Beautiful Dandelion!

On Tuesday we said goodbye to Mema. It was a sad day. While we were at the cemetary, I was holding K as she cried. That made me cry all the more. E came over to me with a dandelion and said here mom I have a flower for you! He is already trying to take care of me. Thanks E! I will always remember that love.

Please Pray!

Yesterday my in-laws were in a head on crash. My father-in-law is in stable condition. However after fighting for her life all day yesterday my mother-in -law went home to be with Jesus. She just had to much trauma to pull thru. After giving her maasive amounts of blood and plasma transfusions all day. Her blood would not clot. Her whole body was just filling up with blood and fluid. The doctors told us there was nothing else they could do for her. After a long hard desision, we decided to let her die on her own. Right after we talked to his dad about it. He said let her go. She does not want extra means to keep her alive with no chance of recovery. Once he gave her permission to go, she left us within a minute on her own. It was as if he gave her permission to go, and she left. I feel as though she was still protecting us in the end. We did not have to unplug her, she made the choice to go herself. She just ned our permission.
Please pray for my husband and our 4 children. She lived across the street from us and they saw her everyday. Please pray For her husband, who has some major trauma himself and has just lost his wife of 48 years on there 48th wedding anniversary.
Thanking you God for all the years we had with her. She was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother. As of August 6,2008 at 6:20 pm we commit her into your hands. We rejoice with her that she is running on streets of gold and has no more pain. We just mourn for ourselves, because we wanted her here with us.
