Our prayers are with the Salazar Family as they have been for the several past months. Thank you to our supporters who allowed us to be there in their time of need. We were a small part of what was an incredible community response for a family that is loved so very much. May they continue to feel that love in all the days ahead.

Our beautiful sweet sweet daughter, Reagan, has taken her last breath.

We fought for her. We prayed for her. We did everything we could for 94 days. And though our hearts are shattered beyond words and life seems completely unfair, we find peace knowing she is finally free from pain.

Our angel was here for far too short a time, but she changed us forever. We will carry her with us for the rest of our lives.

Thank you all so much for immense amount of community support; the love, the donations, the rallying. We are grateful beyond words. Continue to keep our family in your thoughts and respect our privacy as we grieve the unimaginable loss of our daughter.

Fly free, Reagan. Until we meet again. 🤍

We are very excited to let everyone know, that after almost seven weeks at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Alexander is home!

On June 17, Adeline would have celebrated her 8th birthday.

To honor her memory, her incredible teachers and classmates at HES came together to paint a beautiful mural and walk in her honor. Participants were invited to make donations, with proceeds benefiting Steps Together and Liv Like a Unicorn.

Today, we were humbled to receive an incredible $800 donation. Those funds will help local families facing a medical crisis, just as Steps Together helped the Eick family.

We will continue to say Adeline's name. We will continue to remember both her and her dad. And we will continue to be there for who love her most knowing grief is present every single day.

Alexander is still resting and healing at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

Earlier in the week there was concern because his heart rate was high. The Cardiac Electronic team came to check on the pace maker. It appeared that Alexander had a heart arythmia. Medications have been adjusted and his heart rate is back in range.

Alexander's teams of doctors have had meetings to decided the next steps for his medical care.

The Nuero teams feel that the blood thinner medications were a major contributor to his brain bleeds and do not want him on them anymore.

The Cardiac teams say that he needs the blood thinner meds to ensure that blood continues to flow smoothly through his mechanical valve without clotting.

A decision has been made to replace the mechanical valve with a tissue valve so Alexander doesn't have to go back on the blood thinners, but also his heart continues to function properly.

Before Alexander can go back to the OR for his 6th open heart surgery to replace the valve, he needs to fully recover from the brain surgery he had two weeks ago. The doctors would like to wait 3 to 4 weeks.

Since he isn't on the blood thinner medication, his heart needs to be closely monitored with ECHOs every 3 days. Alexander will remain in the hospital until after he heals from the valve replacement surgery.

Alexander would like to thank everyone for their continued support, prayers and kind words.
