Why we run

This came from one of my team mates:

The below message in from the family of a beautiful 8 year old named Caroline Sherrill. She is in my daughter's class at Davidson Elementary and she has been suffering from a brain tumor and leukemia. Please say a prayer for her and her family today and keep doing all that you are doing to find a cure.


We're near the end

This update is hard to put out, but I'll try the best I can. Caroline's body has started to shutdown now. The last few days have been very peaceful, but she's stopped eating and drinking a few days ago. At this point, we have hours left rather than days.

Mary and I have both talked to her and told her that's it's OK to let go now. She's been protective of us though all of this and she's fighting to hang on. Yesterday was the last day that she was able to communicate through simple yes and no. The exception to that is during my talk with her. I told her that God must have really loved us, because out of all the little girls he could have given me, he gave me the best one. In classic Caroline style, she was able to get out "I know".

While we know that it's time for her to go back to God, it's so hard to let go. We are now just spending time holding her and being together as a family. Please pray for peace and comfort for our family.
