Happy Thanksgiving everyone,

Our latest update from Paula relates the ever more saddening news that Sarah’s vital signs have become erratic and her breathing labored. It appears she will soon be reunited with her mother and father and brother, Bob.

The family extends their grateful thanks for the huge outpouring of prayers, support and kindness, which Paula says is a great comfort.

She also adds, “On this special day, we give thanks for all that Sarah has accomplished in her life. She touched so many with her work, her art, and her gentle, caring nature. All of us who know and love her will carry her in our hearts forever.”

Ever-faithful FReeper family, I will carry you in mine. Thank you.

floralamiss

Lord be near Sarah in the hour of her passage.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.

I’ve been quiet all day floralamiss. Reflecting now, I cannot understand these things or will I attempt to. I only know that G-d is merciful. I’m helpless here and saddened to a degree that I thank Him more than ever today.

You see, I was spared last year and this year from kidney failure and hip necrosis. Why me? How can I question G-d and His Divine Mercy?

So very sad and yet comforted by the fact that all of these people are faithful servants.

May G-d Bless you and their entire family.

Have to stop now. Overwhelmed...

Floralamiss, I had each member say what they were thankful for before eating our dinner tonight. I said I was thankful for being introduced to Sarah... a beautiful, strong woman with a loving family who was soon to be with God. I pray that she is comfortable and will soon be free of any pain or worry. Soon, she will be with Our Lord and joyfully reunited with her Mother, Father and brother, Bob. Thank you for sharing her life, her joy, her hopes and dreams, and her last moments with us. Even in Sarah’s darkest hour, she gave a gift to FR. I mourn with her family even though I am miles and miles away. I feel a loss even though we never personally talked or met. God Bless, Floralamiss...

Take comfort in the sure knowledge that your sister will soon be with our Lord God. She will be in a new body and never know pain again.

Your Thanksgiving day was so much the more special then for hundreds of millions around the globe.
You can appreciate deeply what the spirit of thanksgiving means in the words Paula conveyed to you then you wrote in thread #145.
Words often do not come easy when one somehow wanst to offer comfort to a fellow Christian on things as you now are faced with.
So perhaps I will simply ask HIM for HIS very best upon your whole family. HIS best can extend in time... to be far more wonderful then most of HIS subjects have the ability at their best to convey in word or in writing.
You take care floralamiss.
George
