I LIKE THIS STORY VERY MUCH!!! ITS A SAD STORY. BUT IT HAS A MESSAGE I LOVE TO READ!!!


The surgeon asked,

"Would you like some
time alone with your son ? One of the nurses will be out in a few minutes,
before he's transported

to the university."

Sally asked the nurse to
stay with her while she said good bye to her son.

She ran her fingers lovingly through

his thick red curly hair.

"Would you like a lock of his hair ?" the nurse asked.

Sally nodded yes. The nurse cut a lock of the boy's
hair, put it in a plastic bag and handed it to Sally.

The mother said,

"It was Jimmy's idea

to donate his body to

The University for Study.
He said it might help somebody else.

"I said no at first, but Jimmy said,
" Mom , I won't be using it after I die.

Maybe it will help some other little boy

spend one more day

with his Mom ."

She went on,

"My Jimmy had

a heart of gold.
Always thinking of

someone else.

Always wanting to help others

if he could."

Sally walked out of Children's Mercy Hospital for the last
time, after spending most of the last six months there.

She put the bag with Jimmy's belongings on the seat beside her in the car.

The drive home was difficult. It was even harder

to enter the empty house.

She carried Jimmy's belongings, and the plastic bag with the lock of his hair

to her son's room.

She started placing the model cars and other personal
things back in his room exactly where

he had always kept them.

She laid down
across his bed

and, hugging his pillow,

cried herself to sleep.

It was around midnight

when Sally awoke.

Laying beside her on the bed was a folded letter.

The letter said:

* Dear Mom ,

I know you're going to miss me; but don't think that I will ever forget you, or stop loving you, just 'cause I'm not around to say

"I Love You".

I will always love you, Mom , even more with each day. Someday we will see
each other again.

Until then, if you want to adopt a little boy

so you won't be so lonely, that's okay with me.

He can have my room and all my stuff to play with.

But, if you decide to get a girl instead,

she probably wouldn't like the same things us boys do.

You'll have to buy her dolls and stuff girls like, you know. Don't be sad

thinking about me.

This really is a neat place. Grandma and Grandpa met me as soon as I got here

and showed me around some, but it will take a long time

to see everything.

The angels are so cool.

I love to watch them fly.

And, you know what?

Jesus doesn't look
like any of his pictures.

Yet, when I saw Him,

I knew it was Him.

Jesus himself took me to see GOD !

And guess what, Mom ?

I got to sit on God's knee

and talk to Him,

like I was

somebody important.

That's when I told Him that
I wanted

to write you a letter,

to tell you good bye

and everything.

But I already knew that wasn't allowed.

Well, you know what Mom ? God handed me some paper and His own personal pen

to write you this letter.

I think Gabriel is the name of the angel who is going to drop this letter off to you.

God said

for me to give you

the answer

to one of the questions you asked Him

"Where was He

When I needed him ?"

"God said

He was in the same place with me,

as when
His son Jesus,

was on the cross.

He was right there,

as He Always Is

With All His Children." Oh, by the way, Mom ,

no one else can see what I've written .except you.

To everyone else this is just a blank piece of paper.

Isn't that cool ?
I have to give God

His pen back now.

He needs it to write some

more names in

The Book of Life.

Tonight I get to sit at the table with Jesus for supper.

I'm sure the food will be great.

Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. I don't hurt anymore.

The cancer is all gone.

I'm glad because I couldn't
stand that pain anymore

...and God

couldn't stand to see me hurt so much, either.

That's when He sent

The Angel of Mercy

to come get me.

The Angel said,

I was a Special Delivery !

How about that ?

Signed With Love from God, Jesus & Me.
