my heart breaks.

A couple of years ago, I joined an online group for Mommies, there I met a girl named Jami. She has become one of my dearest friends. Her husband, Kameron has had a long battle with lupus. Yesterday, he lost the battle.

((Kason, age 2, with daddy))


My heart is broken. I am so sad that she will have to live her life without Kam and that Kason will only remember a little bit about his daddy. My testimony has truly been shook by this story. During our family prayer (well brian and my prayer) every night I prayed for him and for their family. I prayed for a miracle. Its always sad when it feels like Heavenly Father says No. I don't get it.... =[ After I heard the news I fell to my knees and now had to pray for Heavenly Father to give Jami a sense of peace and hope. That is still my prayer today as I try to figure out the best way to help her. I wish I could just hop on a plane to AZ. :'(


"I know I'm praying for much to much
but could you send back
the only man she loved
I know you don't do it usually
but dear lord she's dyin
to dance with [her best friend] again" -l.v.


Jami,
I want you to know that through making and keeping your temple covenants that your family is eternal. Kameron can now take even better care of your family. He is anxiously waiting your and Kason's arrival. It might seem like a long time to us, but I bet it doesn't seem as long on the other side. I am beyond sure that Kameron is SO PROUD of you!
Please please please let me know if I can do anything for you. Even if you want to just call and cry. I love you and Kason.
Holly

I'm so sad for her. I know God has reasons that we don't understand now but it's still very hard.
