Abounding Joy - Praying For Gracie

Praying For Gracie

*Update Below*

I came across this (hat tip: Carmon) and followed it to the baby Gracie's site. Tuesday's entry says this:

TUESDAY, MARCH 21, 2006 02:59 PM, CST

Gracie was not able to come off of ECMO today ... she crashed shortly after the attempt. Gracie will get one more chance on Thursday when they will pull her off life support for the final time ...

We are in a bit of shock, but we have to prepare ourselves and say goodbye to Gracie in these final two days that we might have left with her ... the thought is too unbearable ...

Today is, obviously, the Thursday they are referring to. Please pray for this young family (Gracie is their first child) through this.

UPDATE

Gracie's journal was updated this afternoon.

THURSDAY, MARCH 23, 2006 12:24 PM, CST

While her mommy and daddy were holding her, Gracie peacefully passed into the Lord's presence at 12 PM today.

Oh, how my heart hurts for this family! Please continue to include them in your prayers and consider leaving them a note via their site's guestbook or email.

So tragic...

Posted by Alice

You might remember last year when I made prayer clothes and such. I had a whole list of sick kids/babies I did things for and was praying for that had caringbridge sites. All but three are dead now. :-( And one of those three will not be with us much longer, probably. Life can be so cruel sometimes.
