Layla Grace

I went to bed last night with a heavy heart.. The last tweet from @laylagrace did not sound like Layla was doing well. I told my husband that I wondered if Layla would slip away to heaven that night or today. I just had this feeling. I prayed for Layla before I went to bed last night I prayed for peace for this sweet girl.

I could not sleep this morning..I woke up at 6:30 and the first thing I thought of was Layla. I checked Twitter for any updates and there was nothing. So I prayed for Layla and her family like I always do. We had a play date this morning and the whole time we were there I was thinking about Layla and wonderig how she was doing. And I checked Twitter hoping to get an update. We came home from our play date the Chickens played outside it was a normal day. Then I checked Twitter again and there was an update saying that sweet Layla Grace had gone to heaven early this morning.

I sat at my computer and I bawled. And I saw my Twitter stream fill with people expressing their sadness and prayers for Layla and her family. I felt like I was able to grieve with friends over the loss of this precious little girl. I was thankful for that moment.

Layla went to play with the angels early this morning. Rest in peace precious Layla. 11/26/2007 – 3/9/2010

Please pray for this family.. My heart is breaking for them.

Pray for Layla Grace

I just wanted to write a quick post on this precious little girl Layla Grace. I started following her mother Shanna on twitter @laylagrace a couple of months ago. She would give periodic updates on how Layla was doing. But then on January 25th  there was a post on her blog laylagrace.org saying that the doctor told them that Layla who is two only had a couple of months left at best.  I cried when I read this post because all I could think about is how I would feel if this was Boo both girls birthdays are in November and they are both two.  This has really touched me. I can’t even imagine what her mother Shanna and her family are going through.  But even with this diagnosis from the doctors they are not giving up they are fighting hard and praying that God will still perform a miracle for this sweet little girl.

Please pray for Layla and her family especially today Layla’s picc line is not functioning properly (this is how she receives her morphine) so they are at the hospital if they can’t get it to work then they will have to perform another surgery and since her body is so weak any surgery with anesthesia could end badly.  So as you go about your day please pray for a miracle, pray for complete healing for Layla. God is able to do this but if he chooses not to then please pray for her family during this very difficult time that He will give them comfort and strength.  I know I am.
