Nanny
If you know me then you had to have known or heard me talk about the wonderful woman that raised me. My Nanny, Pat Bailey, suffered from a brain anurism on Sunday while attending her grandson's baseball game. She was 71. We got her to the hospital as soon as she started to feel funny but it was massive and wouldn't stop bleeding. Within two hours she lost all brain activity. She died on Monday. I'm in shock, feel empty, and am experiencing pain like never before. I know I need as much prayer as possible. Please remember in prayer my brother and sister who were both living with her as well as my grandfather that depended on her every second since he is in the late stages of Alzheimer's. Josh and I are going to have our hands even more full. The funeral is Friday at 1pm and visitation is Thur from 6-8 both at Griffin-Leggitt (Rest Hills) in NLR. I feel blessed to have had such a wonderful woman raise me and guide me to the Lord. I do have peace about where she is now but words can't say how much I miss her. She prayed the entire way to the hospital even though she couldn't lift up her head and the nurse said the last words she said is "I'm going to the light" and then repeated it again "I'm going to the light". What a testmant to me and everyone else that she touched.
Jackson today you woke up and told us that you were very mad. I asked you why and you said you wanted Jesus to bring your Nanny back home and then started crying. It is so hard trying to explain this to you. You are hurting very much. You have also asked where she is going to sleep, will she have a home, does she need bandaids, and many many more questions. I know Nanny is smiling down on you and your sisters right now. This will be the hardest thing to date we have had to endure as a family. I couldn't do it without the three of you and your Daddy to keep me breating. Love you.
