My 4 year old grandson, my ex-step daughter Misty's son, drown this week and they are trying everything they can to revive him. There is currently no brain activity. The Doctors and Nurses are doing overtime trying to bring him back. Please say a prayer or two or even three for him. Thank you....

David, your grandson definitely has our prayers, as does your entire family. This must be so difficult. I don't even know what to say.
God bless.

Please remember David and little Xander's parents, Cris and Misty Vento during their time of loss.

Hugged my 6-year-old a little longer before I left for work tonight. I can't even imagine what they must be going through.

David, I am so sorry for the loss of your grandson. Praying for your family.

Copied this from Tony Tim's link:

FORT WORTH — Four-year-old Xander Vento jumped into a Fort Worth pool earlier this week to try and save a younger child.

His heroic act was a success, but Xander did not survive.

On Saturday evening, more than 100 friends and neighbors gathered to celebrate the selflessness of an innocent child.

They were dressed in green and held green balloons — green was Xander's favorite color.

"He was my best friend," said Xander's dad, Cris Vento.

Xander was rescued from a pool in the Village of Woodland Springs subdivision in far north Fort Worth. Saturday evening, friends and neighbors returned to the pool to honor Xander and support his family.

"I feel honored to call Xander my son," Vento said in front of an emotional crowd. "I have chosen to look at it as an honor that he was selected to go to heaven early to serve with our Father."

Mark Vento said his nephew was born an as an angel and will leave an important legacy.

"He showed the world what a true hero was, what sacrifice really means," he said.

The three-year-old who Xander saved is okay.

His family donated Xander's organs, another charitable act that saved an additional six lives.

The loss of a child has to be the most difficult time a parent can go through. Donating his organs is a trememdous act on their part. I pray that God will bring comfort and strength that only he can bring to their family. My heart just aches over such a loss.
