On my way to church yesterday, I heard a familiar voice on the radio station KSBJ. :) I listened to the story and the tears started flowing. It hit me right away that this was my friend telling the story of our sweet Nick! WOW, I loved it! Wanted to let y'all know his story is being heard everywhere! Keeping his memory alive here in Houston, Love Meaghan

I had the priveledge of coming across this remarkable young man at my job at Texas Children's Hospital. I was immediately inspired by the kind and peaceful nature of his mother as she sat by his side day at night and provided unconditional love and support. As one of Nick's many healthcare providers and Respiratory Therapists, I did everything I could to make my patient as comfortable and happy as could be given the circumstances. No matter how miserable or weak Nick may have been some days, when it came time for his treatments, he never EVER told me no. He showed me the true meaning of stamina and resilience everyday I saw him fight for his life. Even though Nick's mother told me stories of a noncompliant phase he went through, I myself never saw it. I always saw a sweet and precious young man that would have contributed to society in phenomenol ways had God given him the chance. As a fellow mother, my heart shattered to watch Nick's mother look at her son with truly hopeful eyes and yet still see that glitch of pain and harsh reality as we all knew the possible devastating outcome in the days to come. I say that to say this...I never saw that woman show any kind of weakness or surrender to Nick or to his illness. She showed me strength, hope, love, and the faithfulness that I needed to see during the times of my own struggles. She does not know this, but she was an angel to me. The day before Nick met Jesus, I got to meet a whole crew of Nick's wonderful friends and family as they sat with him and celebrated happier times and Nick's favorite holiday. It was Christmas in the ICU that day for Nick Peters. I dreaded walking into his room to say goodbye but as his mother brought me in, I was immediately overcome by a heart warming sweet serenity in that hospital room. I knew right away that God was near and there was no doubt in my mind where Nick would be going soon. A place we can only dream of. I will often think of Nick and his family and especially his absolutely amazing mother that I can only hope to be someday. Know my prayers are with you and you will never be forgotten. Nick has a very special place in my heart. Please contact me, I would LOVE to hear from any of you and keep in touch. 281-914-8080. Much Love and Thanks, Meaghan Sedita, RT

I remember coming abound the Facebook page "Team walker Pete-Nick Peters". I followed his battle with hope. When I didn't see any updates I then looked up the page. As a looked I saw the last update that he had passed. I cried for what might have been an hour and a half. Today October 11th I went to the Funeral ( Celebration of Nick's life) I cried a little but tried not to because I wanted to be strong not just for myself But for the family of Nick. Forever touched,Inspired,loved by many. We will mill you Nick!
