Someone please stop me (Layla Grace)

from reading these twitter updates.  My lord, I just can't deal with it.  I know I just need to stop, but I keep checking.  I broke down in tears yesterday talking to DH about it.  I've never been so heartbroken about a complete stranger.  I think I keep reading b/c I know as awful as this sounds, I am just hoping that she passes peacefully and I can stop thinking about how they all must be suffering... 

I can't take thinking that they can't hold her because it hurts her, or that she won't eat or drink anything, or that she hasn't been awake in days....  I don't know whether to pray for a miracle or just pray that she passes quickly and ends all of this....

    I get mad. I just want to scream to God how unfair it is that this little girl is hurting so much. Why does she have to be in this kind of pain....for so long?! Very very hard to wrap my brain around it all...I can only imagine what its like for her family. :o(

    I know what you mean.  I was telling my sister about her yesterday and started crying.  I have started praying that her pain stops.

    I feel the same way!! I have totally taken a personal interest in Layla Grace, almost as if she were my own. I get the Twitter updates on my phone and I jump every time my phone buzzes or I see that I have an update I about jump out of my skin.

    The whole not waking up for days and hurting to be held is breaking my heart! In her last tweet she talks about her feet getting cold....that means her passing is near. The blood is beginning to draw away from her extremities to support her core (heart, lungs, etc) functions. It won't be long...

    I just hope she passes soon. This is so sad...

    I read that right before I posted this.  I just want it to end....  I know I keep saying it, but I just can't imagine.....  I wish I could stop crying several times a day about this...

    I know exactly what you mean.  I was in a very bad place this weekend with my Faith b/c although I know that there is a reason for everything, I just don't understand why God would put this little girl through so much pain and have her parents watch her suffer knowing that they can't do anything.  I've cried until I've gotten a headache and it is so hard to understand.

    Yes, I too have been very affected by Layla's story.  I could cry at a drop of a hat.  I can't imagine burying my baby.  It's not fair.  At these times, I doubt my faith in God as well.  It's just soooo sad.
