Kristi, you’re killing me with the story of your Mama and the profound impact this message will have on our world! So many don’t believe in Jesus Christ, but it doesn’t make Him go away or not exist! I often use gravity as an example…you can’t see it, you might not believe it exists. But jump off a 10 story building and all the way to earth you can say,” I don’t believe in gravity” and the laws of nature will prove you wrong every time! Much is the same either way our Jesus! He created the forces of nature and He is the ultimate power, so I am so grateful that your Mama recognized and represented Him beautifully while she was here! You are touching lives profoundly, Kristi! Your Mama would be so proud!

Kristi, my heart has been drawn to your journey with your Mom from the first time I read one of your entries. I see your Mom in you as you go through all you have done for her. What a heritage. I would love to purchase your book when it is complete.

You have asked for edit suggestions and I would like to offer one. In your account of Jesus life you would want to finish His story. He arose to life again and in that He was victorious over sin and death. Because of that your Mom can be experiencing eternal life in that wonderful place He has prepared for her. He returned to his Father in Heaven to prepare for us too. All we need to do is believe that by faith. To me it’s the only part missing in a wonderful story of your Mom and her legacy you have captured. Please let me know where your book will be sold. 💕

I pray for Gods blessing on you and your family.

Oh yes!! The Hope of Jesus is that He came back to life!

He invited us all to choose Him and experience eternal life too, and Kristi’s mom is now enjoying that! I so look forward to meeting her one day!! Praise God!

“My mom was not perfect, but she did her best to be good.”

Kristi, maybe true, but, I know she was perfect for you.

Suggestion: your first sentence is “my mom‘s breathing had changed. “. To me the story should begin with the time of day, the weather, and what caused her breathing to change.

Thank you. Peace and serenity.

God breathed the world into existence with a vibrational Word. He dug His hands in the mud and made the first man, Adam, who drew the first human breath. The article beginning with breath is exactly as it should be. We begin our lives with an inhale and end with an exhale.

Kristi's mom is dying. That is why her breathing is changing. It has nothing to do with the 'weather.'

Honestly, I’ve been there. That first sentence is accurate and all the introduction necessary

Not for me. I felt the death event was withheld. I don’t have your imagination to fill in my blanks. You have been there, I have not been there.

Writers are not obligated to share everything, especially when writing about the most painful experience of their lives. Kristi is sharing the most traumatic moment of *her life with us. Have some compassion.

Excess, that’s how you feel. Not me. I wanted to hear details of how the humans exercised their free wills to aid g-d at that important event.

Not everything is about you.

How rude!

It is not about me either. It is about listening politely and respectfully to Kristi's story of her mother.

respiro rantoloso.... tre solamente 3 sospiri e poi il nulla... la fine... la morte.... la solitudine. soprattutto la fine della sofferenza !!!! ♥

Editorial fairy:

>Because I wanted her to be here,

for me.

sentence somehow is split on two rows.

>two-thousand

I don't think there is a hyphen when written alone.

>She was hurt, sad and lonely.

She was used and she was abused.

something strange with formatting here in the text between 'lonely' and 'she.'
