The Last Letter from Christina written a day before she died
I realized that there are a few thing that are so very precious to me that I have neglected to share with you. And since I have been sick IN BED mostly for a month, I haven't felt like doing anything construcive. I actually have been rebelling constructivity. I have been watching YOUTUBE, Nothing obscene ( I DON"T want to get stuck with those perv adds for the rest of my life) and I don't even click on anything like that. But there are a lot of funny people talking about funny things in their lives and it is entertainment, but totally unconstrucive - unless- that's right you start a vlog of your own and make it constuctive for the people who watch it and inspire them to be better - oh,wait,I,forgot. Oprah HAS a YouTube channel. So for me I will include this blog that I never did, Maybe it was too painful at the time, but more likely I got busy with soccer season and just plain forgot. But My God has this thing he does, called insomnia, when he really wants to kick you in the butt and get you going. So after all the rambling, without further delay, I present to you, my friends :
Christina's Last Letter
Hello Everybody,
I am sitting here with Art and I wanted to drop a quick note to everyone. I want to thank you for all of your prayers and support. You don't know what it means to have friends and family like you.
I know it may not seem like it at times but your prayers have been answered in many ways that you can't imagine. I feel very very tired and I don't have much of an appetite right now but I am very comfortable that's for sure.
I wasn't sure what day it was when Art woke me up today. I wasn't even sure what time it was LOL. The nurses are so nice here and we have been soooo happy with how they have treated our family during this time. I was a little nervous at first about being here but the service is top notch.
I feel like I am getting closer to the end of my journey here on earth and I feel such a peace. It's hard to explain. You always think about what it will be like when you know you are dying and I can personally testify that you do get a sense of when it's coming, and the presence of God gets stronger. I feel convicted to share this with you all for some reason.
Early on, I was upset and wanted to know why me? When I would pray to God about my pain and feelings His answer was "I know". I didn't understand that answer at first but one day Art and I were talking and Art said that while he was praying, God kept saying "I know, I know."
In Psalms it says "The Angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, and He delivers them." (Psalm 34:7).
I am grateful for the "encamping angels" in my life, like the one who stands guard by my bed each night giving me a restful sleep. God knows what I am going through and why. I always think about what a blessing it is to have an opportunity to say goodbye for now. Most people don't get that chance. When I saw what happened to the families on that bridge it makes me thankful.
God Bless you all and I will see you soon.
Love,
Christina o:) < see how she put an angel there?

"And wait'll you see all the closet space!!!
LONDON (Reuters) - An estate agent who took a prospective buyer to view a house in central England found the owner hanging dead in a closet, the agency said Thursday.
It was the first viewing of the 350,000-pound ($700,000) house which had been on the market for a week. The owner was hanging from a belt inside a walk-in closet in the main bedroom.
"It was quite a shock," said a spokesman for estate agents Hartleys. "Our agent quickly ushered everyone out, locked the property and called the authorities."
The owner, a single man in his 40s, is thought to have committed suicide. He inherited the house from his mother who died recently, the estate agents said.
Man, the death tax in England must be a killer!
