Let your words
say nothing but thanks.
Let your heart
beats nothing but love.

In response to Daily Post: Voice
*My heart is currently badly broken by the death of Courageous Caitie. She is a 3-year old Filipina who has been diagnosed with a very rare type of blood cancer. Her family flew from the Philippines to Singapore to have a concrete diagnosis, as no local doctors were able to identify her illness.
I have been following her story. Her parents’ faith is admirable amid the pain they are going through. But above all, I am in awe of Caitie’s courage. She is tough for a three-year old kid.
Now ,she is on God’s loving arms. No more pain. But my heart is still breaking, especially for her mom.
I can never grasp how painful it is to lose a kid you have reared for nine months. I can never ever understand that.
All I can offer now is prayers.
Please offer some for them, too?
Thank you!
❤
This is sad and painful. I cannot understand it either. I pray for the little girl’s safe passage and for strength to the family. May God bless her soul

There is poetry in the verse and everything else you say. I will offer prayers along with many others praying. Caitie’s death is awful, just as her family’s faith is admirable. Thank you for telling us and asking us to lay a blanket or prayer over everyone.

oh dear, that is terrible. I’ll pray for her family. No parent should ever lose a child. It almost broke my mother when my sister died. I cannot imagine the pain of her parents.

Yeah. That is true. I heard from someone, a survival trainee, that the natural cycle of death is that father dies first, then the mom, then the kids. That’s why accepting child’s death is just beyond any pain.

That’s a heartbreaking story. You see real courage and strength, when a 3-year-old can battle with cancer. I think though she is in the best place she can be now, God called her home at exactly the right time, even though it pains her family. 🙏🏻
