Tears & Memories

Bethanie Nichole Frost
Born: March 29th, 1999
Jesus called her home July 21st, 2000
I was reading Kristy's blog like I do everyday, and of course went to Kelly's Korner to check on her baby girl, when I noticed that she was saddened by the loss of a little girl named Cora. Being curious, I decided to go and check into this little girl. That is when the tears began. For a mother to endure the loss of a child is beyond words!! To watch them be hooked up to the tubes and ventilators and deep within you don't even recognize them. This mother has strength beyond any I have seen. She watched as little Cora went through chemo, she watched as Cora could not eat. Still yet she never turned her un-dying faith from God. Tears just continued to roll down my face when I realized, I have been there. I have set where she is setting. I have watched as they tried with everything they had to save my daughters life. The tubes, the vents, the heart monitors. To have your child leave this world before you. To know that you will not see them grow into young adults, and into a mother, and a wife. This mother who now has to bury her daughter needs our prayers!! We should never, as mothers, take our children for granite. Never think that you can tell them you love them tomorrow, there may not be a tomorrow. Laugh with them, act like a child with them and NEVER under estimate them. Children can and will do things that we don't think is possible. My 16 month old unlocked a door, went down a porch, walked down a path and fell in the pond!! They can do things we don't realize they can do. Go to Kelly's Korner, read about Cora and I ask you to please donate money to the Cora Fund. This is going to build a playground in Cora's name. One last thing, HUG your children and let them know you love them.......we are not promised tomorrow!!!!

  1. I cried too.... so heartbreaking.
    I cannot imagine, and hope and pray that I never have to. I remember hearing about your baby and being so devestated for you. She is such a little beautiful angel.
