Pattie, both my kids say exactly what you are saying. They're tired. they see no reason to still be here. I love you and I'll tell you what I say to them. Don't ever feel you're not still needed. God has a plan for each and every one of us. Taking care of others is a big part of it, but it isn't the WHOLE. You must have hope; if you've lost it, then pray and try hard to find it. The veil between your Mom and your sweetheart and you, is as thin as a beautiful spider web and they see and love you through it. They can see how very much you care. Not just them, but the others you've nurtured, can, too. They live through you, too. Your babies are there with them and you will get to raise them, but you are badly needed here, too. You never know who YOU have inspired or shaped until you pass through that gossamer veil yourself. Please, please keep that tiny ember of home glowing. You are loved and God has you still here for His reason!!!
