Even though Nick was diagnosed with appendix cancer at age 24, he and his wife decided to ask God for the blessing of a baby. Knowing that his time was near the end, Nick left this powerful video message for his baby daughter that'll move you to tears.
"That little boy is my son and is autistic. I worry every day that he is going to get bullied for being different and your son just absolutely warmed my heart. If there were more children like him I wouldn't worry about such things."
"I couldn’t help the sobs. I got my boy and we moved to a secluded table and I held him as I explained what was happening... I held that 6-foot 4-inch, 175-pound boy. I rocked him as he asked if he would lose her...or both of them."
Her son was experiencing pain, fever, vomiting, diarrhea and sore muscles. Then he woke up with the worst rash she's ever seen and told her, "I’m Going to Die."
If a child is born with a hole in her heart, everyone in our society would respond the same way. We would all say, "Oh, that's so sad! Is there something we can do?" No one would ever wag his head at the child or the parents and say, "You must have done something wrong!"
