Niece with a terminal infection

Thank you for all your prayers and sentiments.

Lauren became dependent on the respirator and medication to stay alive. They almost lost her twice yesterday just trying to get her to and back from the CT scan yesterday.
The doctors explained the gravity of the situation to her parents and they had to make a decision no parent should ever have to make.
They love her SOOOOOOOOO much, but they had to hand her over to God.
Lauren loved rainbows, she was told they would watch for her in them.

There was an extremely nice service in her room while she was surrounded by just a fraction of her loved ones. We all took the time we needed with her and left the room.
They backed off the medication and she went peacefully.

I've noticed that numbers have meaning in the Bible. I don't know what it means yet, but God gathered her up on 7/14/14 at 7:14pm
Her parents were cleaning out the hospital room shortly after they took her, and out of the window they saw a double rainbow.
The whole area saw the double rainbow. Here is a view from target field that was a couple miles away.


I saw a spark of life and hope come back into her parent when they saw it. There was a deep down joy that shown from them knowing she made it and was saying "Hi Mom and Dad, I LOVE YOU!"

We wish we knew why this had to happen. Can only hope that there is some ripple effect from this that causes many great things to happen for people.

The support from ARFCOM has truly been amazing. When these dark time are upon us and see a community of strangers pull together with prayer and gifts, it gave us hope.
Gave us something to look at as a reminder that there are so many people out there that she has touched the hearts of. That maybe she is making a changes in people somehow through this whole experience.

I'm forever grateful to everyone here for all the support.

The funeral will be this week sometime. Thinking there will be a large turn out.
