When you're down to nothing, God is up to something."
This is beautiful! Try not to cry.
She jumped up as soon as she saw the surgeon come out of the
operating room. She said: "How is my little boy ? Is he going to be
all right ? When can I see him ?"
The surgeon said, "I'm sorry. We did all we could, but your boy
didn't make it."
Sally said, "Why do little children get cancer ? Doesn't God care
any more ? Where were you, God, when my son needed you ?"
The surgeon asked, "Would you like some time alone with your son ?
One of the nurses will be out in a few minutes, before he's
transported to the university."
Sally asked the nurse to stay with her while she said good bye to
son. She ran her fingers lovingly through his thick red curly hair.
"Would you like a lock of his hair ?" the nurse asked.
Sally nodded yes. The nurse cut a lock of the boy's hair, put it in
a plastic bag and handed it to Sally.
The mother said, "It was Jimmy's idea to donate his body to the
University for Study. He said it might help somebody else. "I said
no at first, but Jimmy said, 'Mom, I won't be using it after I die.
Maybe it will help some other little boy spend one more day with his
Mom." She went on, "My Jimmy had a heart of gold. Always thinking of
someone else. Always wanting to help others if he could."
Sally walked out of Children's Mercy Hospital for the last time,
after spending most of the last six months there. She put the bag
with Jimmy's belongings on the seat beside her in the car.
The drive home was difficult. It was even harder to enter the empty
house. She carried Jimmy's belongings, and the plastic bag with the
lock of his hair to her son's room.
She started placing the model cars and other personal things back in
his room exactly where he had always kept them. She laid down across
his bed and, hugging his pillow, cried herself to sleep.
It was around midnight when Sally awoke. Laying beside her on the
bed was a folded letter. The letter said:
"Dear Mom,
I know you're going to miss me; but don't think that I
will ever forget you, or stop loving you, just 'cause I'm not around
to say "I Love You". I will always love you, Mom, even more with
each day. Someday we will see each other again. Until then, if you
want to adopt a little boy so you won't be so lonely, that's okay
with me. He can have my room and old stuff to play with. But, if you
decide to get a girl instead, she probably wouldn't like the same
things us boys do. You'll have to buy her dolls and stuff girls
like and then there's the feminine hygeine products and you'll probably want to
slap her on the pill when she's fourteen like you did with Sally.
Don't be sad thinking about me. This really is a
neat place. Grandma and Grandpa met me as soon as I got here and
showed me around some, but it will take a long time to see
everything cause I haven't grown my wings yet, and Grandpa's only up here for weekends.
He lives somewhere below but it must be nice too cause he has a great tan.
The angels are so cool. I love to watch them fly. And,
you know what? Jesus doesn't look like any of his pictures. I told him he better
send an artist down cause everyone's got it wrong.
Jesus himself took me to see GOD ! And guess what, Mom ? I got to sit on God's knee and talk to Him, like I was somebody important. Can you imagine? I sure couldn't. I told Him that I
wanted to write you a letter, to tell you good bye and everything.
But I already knew that wasn't allowed. Well, you know what Mom ?
God said he can change the rules whenever he wants so he handed me some paper and His own personal pen to write you this
letter. I think Gabriel is the name of the angel who is going to
drop this letter off to you, either that or Fred. God said for me to give you the answer
to one of the questions you asked Him 'Where was He when I needed
him ?' "God said He was in the same place, right here eating lunch.
Oh, by the way, Mom, no one else can see what I've
written except you. Too everyone else this is just a blank piece of
paper. Isn't that cool? Apparently they use this ink for alot of contracts and stuff too. I have to give God His pen back now. He
needs it to write some more names in his naughty or nice Book of Life.Tonight I get to sit at the table with Jesus for supper. I'm
sure the food will be great. Elvis is cooking. H
I have to go now. I'll be seeing you real soon
