Sometimes, You Can't Make Lemonade Out Of Lemons
I just read a link that a friend on Facebook shared: Conversations Nobody Should Ever Have
As I'm reading I'm realizing that a Mother is telling her little girl that she is dying. Her tumors are back and that means she will meet Jesus soon.
Holy crap! How does someone do that and not lose it? How do you tell your little girl that she is dying? This little one is four. Then she had to tell her 6 year old Daughter that her Sister is dying. How do they wrap their heads around that?
I am in awe of this Mom telling her the best way she could. I suppose that is they way to explain it. You really can't tell a 4 year old that she is dying. Maybe the best way to say it is to say you will meet Jesus soon.
My son is healthy. I can't imagine how it must feel knowing that your child is dying. Knowing that they will not be with you for long. Thinking that it's not fair.
I know this isn't the best subject to write about but it just broke my heart. Makes you know how just lucky you are.
The next time I'm having a "bad" day, I will think of this Mom and my day won't be so bad after all. And, my Son is going to start getting extra hugs whether he likes it or not.
