I am so glad that your Mommy and Daddy know they will meet up with you in heaven one day. That is the wonderful gift of Salvation. Thank you for sharing your stories with even someone like me who is praying for little Joshua to endure and for God to sustain him as He has thus far.

God knew long before that we would be put into each other's lives and Thank the Lord for doing that! You have been a great friend and someone that I see so much hope and faith in!

Being a heart mom has definitely increased my faith and certainly helped me to walk by faith more than I ever have. I still do my best to take each day for all it's worth - not knowing if it'll be our last one together as a family. Any time Ethan oversleeps, I have a split-second panic wondering if he's alright or if he's breathed his last breath. Your family continues to be in my prayers.<BR/><BR/>Heart Hugs,<BR/><BR/>Julie MilesJulie Mileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03813462407485665450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6015698960813304832.post-52245831780152701022009-01-07T11:37:00.000-05:002009-01-07T11:37:00.000-05:00Dear Rebecca,I don't think I have ever posted befo...Dear Rebecca,<BR/><BR/>I don't think I have ever posted before...I am a friend of Suzie Dean's and have followed your journey with Annabelle since the day Suzie told me about Lindsay's HLHS and sent me home to read your blog. She said you were literally keeping her sane and giving her hope. I haven't missed a post since. Why haven't I posted? I guess because it seems so presumptuous when I am a stranger...I don't REALLY know you.<BR/><BR/>But your message today is so moving and inspiring that I just needed to tell you thank-you. The description of the meeting in your living room about your mom's cancer so resonated with me...we had a meeting like that around the kitchen table (which I now have) about my dad's cancer and I can still remember every moment of the meeting, 27 yrs ago, complete with what everyone was wearing! It is something that never leaves you, but helps shape who you are. Obviously, that moment for you helped prepare you for having, and losing, Annabelle...your mom is up in heaven looking down with Annabelle, so incredibly proud of who you have become. This blog has become a ministry and I hope you never stop writing. In fact I have often told Suzie, "Rebecca should write a book"...you are a beautiful writer and your message of hope and survival and FAITH are life-altering. I am sobbing right now, as is Suzie is if she is reading your post today, because your faith in the face of enormous loss is inspiring, while wrenching. I want to reach out from Michigan and hold you in my arms and let you cry it out on a bad day. I feel like you are one of my daughters (I only have one, but Suzie and a couple of others are mine too) and I just feel a need to let you know how you have touched a total stranger.<BR/><BR/>What a blessing you and all the heart moms are to each other...you have created a family that is vital and real... and God loves all of you. I pray for you daily,<BR/><BR/>Heart Hugs, ElaineElainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06846150919975215637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6015698960813304832.post-43993458676506443262009-01-07T11:12:00.000-05:002009-01-07T11:12:00.000-05:00So blessed reading what God is teaching you that a...So blessed reading what God is teaching you that applies to all of us!
