All day today I thought about all the birthdays she had as a child, teen and until she died. When she was 7 years old she asked me for a pizza party and roller town. I managed to do it. She invited her friends and then came home to tell me she told them it would be a slumber party. I had planned on just the pizza party and roller town but o.k. it would be a slumber party too. All I wanted was for her to know how much I loved her, how much we all loved her and would do anything to make her birthday the best for her.
It was raining very hard on her last birthday of 2008 and so I sent her five birthday cards and promised her as soon as the weather was better that I would go see her. She was weak and in pain as she lay on her bed when we talked on the phone. There was nothing I could do. I could not take her pain away and I could not be there due to the weather. Yes, I did pray. I prayed with all my might to God asking him to take her pain away. I cried that night and didn't hardly sleep just thinking of her. Next day, the weather was good and I headed to her home in Thousand Oaks, California.
She called me as I was driving over and said to me, "Ma, last night my pain went away suddenly and I slept so good."
PRAISE GOD.
