~* Mother's Day Prayers For Shiloh *~

Every time I see a picture of a sleeping child,
My heart and thoughts turn to one special little boy.
He’s been on life support, and in a coma for five years,
missing out on those years of his childhood joy.

Shiloh’s family lives on its faith and hope,
That one day soon their little angel will awake.
He'll stretch, then reach for his Mother’s arms,
A great new beginning this family will then make.

My heart goes out to his waiting Gramma too,
Maggie’s a wonderful friend of mine you see.
It breaks my heart to know what she misses,
Whenever I hold my grandkids close to me.

I hear about the strength of Shiloh’s parents,
Standing by, doing everything that they can.
I know I have no right to question this, but…
What lesson is there from this in God’s plan?

As Mother’s Day is almost over today,
I wanted to send Shiloh’s Mom, a hug and a prayer.
With three other children, strong faith and hope,
I pray that Shiloh will soon join her family there.

~* Happy Mother's Day To Sunny and Maggie *~
(The best Mom and Gramma I know)

~ * ~

Dear Friends,

Five years ago, at 9 months old, Shiloh almost drowned, and he has been in a coma ever since.  Maggie, who posts here as Flutterwings at Passions is Shiloh’s Gramma, and a dear, dear, friend.  She and her family believe so strongly in the power of prayer and believe that Shiloh will indeed wake up one day soon.  Maggie has a beautiful site, and has prayer pages set up for Shiloh. If you feel so inclined I wondered if you would mind giving Sunny and Maggie your prayers on this Mother's Day for Shiloh?  Please sign her guestbook at the bottom of any page, and she will see them, and make sure your prayers are given to Shiloh's Mom Sunny on this Mother's Day.

There is a place at the bottom to pass the prayer page along if you feel there is someone else that would like to send their wishes too.

Thank you all so much.

Here are the links to the prayer pages on her site, these pages, to sign the guest book, thanks again.

We should spend less time worrying about when our life is going to end and more on when it's going to start!

Oh my.  This is soooo very heartbreaking and yet inspiring at the same time.  I went to each of the links, and it was weird because that graphic that is on the far left is the very same one that my own 6 month old has hanging over her crib.

I just want to hug that little angel and let him know that he is in our prayers.  Hes just beautiful, and as a mother I can see right through those tubes.

I admire his mother for her strnegth as I know that God's will doesn't always make sense for us, and it can be confusing sometimes.

I hope and pray that this little fellow wakes up soon to see all the faces of love that have surrounded him.

She truly deserves a Happy Mothers Day as I am sure that her days and nights have been so long and full of grief.  Please pass my love and prayers to your friend and and Shiloh's mom, as well as him.

I may hate myself in the morning - but I'm gonna love you tonight

Thank you for bringing Maggie's Grandson's poem back up. This is such a sad, but powerful story of faith and love for this little boy. Shiloh just had his 6th birthday and there has not been a day that his family have given up hope.

Maggie is his grandmother, and she is known as Flutterwings, both here, and at The Starlite Cafe. May God's will soon be done!
