De acuerdo a un fundraising page that was set up on behalf of the family, Andrew, one of six children in the family, came down with a fever and threw up. He was in the bathtub soaking in six inches of water when the accident occurred; just 15 feet from the kitchen and living room. He was found unresponsive. The family started chest compressions, which led to a slight heartbeat. 

He was rushed to Wilcox Hospital before being medically evacuated to  Kapi’olani Children’s Hospital in Oahu, where Andrew was put on life support before passing away due to his injuries on Oct. 17, 2024.

The family continues to ask for prayer and guidance as they face this new journey ahead of them.

“Faith is to trust that God’s will for our life is greater than our own,” said Hamilton. “Thank you all for the love, prayers and support in this trying time.”
