God whispered ever so softly in my ear 3 days ago that HE was watching over her just like he had done so over me during my life. I was instantly relieved and at peace knowing that everything would work out according to HIS plan. Praise God Almighty - she has now been breathing on her own for the past 36 hrs and has been removed from life support. We have a long road ahead but, what a comfort to know that the great physician [God] is with us every step of the way.

Blessings to you all,
