I have prayed my entire life that I would not have to experience what is happening. Tonight they ran tests on our precious Benson LaVel Bradshaw to find there was no brain activity. That meant that they are now taking him off life support...Jer and Andrea are now in with him. All of the family have been able to hold and kiss him. We were each able to say a prayer. We talked a lot about eternal families and that Ben will always be a part of our family. It was the hardest thing I have ever done but I trust that Heavenly Father knows more than I do. One thing is for sure....no baby has ever been more loved.
To all of you that have kept us in your prayers, we will forever be grateful. We are blessed to have each of you in our lives. We love you!

Janet,
I have been staying updated on little Ben through your blog and I have been hoping and praying that I wouldn't have to read a post like this. I am completely heart broken for Jer and Andrea and your whole family but at the same time I wanted to tell you that each time I read about him I felt the spirit. It's like he was a tiny missionary. I wish we knew all the answers right now but I am so grateful for the knowledge that families are forever!
Love always,
Victoria
Thank you so much Vic...we all love you and are so thankful for your support. That was the hardest thing to post, but I do agree...he only needed to come to earth to get a body because he is the perfect little missionary. Grandpa LaVel probably already has him anxiously engaged in the work he loved.
However...it is pure heartbreak for those of us left behind! Love you Vic!
