Healed in Heaven

In Loving Memory
Onyx Isabella Sanchez-Lopez 07/02/07 - 08/05/07

Onyx was a beautiful little girl. She had more black, thick hair than I have ever seen on such a little girl. She was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Sydrome. Heavenly Father sent her to earth with only half a heart because he wanted to keep the other half with him. Onyx passed away Sunday morning. My heart breaks for her mom, Sharon, who I met here at the RMH and in the CICU. I pray the Lord will bless their family with peace and comfort and help them through their time of tragedy.

Oh break my heart...

One of the things we do at Gus' Gang is send out GUS Boxes (GUS stands for God Understands Suffering)to families who are grieving the loss of a child. I'd love to send one of these boxes to your friend. Let me know if you think this would be a good idea...I could send it to the RMH and have them forward it to her...or if you have an address that would be great.

Thanks for letting us know about Onyx...I'll be praying for her family...

The Day I Became A Heart Mother

One day my world came crashing down,
I'll never be the same.
They told me that my baby was sick.
I thought, "Am I to blame"?
I don't think I can handle this.
I am really not that strong.
It seemed my heart was breaking.
I have loved him for so long.
I will not give up on this child.
I will listen to your advice.
I will give my son any chance.
No matter what the price.
I will learn all that I need
To help my baby thrive.
I'll even use that feeding tube.
My child must survive!
Will he need a lot of therapy?
Will he gain the needed weight?
Please God, help me do this.
As I accept our fate.
When the monitors beep at night,
it serves as my reminder.
How many parents would love that sound.
Tomorrow I will be kinder.
As another Angel earns his wings,
I run to my baby's bed.
I watch him sleep for quite a while.
I bend down and kiss his head.
I cry for the parents whose hearts have been broken.
I look to You wondering why?
Oh Lord, I just can't know your ways....
no matter how I try.
And yet, I trust you hold his life,
and guide us through each day.
My mind says savor each moment he's here,
but my heart begs, "PLEASE let him stay"!
From pacing the surgical waiting room,
to sitting by his bed.
From wishing for a good nights sleep,
to learning every med.
From wondering, "Will he be alright?",
to watching him reach out his hands.
With every smile my heart just melts,
despite life's harsh demands.
For all who see that faded line.
I look to them and smile.
You see my child is loved so much.
I would face ANY trial.
That scar I trace with my finger
(It's the door to his beautiful heart).
God must have known how much I'd love him
(Just as He loved him from the start).
A heart mom is always a heart mom.
Now wise beyond her years.
For those who have angels in heaven,
Our hearts share in all of your tears.
Every day I will try and remember,
I was chosen for him (and no other).
I will always embrace that beautiful day.......
When I became a "Heart Mother".
