| My Little Buddy
Morning,
On Tuesday when I saw Drew I knew that things weren't good. I am house sitting just down the road from his house, and at 10 pm last night the phone rang. It was for the people that live here. The caller explained that all of the members of the church received an email stating that Drew was dying, and would they please hold a vigil at the church and keep the lights on.
I slept well. I know that it's his time. His little body is so tired. But I am crying.
When I saw him on Tuesday, I asked him how he was. As always, no complaints. " HI, I am just having a bad morning."
I wish that I had his courage, his strength, his wisdom, and his faith. For a child of 15 he is so much older than his years. His parents have given him a wonderful life, filled with love, faith, and all the things that a child could want.
It will be hard to go back there. Harder yet to face his parents.
Please excuse my rambles, my thoughts are jumbled.
I ask that all of you say a special prayer for my little buddy that his flight to heaven is swift, and that he sits at the right hand of god. He has earned it. He is truly an angle.
HUgs,
Sid
