My heart aches

Through my job I have come to know a wonderful family. They are truly inspirational - their love for each other and for God never ceases to amaze me. Their sweet daughter has been diagnosed with a rare genetic disease and now is in her final time here on earth. I cannot even imagine the pain that this poor family is going though. Watching their precious daughter and sister crumble before their eyes and now to be on the verge of losing her. Their love and compassion is so amazing as is their faith. I have a lot to learn from them and feel so blessed to be a witness to the strength and faith that they have. May God wrap his loving arms around them and offer them peace and comfort in this trying time. Rest sweet Emma, greater things lie ahead.
