I just read a message from a sweet young lady that I befriended on this site. And my heart broke for her and her family. She wrote me twice to keep me informed about her mom's condition. Final condition, the battle is over for her. But that don't mean the WAR has ended.
There seems to be no adequate way of expressing your heartfelt sympathy in times like these. We do our best. But sometimes all we can do is hold a person. Pray strength into the family. Remind them to be KIND to one another during these difficult days.
But you know in all the sorrow I felt in her short note to me, there was some envy there as well. She told me her father and mother laid down together and went to sleep. SHE NEVER WOKE UP. Even with all the pain and struggles of her last months here, her mom still had the most supportive BRA one could ever find. A HUSBAND that was there in sickness and in health.
People cherish your family, friends, and neighbors. You never know when it will no longer be there for you to lean on or to ask forgiveness. WE never know what the last moments will be. I would love to have a moment knowing that the person that loves me the most, is there when I need them the most.
