Our sweet Poppy. You will forever be a light for all who knew and loved you. Your time on Earth was not long enough, but your impact will be felt for eternity. I'm praying for peace and comfort for Poppy's amazing mother and father, as they truly were some of the best parents and advocates that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. Prayers for his siblings as they enter this new chapter and that God guides them as they navigate through their grief, especially Miss Averie. I am truly thankful for you all allowing me to have played a small role in caring for Poppy, and he has a permanent place in my heart. Get your rest, sweet boy, your fight and will were unlike anything I've ever seen. Love always, Nurse Cat.
