The eight-year-old, whose four-year battle with cancer was a source of inspiration to so many, died at Children’s Medical on Friday. His funeral is tomorrow at 10 a.m. at Prestonwood Baptist Church. From the teamconnor website:
Connor endured over 220 nights in the hospital, more than 40 blood transfusions, about 2-dozen platelet transfusions, 25 rounds of chemo, 14 surgeries, two bone marrow transplants and countless procedures with visits to specialists in Boston, New York, Houston, Dallas and Guatemala. Yet he didn’t complain. He was a fighter to the very end. When he checked into Children’s Medical Center about 10 p.m. July 9, doctors said he had about two hours to live. Connor took his last mortal breath at 4:47 p.m. July 10, 2009.
Our condolences to a very special family.
