its been so long since ive been on here i almost forgot my password.. you know you should listen to what people say closely, because you never know when they wont have the chance anymore. My cousin Michelle made the comment to me at the beach last week that when i grew up I would be her nurse someday. Today i got the call at 6 this morning that my terminally ill cousin was not doing well. And in my heart i knew that i would be by her bed all day today. I stood by her with my blood pressure cuff and stethoscope watching for any changes.. gave her water through a syringe.. kept her warm.. i was holding her when she died.. and hospice asked me to help clean her.. so i gave her a bath in her fav. soap. and put on her fav. lotion.. i put on all her jewlry, made sure she had Leslie's necklace on and each ring on the right finger. and make up and i made sure that i put her 3 lip glosses on in the right order.. cause Lord knows she wouldnt have it any other way.. i got her dressed and ready for the viewing.. And I knew at that moment that she would be happy, happy that I did that for her because not only did she tell me what order the lip glosses went on but i watched the whole week at the beach Some things might just be said at random like her little comment, but when it came time to step up I knew that is what she wanted. She knew. After the viewing, after the funeral home came and got her, I took the sheets off the bed and placed the pillows back on the bed like Michelle liked. I placed her bears infront of the pillows and her Bible and cross by the bears. and laid pictures out on the bed. Which helped Granny, because I dont know how she could ever have the strength to come back in that room. I have been so blessed to be surrounded by such good people. I couldnt ask for better, and I think you all. And I think God because without him I would have never gotten my strength. Im going to bed now its been a long day. I love and thank each and every one of you. You all are so special. I love you all!!! I LOVE YOU SISSY.. AND i know you with God now. We will see you in Heaven one day!! and you remember YOU ARE NEVER ALONE. and you never will be, Your with God now and He will never leave you. Thanks brittany clark |
