HC ((((evaclear04))))?
HC I know where you're coming from?
HC I watched my grandmother suffer the last 10 months of her life in the hospital...literally never being discharged?
HC the day she died was the longest and most painful day of my life?
HC it hurt even more to watch my grandfather grieve?
HC they had been married 53 years?
HC after her death, my grandfather received a bill of over 500K for her hospital stay?
HC he knew he wouldn't be able to ever pay it off and in addition to grieving, was stressed about this bill?
HC when my grandfather called the hospital to make the arrangements the administrator said my grandmother was an inspiration to the staff?
HC he said that everyone at the hospital grew to know and love my grandmother?
HC they also told us we should realize how much my grandmother loved us, because she should have died when she got there?
HC God knew I and my family likely couldn't have bared her sudden death so he allowed us time to prepare?
HC we all know God doesn't put more on us that we can bare?
HC the hospital said "NO CHARGE" and wiped the slate clean?
HC I can almost cry just thinking about it?
HC I just had a baby and see my grandmother in him EVERYDAY?!
HC I say all of that to say God knows your pain and has ways of bringing you comfort...just lean on HIM?
HC I know it's cliche' but earth TRULY has no sorrow that heaven can not heal?
HC you should spend your mom's birthday WITH her...in your thoughts and in your heart?
HC I'm interceding for you in prayer as we speak?
HC make sure you also pray to HIM and ask him to supply you with all you need to make it through this time?
HC to borrow a phrase from "Liquid Prayer" by Natalie Wilson and SOP Chorale - "Hold On...know that everytime you cry HE'S healing you inside"?
