It was a moment where I teetered on, Maybe I should, and Maybe I shouldn't. I settled on, well, I'm going to hit send because Maybe I should. The email I wrote included, "I don't want to overstep my bounds...". After my friend's private post, I responded with a private message, suggesting the Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep Foundation. I had read about the foundation over at Bring the Rain.
From the Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep website: Offering gentle and beautiful photography services in a compassionate and sensitive manner is the heart of this organization. Professional photographers are available nationwide, absolutely free to these families.
Mama posted today. She received my email before she left the hospital yesterday, late afternoon. She contacted a photographer, and he rearranged his schedule to meet the parents, the two boys, and baby girl at the hospital last night. They had a precious photography session of their family of five. Baby girl passed away this morning, as mama said, "[we] stayed with her the whole night and until she slipped away to be with Jesus."

ReplyDeleteWow, what a story. The You Tube story brought tears to my eyes. You are truly a great friend to Mama and her family for suggesting the pictures. I know that they will treasure those pictures in years to come.
