Yesterday was a sad day for James and I as we went to visit James' sister in a hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio. We received a call from my in-laws on Saturday that April, his sister, was very ill and may not live much longer. The attending physician wanted to meet with the family to discuss what is going on with April, and actions to be taken in the possible near future. With many tears his family gathered in a little room together and listened to the doctor's summary of April's condition. According to the doctor she has multiple infections, her breathing is very labored, her heart rate is very high, and has a soaring fever at times. So far she is not responding at all to the strongest and best antibiotics being pumped into her for about two weeks now. Although we are so saddened to see April is such a serious and grim condition, we know she is ready to meet Jesus, for you see, she is both mentally and physically handicapped. She has a sure hope of Heaven, where she will see Jesus face to face, and be free from all of her ailments and handicaps.
