I did it! I did it! There is more than one way to skin a cat. These pictures were taken about 36 hours before Joshua passed away. They were taken by a kind woman from an organization called "Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep". These pictures are offered to parents free of charge if their child is not expected to survive. They also take pictures of children after death if that is what the parents want. Neither Les nor I wanted pictures after death. I mostly wanted these pictures because I wanted something else to remember besides all the tubes and bandages and machines. I was frantic to get pictures after the Dr's pulled the life support off Josh but all we were able to get were a few quick snapshots where both Les and I were crying. They were so sad, these pictures, I felt horrible these would be Josh's final pictures. I am so appreciative of this organization for giving me this gift. I am sure there will be tons of blessings for these brave men and women who take these types of pictures all the time. I don't think I would be that brave. I would cry too much.
Love You All,
Hang in there everyone and remember God is in charge.
