My heart is broken....

Faith Hope passed away. I really am heartbroken. For the last 93 days, she fought the battle that everyone said could not be won. She wasn't supposed to live more than a few minutes. She lived for 3 wonderful months. She brought joy to this fumbling world.

There is a song by a christian music artist, Twila Paris. It's called "Visitor from Heaven". This is what Faith was....an angel visiting from heaven.


A visitor from Heaven
If only for a while
A gift of love to be returned
We think of you and smile

A visitor from Heaven
Accompanied by grace
Reminding of a better love
And of a better place

With aching hearts and empty arms
We send you with a name
It hurts so much to let you go
But we're so glad you came
We're so glad you came

A visitor from Heaven
If only for a day
We thank Him for the time He gave
And now it's time to say
We trust you to the Father's love
And to His tender care
Held in the everlasting arms
And we're so glad you're there
We're so glad you're there

With breaking hearts and open hands
We send you with a name
It hurts so much to let you go
But we're so glad you came
We're so glad you came
Rest in peace, Faith. We will see you again.

What an incredible story! Faith was a blessing and she was blessed to have such a wonderful Mom. Imagine the joy both will have when they are reunited someday.
