**
ReplyDeletePraying for you and your family during this time. How wonderful to know that Kaitlyn in the arms of the Lord at this very second! She was an amazing little girl! You and your family are such an amazing testimony of the Lord and His faithfullness to provide comfort and peace. Thank you for sharing your story. God bless!
ReplyDeleteI've been following for several months now here in Costa Rica. I am so sorry for you but so so happy for your baby girl who no longer struggles to breathe and live. May God give you peace and comfort in the coming days and weeks and years.
ReplyDeleteDeanna, Chip and Cole - I am so very sorry for your loss. Kaitlyn has touched the lives of so many, she will never be forgotten.

ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss, and yet grateful that Kaitlyn is now happy and free. Thank you for letting me be part of your family through this blog and for letting me get to know your beautiful baby girl. It's amazing how a tiny little person that I have never met has so profoundly changed my life. May God's grace be upon you and may you feel Kaitlyn smiling down on you until you can be with her again. With love and prayers from Alexandria, VA
ReplyDeleteWe were blessed to witness your family's grace...Kaitlyn is no doubt sitting on Jesus' lap having a wondrous time..God bless you all!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a cliche to say that she's in a better place, but it's the truth. All of the pain and difficulty you've so eloquently documented here is over and will never touch her ever again. All that's left for her now is love and happiness and beauty. All that's left for those who remain behind are memories of this wonderful child. Take care.
ReplyDeleteDeanna, Chip & Cole, we are so sorry to hear of Kaitlyn's passing but rejoice with you that she is no longer feeling any pain or in any suffering. She is free. May God bless you in the days, weeks and months to come.

ReplyDeleteoh- I don't even know what to say. I am so sorry for your loss, but am so thankful your sweet girl went peacefully and that you were both with her. Sending you all lots of love and prayers.
ReplyDeleteI found your blog 2 weeks ago from a friend and haven't stopped thinking of you. Every day since I've given thanks for the time I have with my own 2 girls. Much love to you, your family and Kaitlyn. May she rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteDeanna and Chip, I just want you to know that I was driving home a little while ago and while at a stoplight, I looked up at the clouds. Right in front of me was a cloud shaped like a kneeling angel with her head bowed and hands together in prayer. I immediately thought about sweet Kaitlyn. I am just now reading that she has passed on from this life and is an angel with Jesus now. I think God allowed me to see that cloed formation so that I could share it with you during this difficult time. I have been, and will continue, to pray for your family.
ReplyDeleteWe are so sorry for your loss. My God's grace and strength overshadow your family. Thank you for sharing Kaitlyn's story and allowing us the privilege of getting to know your wonderful family. Y'all will continue to be in our prayers.

ReplyDeleteMy husband and I were introduced to your blog a week ago. Kaitlyn and her family have been in our prayers daily, and the prayers will not stop here. You are wonderful parents and gave her so much love and support- she was truly a lucky girl to have you as her parents. Kaitlyn was a strong, beautiful and courageous little girl who taught me so much in just one week. I hug my daighter just a little longer and a little tighter every day. I am in the process of reading past blogposts and am grateful that you have shared your story with me. You are both beautiful writers and it's a wonderful thing that you've captured your thoughts and pictured over the past year! We are so sorry for your loss today. Our thoughts and prayers will remain with you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI am so extremely sorry for your loss! I will never forget Kaitlyn and your amazing journey! You have changed my life forever!

Much love to the entire family during this difficult time from MA!!

Such a beautiful angel, Kaitlyn Kay! I pray for peace & comfort for you all during this hard time. I'm sure it's beyond devastating, but I can just imagine Kaitlyn looking down on you all and how amazing she feels now:-). May God bless you & provide comfort like only he can give!
ReplyDeleteI, like many others, have never met you or your family. I happened to see a post on Facebook directing me to your blog. I have read through your whole journey and I find myself thinking about Kaitlyn throughout my days. Your strength as parents and unending faith in the Lord is SO inspiring. Kaitlyn was so young, but from reading people's comments on your blog, she has touched and changed so many people's lives. I know that there are no words to make this time easier, but hopefully you can take some comfort in knowing that she is free of pain and that you have so many people praying for your whole family- people that you've never met even. I have experienced loss as well- I lost my twins the day they were born. I wish I could say that I had just half of the strength and faith that your family has shown. Your story is inspiring and truly life changing. You all are in my prayers daily and will continue to be in them.
ReplyDeleteGod bless your family during this difficult time. Thank you for sharing her. What an inspirational family!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for your loss. May your special girl rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteYour family is in my thoughts & prayers. Kaitlyn is now an angel watching over everyone & now she will be running & playing in heaven. I can't imagine how much pain your heart feels. My heart aches for you & your family but I know you have your son and husband to hug and kiss and comfort. God bless you all
ReplyDeleteI am so very sorry for your loss. But I am so glad she went so peacefully. I will continue to keep you all in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteI was introduced to Kaitlyn and her wonderful family only a week ago. In that time, I cannot tell you the profound impact you've had on me. My heart has ached for you as I've checked in on your fight throughout my days. I am truly a better person and father for your strength, faith, and courage.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kaitlyn! May you fly free and without the pain from this world.
Thank you Deanna and Chip for sharing your journey during this difficult time. You are great parents and people. I pray for peace and continued strength for you.
You do not know me, but I read about your daughter through a friends post on Facebook... I am so sorry for your family's loss and will keep you all in my prayers. I have been reading through your past posts and have truly been inspired by your ability to see the positive moments throughout this difficult journey and to see every moment as a blessing. I pray that other people who have the gift of reading about Kaityln and your family will be reminded to do the same. May God Bless You all during this time.

Oh, Deanna, Chip and family,
ReplyDeletePresently I can just cry. My heart aches for you and your family. I am just so pleased that so many of the prayers for Kaitlyn were for a painless ending, and God answered our prayers. You and she were loved by so many. I hope that Kaitlyn runs hand in hand with my departed, and when I enter heaven, they greet me at the door. I will give Kaitlyn the biggest hug and kiss ever!! My prayers are now for you as you adjust to a new life and lifestyle .....painlessly. God, hear our prayers.
Thank you for sharing her with us. She will be with all of us forever.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for your loss! Thoughts with you and you're family! Thank you for raising awareness and showing people how far faith can take you!
ReplyDeleteHeaven definitely got brighter today. She dancing free and happy now. I feel so honored to have been part of this journey with you even from afar. Because of all of you, my family will never be the same and we are forever grateful.
ReplyDeleteGod bless all of you.
ReplyDeleteI will always be touched by Kaitlyn's journey and your family and their strength! My prayers for peace and comfort are with you. It makes sense that around the time of Kaityn's passing the sky turned from cloudy to sunny...I bet she is lighting up heaven with her laughter and spirit!
ReplyDeleteSo very sorry for your loss. Kaitlyn is now pain free! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of her life. She will be with us forever. Lifting the family up in prayers. God Bless you and keep you wrapped in his arms.

My heart aches for you but also is thankful that Kaitlyn is at peace now. I will continue praying for comfort and healing for your beautiful family. Much love!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss. I often thought of your daughter and your family even though I have never met you. God gave you this beautiful girl for a little while but just couldn't spare her for long. He must have some pretty special plans for her! He definatly picked the most amazing parents he could find for her short time here. I am glad he listened to all of our prayers and took her quickly. May he bless your family and keep you in his arms while you go through this difficult time. Karrie, Maine
ReplyDeleteSpeechless and in awe of your family. Deanna & Chip, no words can say how I feel for you. The image of Chip taking beautiful Kaitlyn out of the house brings me to my knees. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing us to follow Kaitlyn's journey. <3
ReplyDeleteYour beautiful angel walks with God. Sending prayers your way.
ReplyDeletePrecious family, my prayer is for God to wrap you in His arms in the days and months ahead and to give you wonderful memories of your precious little one. As Cole grows up I knowed he will be blessed with love and happiness because you shared with us the way every parent should love and care for a child. God bless you and thanks again for sharing Kaitlyn with us!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear this. Kaitlyn has warmed many hearts, mended many and touched well beyond anyone can understand. She truly is an angel with all she has accomplished. You guys are amazing in your strength. May God grant you peace. Soar high baby girl, God Speed
ReplyDeletePerhaps they are not stars in the sky, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our loved ones shine down to let us know they are with us. Kaitlyn will be the brightest star of them all! You will all be forever in my heart. Thank you for sharing Kaitlyn with the world. Job "well done" Kaitlyn, well done.
ReplyDeleteGlad Kaitlyn is in peace and pain free now. Sending you all hugs and kisses. You family has taught me much about grace and love. May God embrace you with love and comfort during this difficult time.

Tears are flowing here right now...Rest in peace sweet angel. Your work here is done now fly free. Chip and Deanna, again I thank you for sharing Kaitlyn with us. She was a beautiful little girl (with beautiful bows) and you two sound like the most caring parents she could have asked for. You gave her a life full of dignity and quality. Your family is in my thoughts.
ReplyDeleteTo Deanna and Chip from a Farm Friend!
ReplyDelete"God gave the most precious gift to me~ As He did so he whispered so tenderly, "This child I give you is not yours to keep, When I call her Home, please do not weep. For I will take her by the hand, across my bridge of love, Together we will fly to my Golden Gates above, Where she can play in the sand, as soft as a sigh, The sun will always shine on her, in a summer blue sky, Her playmates will be Angels with gossamer wings, Her own spiritual mother, a sweet lullaby sings, I'll welcome home, this child, so precious in my sight, She'll be safe at last, a child of Gods light. So do not grieve when the time comes, she's forever in my care, Behind Heavens Doorway, she'll wait for you there......
I read this with sadness but happy to have read your blog. Your entries have brought to light NPA and I will forever be touched by what you have shared with all of us. I hope you may find strength during these times and please know that Kaitlyn's story and journey have touched so many.
ReplyDeleteSweet Jesus, thank your for taking our darling Kaitlyn under your caring arms. Now watch over her mommy, daddy, and baby brother until they meet again.
ReplyDeleteDeanna and Chip-----you are like no other! Blessings to you.
So sorry to hear about Kaitlyn, she was such a blessing and I followed her story on facebook. She was such a strong little girl and fought her way to the end. Her story was very touching and inspiring!! She is no longer in pain and she is looking down over he loving parents and little brother who were by her side the whole way. I pray that God gives you peace and strength to get through this loss, and that you continue to look to him for guideance.

With sorrow, sadness and love here in Richmond. You are in my thoughts.
ReplyDeleteMy God continue to comfort you during this difficult time. I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet baby girl. She changed my life and I never met her. Love and prayers to you all. Grapevine, Texas.
ReplyDeleteKaitlyn is running and playing with all of the Angels. She is talking and telling them all what wonderful parents she have and how much she loves them. God bless that sweet angel.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your loss..May God bring comforts to u and family....
ReplyDeleteAs a mother I know that the loss of a child no matter the circumstance is truly devastating...My thoughts and prayers are with your family and hope that you all hang on to the love of Jesus throughout this most difficult time. She is a precious Angel now. I want to thank you for sharing Kaitlyn's journey with us....the good and the bad. You have allowed Kaiytlyn to touch so many lives and we all truly love her. God Bless Deanna and Chip and God speed Kaitlyn.
ReplyDeleteTanya
Kaitlyn, I will NEVER forget you. You have touched my life and my heart in so many ways I could never thank you enough for. I hope to be lucky enough to meet you one day in Heaven.
ReplyDeleteDeanna and Chip, I can not imagine the pain you are feeling right now. As believers, you must be thrilled she is at peace with God now, but as parents you must miss her so much it physically hurts. God knew what he was doing when he chose the two of you to be her parents.
I will forever think of Kaitlyn running in a field chasing butterflies. Thank you so much for sharing her with me. I am so in love with her! She inspires me to be a better mom and to be thankful for my children. I heart and prayer will always be with your family.
Love Always,
Amy Smith
May peace be with with you.

Heaven has another beautiful and amazing little Angel. As hard it is, know that Kaitlyn's journey on earth has touch so many lives. May God Bless you and your family as you go through this difficult time. My heart aches for you and I will keep you all in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteAngela
Love and peace to you and your family. You are wonderful people and I truly feel for you.
ReplyDeleteRest in Paradise, sweet angel. My sincerest condolences to the family and friends of Kaitlyn. Deanna & Chip, you're tremendous parents and human beings.
ReplyDeleteShe is a beautiful little angel now, but her memory will carry on forever. My prayers are with you and your family.
ReplyDeleteWords cannot even express how my heart aches for you. I've never met you and I never met Kaitlyn, but you all have touched my heart greatly. I can't imagine a better set of parents for that beautiful little girl. This post was so bittersweet for me to read- sad for the obvious reasons, but happy in that her struggle is over and she's now free to run and laugh and play. Your journey with Kaitlyn and the remarkable strength and positivity you've carried yourself with are an inspiration. What I've taken away the most from reading all of your posts is the complete absence of anger, bitterness, or resentment. It has made me want to be a better person and more appreciative of the things I have. Rest in peace sweet baby girl.
ReplyDeleteI saw the story of Kaitlyn on a friend's Facebook page. She was such a beautiful little girl. Now she is a beautiful little angel. I am so very sorry for your family's loss. Though I don't have children my heart aches for your family. You will be in my prayers. God bless you and your family. God will protect Kaitlyn's soul now.
ReplyDeleteMy eyes are filled with tears and my heart hurts for her. And y'all.

Deanna, Chip and Cole-
ReplyDeleteYou have my deepest sympathies. Kaitlyn was a remarkable little girl. She gave and received more love and inspired more people in her short life than most of us will in our entire lifetime. It was an honor to know Kaitlyn and follow her journey. Our prayers, thoughts and love are with you and your entire family.

I cannot express the sadness I feel right now. I have never met you, Chip or little Kaitlynn but I am praying for all of you right now. As the father of three little girls, this news simply breaks my heart. I wish there was something I could do to provide comfort during this difficult time and know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers. God bless you and your family. Heaven now has a new little angel at its doorsteps.

Go in peace and laugh on glory's side.
And Fly to Jesus,
Fly to Jesus.
Fly to Jesus and LIVE."
Thank you, sweet Kaitlyn, for your Jesus story, courage, and precious life that has touched so many. Dance with Jesus, dear little one, and LIVE.

Deanna, Chip, and Cole, My heart cries for you, but it also rejoices for Kaitlyn. Heaven just got a little sweeter! Thank you so much for allowing me to get to know Kaitlyn during the time I was able to come help you. I look forward to Heaven even more now that she is there. I know her smile and love will light up Heaven even more than it lit us up here on Earth. Jesus loves the little children! Again, I'm so sorry for your loss. Please know that my thoughts are with you.

My heart breaks for you. You are such an inspiration of faith, patience and love. I pray for you.

ReplyDeleteI am crying for you right now. I follow your story everyday and will continue to pray for you and your sweet Kaitlyn. All my love.
ReplyDeleteSweet Kaitlyn, God Bless You!! Thank you for coming into our hearts! Your Mommy and Daddy have been such an inspiration and I am thankful to have known you through words. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your Journey.
ReplyDeletePrayers of love, peace and comfort,

I remember being privileged enough to hear Kaitlyn say those two words: "All done," and now to see your perfect reiteration of them to express her ascension into peace fills my heart with sorrow, but still love and prayer for Kaitlyn, as well as the family and friends who I know for a fact have had their lives changed by this marvelous angel.
ReplyDeleteI have been quietly watching sweet Kaitlyn's journey, sending my support through prayer and thought rather than comments on this blog. I have silently hoped for constant comfort for Kaitlyn for quite some time, but I can stay silent no longer. My support, love, and prayers, as well as those of my family, is now definitely openly present for the Bourgeault family and always will be.
I must reiterate that Kaitlyn changed lives, and she is in the hearts of each person that was graced to know about her life and journey. Because of this universal love for this sweet angel, she will never truly be gone, but in our hearts forever, for as Emily Dickinson wrote "Unable are the Loved to die, For Love is Immortality."
My deepest condolences, prayers, and support-
Chloe Smithson
Your family is so inspiring. I have been reading your blog and have found so much hope, love, and strength between your words. You gave her such an amazing life that has touched millions and we thank you for sharing your story of love and devotion to your child. She truly is an angel to us all. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.
ReplyDeleteI have been following your sweet daughter's journey for a couple months after seeing on facebook a friend requesting prayers for all of you. I am so very sorry for your loss but so happy that sweet Kaitlyn is not longer suffering. She is with our dear Lord doing all the things that a little girl does with no more pain, discomfort and suffering. I will continue to keep you all in my thoughts and prayers as you mourn the loss of your sweet angel.
ReplyDeleteDear Lord, Please wrap your arms around this sweet family and help comfort them as they deal with the emotions and feelings of the loss of sweet Kaitlyn. Thank you forgiving her the ability to hang on and fight as long as she did. Thank you for giving her parents the strength, courage, support and love to take care the sweet angel you put in their care. May they continue to get the love, support and encouragement to move on from here with the constant reminder that their angel is in a better place. Amen

I could not help but cry when I saw this. I am so very sorry for your loss. God has gotten a very Beautiful little Angel in his arms now. Kaitlyn is now talking to our Lord and everyone else in Heaven. She will always be in your hearts and she will visit from time to time. Again I am so very sorry for your loss.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for sharing your blog with us. I enjoyed reading about Kaitlyn everyday. I will miss her as well. I Prayed every night for her and you.
God be with you in your time of sorrow.
I know she will have many greeting her, but I sure hope she meets my daughter.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sad to hear about Kaitlyn's passing today - I've followed her updates and said prayers for months since I began reading. I know words offer little comfort on such a difficult day, but I still wish I knew a perfect combination to help as much as possible. What a brave little girl, and inspirational fighter. I'm glad to know she's no longer hurting and in a beautiful happy place. My thoughts and prayers are with your family today.
ReplyDeleteAmong many praying for you for what you have lost. Kaitlyn was absolutely beautiful and how you expressed your heart made those of us that don't personally know you, fall in love with your family and drew us to pray on your behalf. Know that will not stop in the days, months and years to come. Forever changed. Lord please hold this family as you are holding their sweet baby girl.
ReplyDeleteI can't even express the impact this precious child has had on so many she could not have asked for better parents to love and cherish her through her journey may God bless your family through this tough time! RIP sweet Kaitlyn!
ReplyDeleteGod Bless this precious little angel and her family. I know it is hard to say goodbye and I pray that you will find some peace and solace as you rejoice in the life of this special little girl. She has touched the hearts of so many and helped remind us what is really important in this world. There is nothing as sacred as the love between parents and their children and you have shown remarkable love to this wonderful sweetheart. Tonight we are all Kaitlyn's parents and our hearts ache with you, but at the same time they are overflowing with love for this blessed child.

ReplyDeleteI am so sad to hear this, but, like you said, glad Kaitlyn is able to now do all the things that she couldn't here on earth. I am sure the angels are rejoicing to be in such lovely company today
ReplyDeleteI was introduced to your blog somewhere near the beginning of March, when one of my friends posted a link. I just want you to know, that I was instantly touched by her story, and more importantly, the love your entire family showed her. I was truely inspired by the lasting bond you shared with Kaitlyn, and I know that even now, this bond will not be severed. I have recently gone through a tough loss as well, though I know it is nothing compared to the pain of loosing a child. However, I know she touched many people's lives, and that she will never be forgotten. And you must remember, that now, in Heaven, she is free of pain, and she is in the loving care of our Lord. Everyone in Heaven will take good care of her. I have prayed for your family every night since I first began to read your blog, and the prayers will not stop. I'm truely sorry for your loss.
ReplyDelete"Daddy please don't look so sad, momma please don't cry.
ReplyDeleteCause I'm in the arms of Jesus, and he sings me lullabies.
Please try not to question God, don't think he is unkind.
Don't think he sent me to you and then changed his mind.
You see I'm a special child, I am needed up above.
I'm the special gift you gave Him, a product of your love.
I'll always be there with you, so watch the sky at night.
Look for the brightest star and know that's my halo's brilliant light.
You'll see me in the morning frost that mists your window pane.
That's me in the summer showers, I'll be dancing in the rain.
When you feel a gentle breeze from a gentle wind that blows.
Know that it's me planting a kiss upon your nose.
When you see a child playing and your heart feels a tug,
Don't be sad mommy, that's just me giving your heart a hug.
So daddy don't looks so sad and momma please don't cry.
I'm in the arms of Jesus and he sings me lullabies!

I know she will be greatly missed by many. My prayers are with your sweet family right now as you go through this difficult time. You are right though. Kaitlyn is now in heaven doing the things her earthly body wouldn't allow. She is running into the arms of Jesus. Love and prayers!

I have been blessed to have gotten to know your family and sweet Kaitlyn through a mutual friend. Your story has changed my perspective on life with my two little girls and trivial things don't matter anymore. My four year old prayed for Kaitlyn often, so sweet, so innocent and so sincere. Kaitlyn has been called home. You as parents have done the very best and have given her so much love. You inspired me. You will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. I pray for the peace and comfort that can only come through God. Thank you for sharing Kaitlyn with us. Thoughts, prayers and hugs from Bedford, Pennsylvania.

ReplyDeleteThere is nothing I can say that hasn't already been beautifully said. My heart is heavy for you tonight. I once heard someone say that some souls are so special that they can only be on loan to us for a short time before God needs them to return home. Kaitlyn most certainly has an incredibly special soul. She has touched so many lives, mine included. My prayers are with you. God Bless.
ReplyDeleteYours truly,

Your family is in my prayers and I hope your amazing little girl has truly found peace. Thank you for being brave enough to share the story of your struggle. I hope this can be a window for a cure.

ReplyDeleteSo happy it was, what seemed to be, a peaceful passing. She will never die because she will always live through you.
These tiny footprints were meant
ReplyDeletefor other things.
You will hear my tiny footprints,
in the patter of the rain.
Gentle drops like angel's tears,
of joy and not from pain.
You will see my tiny footprints,
in each butterflies' lazy dance.
I'll let you know I'm with you,
if you just give me the chance.
You will see my tiny footprints,
in the rustle of the leaves.
I will whisper names into the wind,
and call each one that grieves.
Most of all, these tiny footprints,
are found on Mommy and Daddy's hearts.
'Cause even though I'm gone now,
We'll never truly part."
My thoughts are with you all. Someday with Kaitlyn's help, there will be a cure for NPD.
I am so sorry for your loss. I am, however thankfull that Kaitlyn is now in heaven with Jesus, pain free and happy. She is an angel! I continue to pray for your family through this dificult time. You are amazing parents and thank you for sharing Kaitlyn with us.
ReplyDeleteYou are loved.
