    R.I.P. Agatha Nicole Abney > 08/12/2018 - 08/12/2018 > See Prayers For Megan

    Thanks You All For Your Thoughts & Prayers!

    I want to thank everyone for praying for my oldest daughter (Megan) and our grandchild that we didn't get a chance to meet.
    Agitha's heart or at least her heart valves were able to be harvested so that she could help another family in need.
    She also put Megan's ulcerative colitis in remission during the entire pregnancy so a helping soul she was and will always be.
    Agatha Nicole Abney, who was born and died on the same day will be put to rest this Saturday.

    For the complete story of how Agatha came to be and passed, feel free to read the attached thread:

    It is the will of him who sent me that I should lose nothing of what he has given me: rather, that I should raise it upon the last day. --John 6:39

    That is our faith, our belief, about what life in Christ is. But we still struggle with what we should do. As you stand by the graveside we stare into the mystery of death with a greater mystery still, the mystery of risen life. In the meantime there is grief, and nothing in Christian faith asks us to deny grief. We have known, all of us, someone who made an immense difference. We thank God for just that much. And we ask God for just enough strength to handle our grief. While no words or gestures will ever be enough to comfort the pain experienced by Megan for her child, God's response to our tears is the offer of hope - hope in the promise of eternal life.

    With us, as we pray a rosery for you, at a monastery in Oklahoma there are monks praying for you, your family, Megan, and Agatha.

    UPDATE:

    Megan is out of the hospital and now at our home.
    She and her husband Nicolas have moved in for a while so that her mom, my better half, can properly take care of her.
    Today is her 28th birthday so we had a family dinner, which included her in laws who are also a very supportive pair.
    Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers and know that "That English Teacher" is on the mend.

    Steve, Cathy and I are so sorry to hear about your family’s unimaginable loss.
    Our deepest sympathies go out to you and your family.
    It’s wonderful to hear that Agatha’s heart will give will give someone else life,
    and continue beating for another lifetime.

    Steve,

    I am so sorry for your loss and what you are going through. I was so looking forward to the birth announcement and it just broke my heart when I read that y'all lost her. There is nothing that I can say that will take the pain away so I will say nothing further.
