In loving memory of Hudson

My name is tristyn chase and I spent a week and a half in the hospital with my 13 month old son, Hudson. He was born on the 12th of April, 2021. 2 months early. Premature. He spent several months in the NICU. That experience alone scared me to death for both him, and his twin brother. 

 

He choked on a corn dog while at a

sitters while I was at work. His heart had stopped anywhere from 15-20 minutes and he was not receiving any oxygen to his brain or little body for all that while. They re started his heart and unfortunately, the brain damage was very severe. All but the stem of his brain was functioning. He was able to initiate his own breaths but the ventilator was doing most of the work. After 3 days, it started to get worse. A week in and he was considered “brain dead” and tests were performed to confirm that. I am so heartbroken, everybody is. He was the happiest, sweetest boy. He was only a year old. His life was robbed from us before it could even start. I spent my days and nights in the hospital by his side in hopes a miracle would take place. God had a different plan. I believe everything happens for a reason, but what is the reason???? I am in so much pain. I have two other kids to support and be there for. Another which is Hudson’s twin brother, Banks. A part of me went with him when he left. I laid by his side as they took the breathing tube out and let him pass. It was hard. The hardest thing someone could ever experience. I wanted to be there and spend every last moment with him and I wish no one ever go through the pain of that. He will forever be missed and he will forever be loved. What a nightmare. So tragic. He was so so young. My heart hurts so much.

We agreed for Hudson to be a donor. You wouldn’t think it’s that hard of a choice but it was.  He can go on to save a few lives out there that need it. In a way I can look it as he gets to live life through someone else. In a way that can bring me a tiny bit of peace ❤️ and I hope to someday meet the ones that do get a small special part of my sweet boy. 

Anything helps. Thank you for your donation.
