Thank you Mommy and Daddy for loving me more than humanly possible. Make sure Clay and Olive remember their big brother as they get older.
I was told I had no chance, maybe 30 days tops. I gave them 1,317.
I truly believe everybody is put on this earth with a purpose. Mine was to inspire...

Dear Jetty, You did inspire and there are no words that can say how much you will be missed.
His purpose was to make you amamzing parents..he made you strong, enduring, compassionate, and selfless. Your whole family is truly an inspiration.
Thank you for your blog.
Jetty,
You will remain in the hearts and souls of all who have known you. You were a blessing to all of us...we will miss you.
Love, Aunt Debbie
Oh, Jetty...you are finally at peace. You have been an amazingly strong fighter in your short life. You are an inspiration to all of us who were fortunate enough to know you. We love you!!
I am devastated. I am happy for Jetty to be on his new journey, free of nasty seizures, meds, O2, stuck in a body that never worked...but I am terribly sorry for the loss that I'm sure you are all feeling right now. Jamie - I'm so glad we got to talk the other night and that you kissed Jetty for me. I will treasure that picture forever. I hope when Jay gets to Heaven, he and Jetty can play together like they were never able to in these earthly bodies. Holding Jetty in my arms was one of the happiest moments of my life and I thank you for allowing me to do that and for always sharing his story with all of us. You have been blessed to have had such a beautiful angel in your family.
If there is anything I can do, please let me know. My love to you all,
Kari
We were all blessed to know you! I am sure you are laughing and playing, running and jumping with Jesus and so many others who love you but left before you!
Love to you--Jamie and Creg. You were truly a blessing to Jetty and wonderful parents!

Jetty was an inspiration. You both are wonderful parents and Jetty was one lucky little boy. There is nothing that anyone could say to heal your hearts, just know that God called home a precious little angel that is now running and laughing and playing and has no more sickness. Thinking of you all in the days and months to come and praying that God will see you thru. Betty Jo Embert

Jetty, It was a privilege to know you... To hold you... To kiss your forehead during those unfortunate stays at the hospital. You and your family demonstrated a strength I'd never seen before. You will forever be in my heart, and I will miss you. Love, Jenn Majchrzak

Jetty,
My last visit with you is still so fresh in my mind. You were so tolerant while I placed your hands in the bowl of Orbeez and while we rolled on the ball. You were so relaxed afterward that you melted right into my lap. It was the beginning of a new peaceful existence for you, one free of seizures.
I am so grateful for all that I have learned from you and your family, both as a therapist and as a human being.
Rest in peace Jetty,
Ms Kerry
"and now these three remain : faith, hope and love... but the greatest of these is LOVE "
Our hearts go out to you and your family...

Dear Jetty~
Thank you for sharing your 1,317 days with us. You have been an inspiration to all of us. You have the best parents any little boy could ask for. They have shown all of us strength and courage. Sorry you didn't get that beer that Daddy had promised you here on earth but I know you are having a blast in heaven doing all of the things that you couldn't do here on earth. Enjoy your new journey without any medical issues.
You are loved and missed by all.
Jetty will not be forgotten and will be well missed. He inspired many with his ability to fight for so very long. My thoughts are with all of you. Rest in peace Jetty you have earned it.

Thank you Creg and Jamie for giving me and my family the opportunity to grow and connect because of the strength that Jetty gave me by fighting the good fight. The love, innocence, and peaceful serenity that he instilled upon this Earth during his short life with forever reign in all of the lives and hearts that he touched. Peace be with you, Clay, and Olive during this time, and for all time memorializing the beautiful angel that you have bestowed upon all of us.
Dear Jetty,
I've smiled at every picture of you since I began following your blog. You were truly blessed to be with a family who loved you beyond words and they were blessed to have you. I know the pain of your passing has left a hole in your parents heart that will never be filled, but they will now feel the flutter of your wings with every breeze that blows. Thank you for inspiring the world.
Stephanie Miller

Jamie,
I just wanted to let you know I am thinking of you and your family. I never got to meet Jetty, but from everything that I have read I know he must have been a very special little boy. I give you and your husband so much credit for not only being wonderful parents to Jetty (and Clay and Olive) but also for sharing with everyone thru all of the ups and downs. I admire you both so much. I bet Megan is looking after Jetty for you and loving every minute of it! We love you.
Sheila
Jamie and Creg, I just last night learned of Jetty's journey to heaven. I am so sorry. My heart aches for you and your families. Jetty has his wings that Daddy promised. They are just a different kind of wings. R.I.P. Jetty
Dear Jamie and Creg,
I was sorry to hear today that Jetty passed this weekend. I can't imagine what you are feeling now. You got to walk the path together for a time while Jetty had much to teach you.
May your memories of your time together ease your sorrow.
In gratitiude for sharing his life with us,
Larissa
Dear Jamie and Creg,
I cried when I went to the blog today and read that Jetty had passed away. Then I remembered my faith in God. We are taught as Christians that our forever life begins when we are with our Maker. Jetty is now with Jesus and is being loved and taken care of just like his Mom and Dad did here on Earth ONLY he is now running and jumping and being a 3 year old little boy. I have followed your blog since the day Jetty was born (my BD is June 19th), I got so much inspiration from him, but most from you and Creg. You were given a special child and you loved and treated him like one. Your reward will be when you are once again reunited with him.
Thank you for sharing Jetty with me.
Love and prayers,
Julie DeVine

I was blessed enough to be Jetty's first Social Worker when we met in the NICU. The one thing that everyone agreed on, was that Jetty had the most awesome parents! I am convienced that the full life his family provided for him, is the reason he lived so much longer than what the doctors guessed. Thank you for sharing his journey with us.
Never had the pleasure of meeting you and your family but was certainly inspired by your story. My niece played at WAC and that is where I learened about your sweet family. I pray that you are all doing well. Woke up thinking about you. ❤️
