The heart-wrenching journey began when little Zoey, just three years old, was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive brain tumor. The world seemed to come to a standstill for her family, Casey and Ben.

Faced with this devastating news, they made a courageous decision to cherish every remaining moment with their precious daughter.

For the next two years, Zoey bravely underwent numerous cancer treatments. Their hope was buoyed by her initial improvement, including a significant treatment phase in Germany involving radiation therapy.

Sadly, despite all efforts, Zoey’s health declined, and on the serene morning of July 4, 2018, she passed away peacefully at home.

Despite the overwhelming sorrow that enveloped them, Casey and Ben found solace in the simple joys they shared with Zoey during her final days. They opened their home to friends and family, allowing them to say their farewells and filling the atmosphere with warmth and serenity.

Casey captured an achingly beautiful moment with a photograph she shared on Facebook. The image, infused with love and peace, showed their last gathering around Zoey.

Surrounded by the comforting presence of loved ones and their loyal dog, they spent those tender moments watching a Harry Potter movie and singing Disney songs, enveloped in an atmosphere of tranquility.

While sharing the photo was undeniably painful, Casey’s intent was to eternalize those final precious moments. The post resonated deeply with a vast audience, sparking a ripple of empathy and love across social platforms. In the spirit of spreading Zoey’s resilient hope and boundless love, the family established a Facebook page titled Zoey’s Light.

The profound lesson that Zoey’s journey imparts is a gentle reminder to savor the small, priceless moments life has to offer and to love without reservation. Casey and Ben remain steadfast in their mission to honor Zoey’s vibrant spirit, perpetuating her light and love to touch everyone they meet, even through their grief.
