Genevieve, I pray that you have comfort knowing she is now healed. You were there for her every day so I know you will miss her greatly. Just remember the good times you had with her and your family. You should write down some of these memories. So many today have no clue what it was like to live back when you were growing up. I pray the rest of the family also have comfort today knowing she is okay now.
