A VISIT FROM ~ROSIE

LEILA, AMY'S BEST FRIEND CAME TO SEE HER TODAY. THE POSTMAN CAUGHT

MY HUSBAND OUTSIDE AND GAVE HIM TWO PACKAGES. I ASK MY DH IF HE CHECKED

THE MAILBOX.......LEILA AND MY DH CHIMED IN, "THE MAILMAN BROUGHT TWO

PACKAGES TO THE DOOR!" I SAID, "I KNOW THAT, BUT SOMETIMES HE DELIVERS

THE PACKAGES AND THEN BRINGS THE MAIL LATER. BESIDES, I KNOW MY

BLOGGY FRIENDS, AND SHERRY'S BLOGGY FRIENDS AND THEY ARE SENDING

CARDS TO AMY!"

MY HUSBAND CHECKED THE MAILBOX AND BOY, YOU SHOULD HAVE SAW THE

SHOCK AND DELIGHT ON MY BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER'S FACE AND SHERRY'S

DARLING NIECES FACE WHEN THERE WERE...........DRUM ROLL PLEASE..........

~THIRTY TWO CARDS!!!!!!!!!!

~THIRTY TWO CARDS!!!!!!!!!!

YOU BEAUTIFUL LADIES AND OUR BILL, THE ONE GENTLEMAN.......ARE AWESOME!

YOU BROUGHT SUNSHINE TO AMY THIS FRIDAY AFTERNOON. MY MOTHER/

AMY'S GRANNY CAME OVER AND WATCHED HER OPEN THE TREASURES SHE

RECEIVED AND NOT ONE SINGLE CARD WAS ALIKE.......IT AMAZES ME HOW

MANY DIFFERENT CARDS THERE ARE.

I HAVE ALWAYS HAD A LITTLE CARD MINISTRY WHERE I SENT CARDS TO

SHUT-INS AND CHRONICALLY ILL, THOSE BATTLING DEPRESSION AND NEVER

UNTIL TODAY....."THE LIGHT CAME ON".....HOW VERY HAPPY IT MAKES

SOMEONE TO RECEIVE SUCH SUNSHINE. I CRY THINKING HOW VERY HAPPY

IT MADE AMY. AMY IS SO WEAK NOW, I HAVE TO OPEN THE ENVELOPES

UP FOR HER AND HAND HER THE CARD.

IN THE BOX THAT CAME TODAY WAS A SPECIAL LITTLE GIFT TAKING A NAP

IN PINK TISSUE. AS WE OPENED THE PINK TISSUE OUT FLUTTERED ROSIE, THE

GARDEN FAIRY. SHE TOLD US HOW MANY MILES SHE HAD TRAVELED, AFTER

BEING TUCKED IN THE PINK TISSUE LOVINGLY BY LIZZIE. LIZZIE, HER MAKER,

GAVE HER INSTRUCTIONS TO SPRINKLE ROSIE GLITTER OF SUNSHINE RAYS

EVERY TIME A SMILE BEGAN TO FADE FROM AMY'S FACE.

ROSIE TOLD US SO MANY THINGS ABOUT HER BEAUTIFUL OUTFIT MADE FROM

VINTAGE RIBBONS, SILK HAIR, SPARKLY NETTING, AND VINTAGE MILLINERY.

ROSIE IS HANGING FROM THE CHAIN THAT OPERATES THE CEILING FAIN IN

THE LIVING ROOM AND SHE IS BESIDE A BUTTERFLY MY MOTHER BOUGHT

IN THE CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT SECTION AT HOBBY LOBBY.

I JUST WANT TO MENTION THAT DARLING ROSIE WAS SENT BY LIZZIE

http://vintagelizziestyle.blogspot.com

I HAD NEVER MET LIZZIE BUT I WENT TO HER BLOGSPOT......THIS IS AN

AWESOME WOMAN WHO IS A SINGLE MOTHER OF 4 AWESOME CHILDREN

AND SHE LIVES IN A 200 YEAR OLD HOUSE IN DENNIS, MA. I WAS NOT ABLE

TO READ ALL HER BLOG BUT SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL ARTIST.

THINGS ARE ROUGH FOR AMY....HER PAIN IS SEVERE....THE DOCTORS DID NOT

TELL US THE TUMOR WOULD CONTINUE TO GET BIGGER AND BIGGER UNTIL HER

NECK COULD OPEN. IT SEEMS TO GET BIGGER AS YOU WATCH IT.......AMY CAN

ONLY LOOK STRAIGHT AHEAD. SHE CAN NOT LOOK TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT AND

HER NECK IS PULLING TO THE LEFT. WE HAVE TO KEEP LOOSENING THE BAND

THAT HOLDS HER TRACH IN PLACE.

SHE IS BEGINNING THE PROCESS OF KEEPING HER EYES SHUT EVEN WHEN SHE

IS AWAKE TO BEGIN THE SEPARATION FROM THOSE SHE LOVES. I HAVE HAD

4 MAJOR PANIC ATTACKS WHERE I HAVE HAD TO TALK TO MYSELF....I

LITERALLY COULD NOT CATCH MY BREATH.

I TELL YOU THAT IT IS AT THESE TIMES YOU REALIZE NO MATERIAL POSSESSION,

NO MATTER RICH OR POOR, LOVED OR UNLOVED, WE ALL WILL FACE THE

VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH. IF YOU HAVE NO SPIRITUAL LIFE, YOU

WILL GET ONE IN A HURRY, IF YOU ARE ALLOWED THE TIME TO GIVE YOUR

HEART TO JESUS. I KNOW TO WHOM MY DAUGHTER HAS GIVEN HER HEART TO

AND WHETHER SHE IS HEALED HERE ON EARTH OR IN HEAVEN.........SHE IS

"HEALED" IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

I TELL YOU FRIENDS THROUGH TEARS AND NAUSEA, IT IS A NEAR IMPOSSIBLE

FEAT TO LET GO OF YOUR CHILD WHEN YOU HAVE NURTURED THEM THROUGH

EVERYTHING AND YOU CAN'T WALK THEM HOME. GOD KNOWS MY HEART AND MY HEART

IS JUST SHATTERED. MY FAITH WILL KEEP IT TOGETHER BUT IT IS NOT ABOUT ME OR MY

DH, OR OUR SON, OR MY SISTER SHERRY.....IT IS ABOUT AMY...AND KEEPING HER PAIN

FREE.

I CAN'T REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE LADY WHO ASK ABOUT SPLENDA BUT AMY HAS

NEVER HAD ANYTHING WITH SPLENDA, NUTRASWEET, OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT BUT

THANK YOU FOR ASKING.

PRAYER REQUESTS: AMY, LEILA, LADY PENNIWIG'S HUSBAND AND SON, SHERRY'S FOOT,

ASHLEY, BECCA, LADY KATHERINE, MARYDON'S EYE ALLERGIES, HAROLD'S BROTHER AND

HAROLD'S SAFETY WHILE TRAVELING, PATRICIA, AUNT JEAN, MONTE, KIPPIE, DENNIS,

JAY AND SUSAN, BOBBY, ROY AND ELISABETH, BARBARA AND ROY WHILE TRAVELING,

DORIS, RICHARD, JAMIE, TAWNA, MIKE, PEGGY, SALLY, KATHY, ROGER, JESS,

SO MANY, MANY PRAYER REQUESTS MY FRIENDS.

PRAISE REPORT......LEILA WILL BE GOING BACK TO WORK THE FIRST OF OCTOBER. SHE CAN

ONLY WORK 4 HOURS A DAY, AND WILL BE ABLE TO KEEP HER INSURANCE. SHE STILL

HAS A SPOT THEY ARE GOING TO CHECK EVERY THREE MONTHS.

QUEEN MOTHER MAMAW'S DAUGHTER RACHEL IS OR HAS GONE BACK TO WORK AND SHE

WAS VERY, VERY ILL.

THANK YOU SWEET JESUS FOR THESE PRAISE REPORTS INCLUDING THE 32 CARDS THAT

CAME TODAY. WE SAW A BEAUTIFUL PICTURE OF LOUIS, THE CAT.....HE WAS AWESOME.

WE/AMY IS A BIG ANIMAL LOVER AND SHE LOVES HEARING ABOUT YOUR PETS. SHE

LOVES BUTTERFLIES, ANGELS, FLOWERS, FUNNY THINGS, CROSSES, ANYTHING...YOU ALL

HAVE DONE A WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL, AWESOME JOB.

THANK YOU...THANK YOU.....THANK YOU..........

YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN

YOU ARE TRULY ANGELS AND GODS' HANDS EXTENDED

ANGEL HUGS

LOVE
