Then he called 911. She was rushed to the hospal, had to be incobated w a tube down oto her stomach, a machine 'breathed" for her. this was her 2nd time doing this, she did it once when she was 16, her boyfriend was breaking up w her, and she took alot of her antidepressant meds. Anyway, she did pull thru .. We work together in a nursing home, she is a CNA, me, in dietary... She is off for 2 weeks, and me struggeling w the outpouring of love from my, and her coworkers and not telling anyone. Today, her cousin had her baby girl baptized and my daughter was named the God mother. My daughter held her head high, and attended w her husband, sat w us as a family. We dont go to church regulary, but she was brought up in the faith as a child... I am so blessed that in Gods place, she was here, and present, and so loved. i definately felt the power of God today...had tears rolling down my cheeks, and took communion. Thank u for letting me tell my story.
