I just got back from Florida where I took my 11 year old daughter to see my mom who is dying. Kenzie (daughter) took her violin to play for mom, who passionately loves to hear this music. Now please pray that mom will last two more weeks so that when I go back on the 20th and meet my son (Michael) who is flying in from California, he will also be able to say his goodbyes in his heart (he is 22). Thank you and God bless all of you!

Doreen, my heart goes out to you and I know how you feel.
Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless Betty and her family and to bring them together as much and as often as possible before you bring Betty home to be with you. Please allow her to see her children and grandchildren. Please allow her loved ones to express their love freely and sincerely, and help us all to appreciate how precious the gifts of life, family and love. Father, please give Betty comfort and take away any pain or suffering. In Jesus' name we pray and believe. Amen
Doreen,
I just have to say WOW and thank you for your email!! It brought tears to my eyes and I want you to know from the bottom of my heart how much your words mean to us. They were amazing and really touched my soul! You can count on my prayers for your mom..even though it has been a good life for her like you said, it is never easy and I will pray that God embraces you all in his loving arms during this time and that your mom may go peacefully. Just remember God will be waiting for her and she will be feeling a joy she has never experienced fo feel his embrace when he calls her home. I also believe that our loved ones who have passed on will be waiting for us when we go so I know in my heart she will also be embraced by all of her loved ones. You are in my prayers and thoughts. I wanted you to know that yesterday my mom was back at chemo after her 2 week break and the Dr said her liver was functioning normally!! and that her cancer markers have gone from 1600's to the 300's!! We think the reason the cat scan showed her liver just a little worse was becaue when she was first diagnosed with cancer, they could not give her chemo without knowing what kind of cancer. During the time she had no treatment after being dx, her liver was getting worse and we think that is what was showing up recently. But, yesterday was such a good day and we were so excited. They added another type of chemo and she will be losing her hair but that's ok...we are doing whatever we need to do. My dad joked and said to her "We'll be twins!" He's bald:) I have no doubt that your prayers have helped with the woderful news yesterday. It was my grandma's b-day..my mom's mom who passed away about 6 years ago. We also know she was watching over us yesterday! Thank you so much for you love and support. It means more than you will ever know. God Bless you and your mom...we will be praying for her and know she will be happier than she has ever been up there with God watching over you and your family. Please know we are here and if you ever need to talk...I'm here.
I pray in the name of Jesus Christ that time will be added to Betty's life.....and that her little grandauhter will play that beautiful song on her violin at her grandmother going home service.....thats what grand-ma wants ....saith the Lord ....in Jesus name ....amen
