One year ago...

One year ago ... I woke up in Barnes Jewish hospital with a positive attitude and with all the fight I needed to get through my daughter's illness.  Later that day the fight was sucked right out of me as I learned just how sick Paige really was.

One year ago ... I sat in a room full of doctors as they sat there and told my husband and I that my daughter's many illnesses were not compatible to life.

One year ago ... I watched the hearts of those same doctors break right along with mine as we came to terms that Paige's life with us was coming to an end.

One year ago ... my husband and I had to make the hardest decision of our lives.  We knew we had to let Paige go to Jesus.

One year ago ... family and friends poured into Children's Hospital to meet our precious baby girl.

One year ago ... Pat and I sat up all night with our little angel knowing it would be the last night we had her here with us.

One year ago ... was the last full day Paige had on this earth.

One year ago ... will haunt me forever.

One year ago ... seems like yesterday.

  2. Marissa,
    You and Pat are so brave. Know that God has you in his arms right now and his comfort is very real.
