judy:
Thank you Dave, you gave me an absolute(got to work both ways in one sentence) (my silly method of figuring truth sometimes) At this age I have been through many, many deaths but never the death of a child. He, Chase, was the only child of my son. My son, Michael, raised him by himself which was difficult because the boy had Auspergers Syndrom. Two months later, Michael sent a distress message implicating he couldn't live without his son. The person called the police, and did they ever show up!!! 10 squad cars, an ambulance and taser guns which they used on my son 3 times because when they burst into the house (it was proven Michael had earphones on) and jumped on his back, Michael threw one officer down. 7, seven, months in jail and Michael wouldn't plea. He was aquitted by a jury. Now the lawyers. At the same time my oldest daughter, Theresa, came down with one of the rarest forms of cancer known and spent 7 months of round the clock therapy. 3 yrs, now, cancer free. Not me though, I have leukemia which Harvard wants to do a study on my daughter and myself.  I just kept putting one foot in front of the other, hoping. God took one, He gave me one back.
Probably way too much info but sometimes this talking helps, still trying to take it all in. I think this might be closure now. Thank you so much, judy

Hi Judy, my heart breaks for you and your family. I pray that you will find peace knowing that God is in control of all. I know how hard it is to hold on to hope when so much trouble amd heartache is surrounding you. May God bless and comfort you through it all.

     with a loving heart,
       virginia miller 

judy:
Virginia, thank you. I have to believe, well, not pre-ordained but God knew before anything about whatever would be. Just knowing He knows and cares is the greatest comfort to me. People are amazed at how I hold up but I always tell them, "you have to know there is a God because I am still standing" By nature I am a softy but believe me when I say the Lord is pure steel. Thanks so much, I was drawn back here because I needed others and am so grateful I ever found this site in the first place.  judy

repottinger:
I’m so very sorry about all of these extreme problems that are hitting you practically all at once, Judy. Please know that I definitely, completely agree with Dave and Virginia—that your prayers didn’t contribute to your grandson’s tragic death, as God knew that it would occur long before it happened (as He does with all other things). I will be sure to pray for God to give you and your family guidance, comfort, peace, and deliverance (if it in His will) in the face of these almost unimaginable troubles.
Your brother in Christ,
Randy

Judy I am so sorry you have had to endure so much tragedy. I am constantly amazed at how much a person is able to suffer and still be able to get up in the morning. It can only be God.
