My heart breaks for Krissy and Dru as I type these words to let you know that the fight is over. This evening, at a little after 5 pm, we lost baby Peyton, and heaven received an angel. We are so sad for Krissy and Dru, Peyton's incredible, loving parents, and know that no words can take away this grief. Peyton was one special little baby, and will always be loved and always be missed. In only 4 weeks, she taught us all so much, and touched so many lives, near and far. She taught us to treat each day like a precious gift. And she showed us how to love one another and how to come together to help others, whether friends, family or perfect strangers. We love you so much, Peyton.
All we can do now is give Krissy and Dru their space to grieve. And let them know through messages on this blog how much we all love them and that we are all here for them when they are ready. Thank you all for the thoughts, prayers and support that you have offered to Krissy and Dru during this very difficult time.

We can not possibly express in words the sadness that we are feeling right now for Krissy and Drew. The love that they have for Peyton and the memory that she will leave behind will last more than a lifetime. Our love and prayers go out to the Binders and their family. God Bless.
Kate, you couldn't have said it any better-- heaven has a new, beautiful angel, and she will always watch over all of you...
Love,
Deb and Chris
I am heartbroken for you!

We were with Krissy, Dru and Peyton during labor and delivery and we were with them when Peyton took her last breath. She was such a sweet little baby who will be sorely missed. But we also felt honored to have known and loved her, to have held her, and to witness what caring, loving parents Krissy and Dru were to her. Our hearts are broken but we are glad Peyton's suffering is over. We will always love her. We also so appreciate Katie's updating this blog to keep everyone so well informed of what a special baby Peyton was.
Andy and Krissy there hasn't been a day that has gone by when we haven't thought of you guys and hoped and prayed for the best for Peyton and we are so sorry for your loss. There's no pretending that we know what you are going through right now so we won't even try - just know that we love you both, and we're here for you both, and our arms and our hearts are open to you both always.
We are sincerely sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you during this time. We love you both and are here if you need anything. -Joy and Marques

To the entire Blatz family,
I'm so sorry to hear about Peyton. But, even in her short life, what a blessing she already was to you all. Beautiful, beautiful baby. We all need to stay on our knees, God is in control. I'm sure many are angry, but one day we'll all know what his plan was. The sweet baby, is being cradled . . by who knows, it could be my mother!!
You are loved,
K8
Our hearts are breaking for Dru and Krissy in this devastating time. No parent should have to experience the pain of losing a child. Heaven has an amazing, strong, beautiful angel to watch over her family. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all who were blessed to know Peyton.

I am sad and hurting right now, at the same time, a strange feeling of relief that Peyton is not suffering anymore.
I really thought she would come out of this, when I met her (truly honored that I got the chance)she had this full of life energy on her.
She was feeling all the love from her parents, she had so many reasons to continue the fight; God only knows why this happened this way, I trust that he has plans for her and she came to bring people together and save other children in the future.
May the love of Peyton always live inside your hearts.
God Bless you Peyton, Krissy, Dru and families.
Andy and Krissy, I am so sorry for your loss, you have such a beautiful daughter and she will be with you always, you carry her on everyday in your hearts. God needed her with him right away I guess, she is quite a special angel it seems. Take Care both of you - Adrienne (friend of Andy's from SMS).
Kristin and Dru,
I love you both very much. I have known you for almost 20 years. My thoughts and prays go out to the both of you. Peyton was a beautiful baby that is now at rest with God. She will always have a special place in my heart, always. I am always here for you at this time and forever. Like Michelle wrote, I am also here for you whether you need to scream, cry or just talk.
I talked to you on September 9th, and told you that I am here for you no matter what time of day or night; that ALWAYS stands. Please, please, please if you need a shoulder to cry on or rely on, I am here. I LOVE YOU!! Your grandmother and my poppa have someone to look over. Heaven now has a beautiful angel. I LOVE YOU, BOTH!!
All my love,
karen
Krissy & Drew ~
I'm so sorry to hear of this tremendous loss in your young lives. I'm not certain you remember me; we worked together at the Hartford Courant and actually went out together one evening to a dinner show.
I can't even begin to imagine the pain and heartache you are both feeling. Don't even want to try...
I wish there were words that could help you both and your families in this very difficult time.
After some time has passed I would love to see you both.
Here is my cell: 860-402-8986.
Keep close to each other and your supportive family and friends.
Peyton is a beautiful part of you both forever.
Fondly, Dianna Caruso
Krissy and Dru,
I am so sorry for the loss of your baby girl. I was praying so hard that this would end in a positive light, but I guess that was not to be. I really can't imagine the whole that has been left in your heart or the ache left behind in your empty arms. I know that you must be wondering if you can ever go on, but know that somehow you will. Please know that you are not alone, you have many friends who care about you, are crying for you. Remember that we are here for you in any way you might need us, patiently waiting for when that time is right for you. But don't worry about us, but turn to each other for comfort, for nobody could ever really share in your hopes and dreams you had for the future, but the two who dreamed them themselves. Remember the love you shared as you brought this angel into the world and let that love for one another heal yourselves. Be strong for each other and remember your wonderful family who has been beside you night and day since the beginning, and don't be ashamed to lean on them, for that is what they are there for. Don't be afraid to be afraid or to feel lost, for in time you will land with your feet on the ground. Peyton will always be a special part of your lives, and even as difficult as it may seem right now, one day you will have peace. You will look at her picture, you will remember her spirit and strength and you will smile. It will be hard, but I promise you, you will get there. That little baby was fighting a giants battle. God now has her, but the hard part is the confusion, Why are babies and children faced with these battles? We will never know now, but the answers will be answered when we meet in heaven.
With Love,
Cheri Martorelli and Family
XOXOXO
Kristin, I just wanted to tell you how truely sorry I am for you and Dru. I thought about you every day and night hoping Peyton would get better. You are like a daughter to me, and I love you very much.My heart aches for you. May God hold you in his arms and help you with the hurt, anger, and confusion you are all feeling right now. You have a loving family that will be there for you no matter what. I know God is holding Peyton in his arms and telling her what wonderful parents you are and the tough decisions you had to make, and how very much you love her. He is also telling Peyton what wonderful grandparents she has. I am here for you when ever, where ever if and when you are ready. You are a strong and vibrant woman, Please don't lose that. May God hold you in his arms and comfort you and your family. Ilove you. Love always, Marilyn Wanek
