- Why I'm choosing to give:
- To open that world inside of me, I have been greving since July 2nd 2007 when I lost my 22 year old daughter, life has seemed pretty lost without her in it. Got woke up with a phone call every parent would regret to get, it was July 1st, 2007 3am in morning, I had lost the call but saw who called so I called back knowing it had to be bad if we were getting a call at that time, her Fiancee answered saying Alina is in the Hospital and you need to come now, he didn't tell me anymore, and then we get a call early from the Doctor telling us, your daughter passed away from Brain Aneurysm, she is on life support, my heart sank and I kept asking are you sure PLEASE NO! Had this really happened, all the way there, I prayed and prayed. BUT She was gone, we didn't even get that chance, just through my Dreams and my heart, everyday is hard as the next. Yes things like giving gets me to feeling better, I have always Love giving! I am sure everyone has thought what if, because I did when I would see people lose their children, and it even hit close to home My sister also Lost her youngest son as well, he was only 13. I would say many times Please guard my family, and thinking I could never handle that , they would have to put me in a crazy place, now how am I holding on by the grace that is for sure! Being Blessed by others too. Now I write everything down about her like writing a book of her life so it is not lost, and My middle daughter made a tattoo of Alina's last signature Looks like this " a heart always Alina" she had done this for my Mother's day, when People see it they get touched about the reason behind it and it being made from my middle daughter! Want to say; Alina lived her life as if she knew it was short, and people would say what an old soul, man she had me beat as far as such a beautiful soul, right along with my Mother! They say people make their loved ones saints when they pass, well we all knew that Alina was special and everyone that talks about her has everything great to say, so I am very Happy she was in my life for that special time we had together! Noone can take that away from me...I say never let times slip away with your family members because you never know when it will hit and it could be to late. I hear people complain about family members and think OMG that is time lost, wishing I could say; Please dont do that, Love each other and give all your time to everyone you can, does it really matter some of the reasons why, can you get over those bad feelings that are just causing you pain and not being able to be with each other "LOVE NOW"!
