R.I.P Elisha


Z-Rockers I don't normally get too personal, but I just felt like sharing this with you, only because I think it will make you think more seriously about decisions you make in this life, and possibly make you appreciate life a little more I know it has me. Meet Elisha she's my 15 year old little cousin, she died Thursday June 19, 2008 at 2:30 in the morning. She was diagnosed with liver cancer just a few months ago and now she's gone. I remember the phone call that she wasn't feeling well and they were taking her to the hospital, with pain in her stomach, it seems like it was all down hill from that point on. I can't imagine going from a healthy, happy, 15 year old to incredibly ill and in and out of hospitals.

I attended her funeral Saturday June 21st at 1pm. It was terrifying to see her lying there in that coffin, 15 year old's don't die of cancer...at least that's what I thought, but guess what they do, and Elisha proved that. I know that all things happen for a reason and trust me, I believe very strongly in our heavenly father but man it's hard to see the plan...I guess it's cause I'm human, she was a good girl too, not a wild child, she was meek and mild, polite and kind hearted,
she was an angel on Earth, I guess she just needed to go be the Heavenly Angel like I knew she always was.

Pray daily, tell the ones you love you love them, smile at a stranger, laugh as loud as you can, give out hugs like their candy, turn the other cheek more often than not, and thank God you made it past 15....15 is just too young!

Rest In Peace Elisha, you will always be on my mind, and in my heart, I love you.

God Bless
