I only worked with Chad for a few months at the Hospice Home, but it seemed like a long time. His personality was such a joy to me and all the staff at Hospice of Wake County. You and your daughters will be in my prayers. With Love,

I only learned yesterday of your family and the 3 year struggle you have had. I read alot of your blog last night and it was as Heather said – amazing. You don't need a stranger to tell you Chad is in a better place. But I do want to tell you to keep being the strong woman that you have become and you & the girls will be fine. Keep the traditions going in his memory while remembering to live your life as he would want you to be happy. God Bless You, Lorie Faircloth
Skye,
I began reading your blog about 2 weeks ago and I check everyday to find out how your family is doing. As a total stranger I know there is nothing I can say that will make your journey any less difficult, but I am so glad you did decide to share your journey with us. My family is also thinking and praying for you and your family. Know that God never leaves your side even though he has a funny way of leading our lives sometimes.
In Christ,
Ashlee
Skye our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Skye, My heart breaks for you and your family's loss. I am so very, very sorry. I am so grateful to you, for allowing us to follow your journey. You are an amazing mother, wife, and woman. Your strength has been unbelievable. Many times I think about you and what you are going through and I am reminded that I need to keep my big girl panties on. Chad was so very blessed to have you by his side during this journey. The idea of Chad being pain free makes me smile. He fought so very hard. He is now resting in the arms of Jesus. May you feel his presence and see his love for you reflected in the eyes of your girls.
Skye, I believe that our heavenly Father diercts our lives and that He is always with us.
In prayer, I am asking Him to give you strength, peace and comfort in the
days ahead. My condolences to you and your beautiful little girls during this
time of sorrow.

There are no words to express my deepest sympathies to you and your beautiful daughters. My thoughts and prayers are with you all today and will continue to be. Blessings, strength, and grace to you.
I'm so sorry to read that Chad has passed, but thankful that his struggle is over. I worry for you in the days ahead, I hope you can take some time and space to grieve and be cared for. Thinking of you and your girls, Bella xx
I wish I could just wrap you and your family in my arms and make the pain and sadness go away. Thankfully, Chad is no longer in pain and can look down on you and the girls and protect you now and forever. I just found out about your family not long ago, through my sister in law, and my heart just aches for what you have had to go through. You will be in my thoughts
Prayers of peace and comfort for you and your sweet girls.
Dearest Skye, you have been an inspiration to many, many people. I am thinking about you this morning, and know you are hurting, so would like to share a prayer that I have been saying for you.
“You can Make it Through the Storm.
Thank You that You are not only the God of sunny skies but the rain in our lives as well.
So I come to You on behalf of Your daughter (Skye) whose heart is hurting. I ask that You
would draw her to You. Shelter her with Your love, protect her with Your peace, keep her
safe in strength. May every drop that falls bring forth life, growth, and unexpected beauty
like spring flowers after storms. Wherever she may be as she reads these words, may she know she is loved, and prayed for…..You know the hairs on her head and how many cares are in her heart. So I place your daughter in Your loving hands and ask you to bless
and strengthen her today –and every day until brighter days are here again.
Hollie Gerth”
God will tenderly comfort you….He will give you the strength to endure.
