Mom found out on Jan 10th that she had cancer. It was a fast moving, aggressive form and she decided against chemo. She told us, "I dont want to get sick from chemo and I dont want to be burned with radiation, so Im gonna let God handle it." In doing so, our Heavenly Father answered our prayers in letting her just fall into a deep sleep, and giving all of us time to say our goodbyes and tell her how much we loved her. She could still hear us. When the time came, she went so peacefully, and the sun shone brightly in through her window as if God were smiling on all of us. I thought of one of her favorite songs, "The Sun's Coming Up In The Morning." God really gave us a gift that day, and all through our lives, in our Mother. I love you mama, and we will meet again on that golden shore, someday soon!!
