Hello My Freinds... My Daughter Has Less than 1 Year to Live

Hello to all my fellow ATS'ers! I want to introduce you to my baby....

She was in 1st grade here:



And this is her with her brother at about 14:




And this is her at sweet 16:



And this is her now.... a loving mother of two beautiful children... (Sorry she was in the hospital in this pic)



And her now... still in the hospital btw... but still my baby! She just turned 23



She now has less than a year to live... we don't know how long, any infection now could kill her at any time, so all the doctors are saying is less than 1 year....

I love her so much... and I wanted all you who have been praying for her to meet her.... We are going to make her last days on earth happy... no matter what!

This song is for her

I'm so sorry to hear about this.

I'd ask what the issue is, but I don't want to pry into what is already a very hard thing for you to have discussed with us.

Stay strong friend.

That is a bummer.
I am sorry for my for my lack of ability to convey sympathy, it's just not my strong suite, and I don't want to come across as superficially hollow. It does really suck.

I am also curious as to the situation that is contributing to the less than 1 year life expectancy.

Sending you support and strength. I'm so very sorry to hear your family's situation. There are no words for the love we feel for our children, no matter their ages. Blessings to you all.

Its ok.... She has cancer, it is so very widespread throughout her body now, and there is nothing more than can be done...

Thank you so much... and I thank everyone on ATS who has put up with me throughout the last year when I .... when all this was too much for me emotionally!

So many of you have been great to me! And I thank you all from the bottom of my heart!

Sorry for your loss. That is terrible.

Hopefully it's not ALS. That's a horrible illness.

I wish her the best of luck and hopefully the mind can trump matter for once.

Eta- I just saw it's cancer...I'm so sorry. I know everything happens for a reason (at least I believe this) ...but sometimes we just don't know the reason and it's hard. Stay strong ...

Word's exchanged between strangers on the internet can very often feel superficial .....but please know my genuineness when I say that it is with a very heavy heart that I read about your daughters and families situation.
I wish you all strength, courage and even joy for whatever time lays ahead.
(((hugs)))

If she's anything like her mother then I'm sure she's a caring woman with class.

She is my better... don't let anyone tell you different...

She has always had the biggest heart in the world.... Do you know what she wants before she dies? To know we will all be ok... and have a blowout Christmas for the kids this year...

thats it... that is all she wants... that and to meet Nenothtu's family... his son and his mom... she wants to know I will be ok and am in a good family...

she is beautiful... inside and out

Sorry to hear about this.Both of you will be in my prayers.

My heart goes out to you, your daughter and family. There are times in life when things are too sad, this is one of them. Please know that your ATS family is here by your side. I will pray for your daughter and the family, for courage, strength and a semblence of peace. Sometimes words seem to lack the depth of emotion one wishes to express in times like these. Just know that you are never truly alone and that you are in our hearts and thoughts.

It really puts things into a perspective. Life is short and makes you want to consider everything you do. To be honest I feel like a jack# for still smoking.

Again you have my condolences OpinionatedB. I again wish you guys the best.

I'm very sorry for you and your family, will be in my prayers tonight!

Then you have done a wonderful job as a mother.

I'm so sorry, but... Please look into kombucha tea and the Budwig diet.

They are simple and non invasive.
Just look into it.... And do what you will with it.

Thank you but its weird, because today I am ok. Today, her and I had the talk... if you could call it that. I couldn't do it without tears, which I did not want to have, but I made it through and am happy because today, I gave her back to God..

She told me she was sorry, that she tried to fight, and tried so hard to live... and that she was sorry she failed me...

I told her it was alright, that I was proud of her... so very proud.. and that God loves her so much he is going to take her away from all this to a place near to HIM, where there is perfect peace and joy, a place she will never have pain....

And she asked me if I thought she was good enough, she asked if God would really take her to heaven... and I said YES... that heaven is where she will go, that God loves her so much He wants her near in a place where there is only joy and happiness....

She was always HIS.... and today, I am grateful to Him for blessing me with such a wonderful child... no matter how short the time seems



You all don't have to agree, or believe what I do.... I know most don't... but its ok... its all gonna be ok
