“Our sweet Crew went to be with Jesus today,” she wrote on Dec. 30. “I rode on the bed with him to the O.R., with Jeff walking beside me as the surgical team pushed us through the halls. People lined the halls to pay their respects to our little hero and then we said the hardest goodbye of our lives. I’m not very good with words right now, because my heart hurts and I’m angry.”

“Crew’s Story has reached masses, and it selfishly hurts me that it has,” she wrote. “I’m thankful for all the love and support that we have been shown, but please keep in mind that we can see your comments, questions and conversations with one another. Put yourself in our shoes (which is impossible to do) and ask yourself if you’d want to read what you’re about to write or say.”
In May, Brittani and Jeff announced they were expecting again. "Sent straight from Heaven and without a doubt, hand-picked by big brother Crew himself," they wrote alongside a video of the family walking in a field.
