Sometimes You Simply Can't Help But Ask WHY?

Dear, dear Mandy.....My heart is so full of emotion thinking about you right now. Andrea just called and told me the news about your husband. Here you are, only in your early 30's..... suffered watching your 5 year old daughter go through cancer treatments, hospital stays and then losing your young daughter about 4 or 5 years ago. During that time you also had a very sick young son. We wondered when we would see you smile again. Then it happened. You seemed to come to terms with it and started moving forward. About a year and half later due to some sick-minded person your purse was stolen. The keys to your truck and house were in it along with information to where you lived. Your truck was taken from your driveway and later found in terrible shape. Thank goodness you were able to change the locks on your house before they also got into it.....you had many issues to deal with. You dealt with them. You focused on your boys...then you got pregnant...miscarried more than once. Last year you gave birth to a beautiful baby girl that you wanted so badly. Things were truly looking up! I saw you just a couple of weeks ago at church. You appeared so happy sitting there with Kevin and the kids. Now this. It is so hard to believe that your husband died this morning from cardiac arrest. I can't begin to imagine what you are going through. Dear sweet, faithful Mandy....my heart and prayers are with you.
