I saw it referenced on Challies.com. I was in the room with my daughter when she delivered my first grandchild. What a tremendous blessing that was. A few years later that daughter was with me when we held my husband as he stepped into Heaven after a 4 year battle with colon cancer. That is now the second leading cause of cancer in the U.S. His last words on earth were to me, "I Love You." God answered so many prayers that four years now we still praise His Holy Name for mercy and grace. Thank you for this article. I saw it referenced on Challies.com.

I was present when my mother died of cancer. She woke up from a 6 day coma, as the cancer had spread to her brain causing severe seizures. The last seizure was more than her cancer ravished body could take. Yet, the Lord saw it that she would awake and be lucid for a few minutes before He took her to her eternal home. She knew she was dying and knew where she was going, as she told me that He was there waiting for her. What a beautiful morning that was as she said her final goodbyes and breathed her last here on earth. It was peaceful, beautiful and left me with so much hope. This happened 24 years ago and it is a memory that has changed me. This past December, I was privileged to be just outside the door as my eldest daughter, accompanied by her loving husband, brought my first granddaughter to the world. Hearing the last sounds of pain from my daughter as the delivery progressed rendered me totally helpless. But Christ was also in that birthing room giving us that beautiful hope... her name is Valene Noelle Gammo. May the Lord Almighty be praised forever! What a great and insightful post.
