Buy a Bow For Ruby

Can you imagine what it would be like to have your 3 month old baby diagnosed with liver failure?

Can you imagine what it would be like to put your tiny baby on the transplant list, hoping and praying that someone else loses their life so that your child can be saved?

Can you imagine what it would be like to be at the mercy of fate/God/whateveryoubelieveasahigherpower and watch your infant child's life slip away from you and not be able to do a single thing about it?

Can you imagine what it would be like to have the spirit whisper to you that your now 7 month old's life here on earth is over, and to allow her to return to her Father in Heaven?

I can't.

But tonight, I can say a prayer for this sweet family.

I can buy a bow for Ruby.

I can give my two children an extra hug, and an extra kiss. Because I still have them. And I will thank my Father in Heaven one more time tonight for the gift they are to my life.

I read her post. My heart is broken. How awful. You are a good friend to her. I can see that.
