UPDATE ON MY BELOVED AMY DAWN

I WILL BE BRIEF. THURSDAY AFTERNOON AMY SLIPPED INTO A COMA.

SHE DID SQUEEZE MY HAND, MY MOTHERS' AND HER BFF LEILA'S HAND.

EARLY THURSDAY MORNING SHE WAS WILD WITH PAIN AND KEPT CLAWING

MY ARM AND SAYING, "COME ON!"

I KEPT ASKING, "WHERE ARE WE GOING?"

I KEPT ASKING IF WE WERE GOING TO TAKE A RIDE ON THE MAGICAL

PINK BIKE, ERIN PAINTED FOR US FROM

http://thepaintedgarden.net

SHE KEPT PULLING ALL HER COVERS OFF AND TRYING TO SWING HER

LEGS OUT OF BED. AND BRUISING, MOTTLING STARTED EVERY WHERE.

WE HAVE HAD THE SWEET HOSPICE NURSE AT THE HOUSE A LOT.

HER O2 SATS ARE RUNNING 76 - 85 AND THAT IS VERY LOW FOR

SOMEONE WITH A TRACH. ALL WE CAN DO IS KISS HER, KEEP HER COMFORTABLE,

KEEP HER PAIN FREE, TALK TO HER, AND KEEP CHRISTIAN MUSIC PLAYING

THROUGH THE HOUSE AS WE PRAY AND CRY.

I SAY, NEVER, EVER, EVER GROW WEARY OF DOING AND BEING PRESENT AT

ALL YOUR CHILDREN'S ACTIVITIES, DANCE LESSONS.....I ATTENDED SO MANY SOCCER

PRACTICES AND DRAMA LESSONS WITH RICHIE, I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO

WHEN HE WENT AWAY TO COLLEGE. I LOVED BEING A MOTHER AND ALL

THE PTA MEETINGS AND PROJECTS.

WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS AND OUR LOVED ONES CAN BE GONE

IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE.

PLEASE HUG YOUR LOVED ONES A LITTLE TIGHTER AND TELL THEM HOW

MUCH YOU LOVE THEM. CALL A CHERISHED FRIEND AND MOST OF ALL CALL

UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD.....MAKE SURE YOU ARE RIGHT WITH JESUS, AS

THIS LIFE IS SO TEMPORAL. WE ENTER THIS WORLD WITH NOTHING, HELPLESS

AND CRYING....WE LEAVE THIS WORLD TAKING NO EARTHLY POSSESION'S EXCEPT

ETERNAL LIFE....AND IT IS UP TO US WHERE WE SPEND ETERNAL LIFE.

JOHN 3: 16

I COULD NOT CONTAIN MY GRIEF IF I WAS NOT ASSURED I WILL SEE MY

BELOVED AMY AGAIN, WHEN THE LORD CALLS HER HOME.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED PRAYERS.

TODAY WHEN YOU COMMENT, TELL ME ABOUT THE FUNNIEST THING THAT EVER

HAPPENED TO YOU AND I WILL TELL AMY ALL ABOUT YOUR RESPONSES.

SHE ALWAYS LOVED TO LAUGH. I ALSO SHARED WITH RICHIE THAT YOU

ALL WERE PRAYING FOR HIM. HE IS PHYSICALLY SICK...HIS WIFE GOT SICK FIRST

AND HE CAUGHT IT BUT HIS BODY IS ALL RUN DOWN.
