UPDATE! Little Lucy!

I am sorry to inform you that little Lucy Jackson will be running into the open arms of our Heavenly Father sometime tomorrow. As you can imagine the brain scan showed that she was deprived of oxygen for approx. 45-60 min. before being resuscitated. There was not much if any brain activity the last 48 hours and her family has decided to let her go. She was surrounded by lots of family today who wanted to hold her and say their goodbyes before tomorrow. As you can imagine her family is in complete shock and horror about the events that have transpired over the last three days but hopefully they will feel the love of their Heavenly Father and be comforted.
I myself have been reflecting over the last few days about this tragedy and been quite upset. Life is so precious and it can change in a second. I am so grateful for my family and the health of my children. Though we have had our set of challenges (who doesn't right) I feel extremely blessed for everything I have. I know that little Lucy must have been a special spirit to be so needed in Heaven at such a young age.
I myself, will, and have been praying for her family to feel comfort at this time and to feel the love of the Savior, they will see her again I believe it with my whole being!

That is so sad. My heart goes out to that family. Thanks for sharing the story. I put this story on my family's blog so that they will remember to cut up my nieces and nephews food really small. It scares me to have kids!
