“This is why I’m posting my daughter’s final moments on Facebook,” says the mother.

Zoey was just three years old when her illness was detected.

She was full of energy and constantly on the go before illness struck, just like so many other kids. She was raised in a caring home. She was sweet, amusing, and enthusiastic.


One day, Zoey tripped while playing. A few weeks later, she lost control of both hands.

When Zoey’s family noticed anything was wrong with her, they took her to the hospital right away.

When they arrived, they heard something that will stick with them for the rest of their lives and leave a message they will never forget.

The doctor informed them that their cherished baby daughter, who was so full of life and love, had DIPG, a rare and serious brain tumor.

We had no idea what to do or where to go. “We were told it’s basically a death sentence,” Casey, her mother, added.

The family would suffer a tragedy and nightmare that no one would wish on their worst enemy.

But they managed to keep their cool and made an effort to be strong for Zoey’s sake. Over the next two years, Zoey would go through a slew of cancer treatments.

Zoey responded well in a radiation therapy clinic in Germany, which the family found. But she ultimately stopped responding.

She suddenly began to feel worse. Unimaginable things were about to happen.

Zoey died quietly in her American home on July 4, 2018.

Despite the knowledge that their family would be crushed by her death, her parents thought they might have some pleasant last moments together.

Zoey continued to spread happiness until the very end. Her parents invited all of her family and friends to visit them and meet her before it was too late.

Her mother has now boldly decided to post the family’s final moments together on Facebook.

“I shared it because, even though it’s a painful moment, it’s also a beautiful moment in our eyes,” Casey said.

Mom and Dad are pictured with their arms around their beautiful daughter.

They’d taken a seat on the couch with the family’s dog. They’d spent the day singing Disney songs. A Harry Potter film was playing on television. And then, out of nowhere, Zoey vanished.

The world will learn about Zoey. We will continue to give back and bring love and light to the world because she has given us so much of it.

Almost halfway through the film, Zoey’s heart stopped beating.

“I had seen a few families sharing moments and didn’t think I was going to share it.”But then I thought to myself, “I want a photo like that taken.” “I want to capture those moments so that I can remember them forever, even if my brain is gone,” she said.

Through the Facebook page Zoey’s Light, the family wants to spread the optimism and light that Zoey gave the world all those years before her passing. They want Zoey to inspire others to support one another and to unreservedly and gratefully love one another – one ordinary day at a time.

No mother or father would ever have to go through what Caseby and Ben did.

Casey and Ben, you have been the most wonderful parents ever. My prayers will go on indefinitely. Zoey is now an angel that watches over all of us.

Sweet Zoey, rest in peace.
