With a sad heart !!!

I am sitting here at 11:20 pm tonight with a heavy, sad heart.

My mom called me at 9:30 this morning to tell me that Stevie had passed away in her sleep.
OMG....thought I was going to throw up, pass out....all at the same time

Thank God, my BFF Jen was here with me. Bear was out of town hunting, and Jen came over and we had a girls night of Mexican food, and movies after I rode Rio yesterday.
So she kinda took over.....got me ready and rushed me to my moms.

I live about and hour away so they had already taken her by the time I got there.
I was just there for my parents though.

I tried all day to stay strong, stay focused, and handle everything for my parents that I could. Bless their hearts....it kills me for them to hurt.....yeah, I hurt too.....however I am trying to be the one to carry them through this....trying to be their rock......there will be plenty of time when I am alone or after this is all over with to break down....

I am trying - I am trying......It is hard.

Stayed there, made phone calls, served food, etc..(man tons of food......we have great friends)
Bear drove in from Mississippi and stayed with me too. (I love him)

Got home about an hour ago, after making my parents promise me they would take some prescription help and get some sleep. They need it - it is going to be a rough 2 days.

Going to try to get the viewing done Mon night and the funeral on Tues. Dad went and handled the plot today with the opening and closing.

OMG !!!! I cannot believe I am typing this.

My sister was the kindest, most loving, most giving person I have ever met. I am not sure how we are going to make it without her in our lives.

I had to write the obit before I left my moms......that was not hard to do.
Will post it when it is published.

Please keep us in your prayers. You guys got me through the last hospital stay....ventilators and all.....I know your sweet thoughts and prayers will carry me so I can carry them.

Love you all
Broken hearted Jamie

Stevie Marie Glass.....I know you are with God....happy, healthy and telling everyone what to do !! I will love you and miss you always!!!!!

OH I am sooo sorrry Jamie, I knew the moment I saw your updated post, OMG It couldn't be!? I am in tears as I try to write words of comfort to you. In the background(my playlist) The song "Angels among us" is playing, itis such a beautiful song.
"I believe there are Angels among us sent down to us from somwhere up above they come to you and me in our darkest hour to show how to live teach us how to give to to guide us with the light of love. I believe your sister Stevie was your Angel. She has just moved on to a more beautiful place.Be reassured that she is no longer in pain, she is running , and spreading her wings. Always in your heart, now she is watching over you. Maybe she will meet my brother and son. They can be family there while we are family here. I love you my very dear friend, My heart aches for you. You and family are and always have been in my thoughts and prayers. Oh boy do I need tissue, I picked my playlist last night to aknowlede all the "Angels" out there that I have been blessed to come across. Now that I listen to them as I write to you, They were meant for you and Stevie. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

Dearest Jamie!! I am so floored. I don't even know what to say. I am so terribly sorry my sweet friend.
Beautiful Stevie knew you loved her and were always watching out for her. And you can believe that now she's up in heaven watching out for you. I wouldn't be surprised, now that she is in her light heavenly spiritual body, that she is riding an angel horse with wings, smiling the happiest smile you have ever seen.

Hugs and more hugs to you Jamie!!
Thanks for letting us know.
Prayers are being said now for your parents and family, for strength and peace.
Hang in there, my friend.

I love you!
Lisa
