“I’m in it to win it, Momma!” Those are the sweetest words any mom could hear from her daughter, especially a daughter who fought the fight to breathe every day and night. Never complaining, never asking why, but pressing on for better days. I gave her all I could as her mother, her friend, her caretaker, her biggest fan. Kara and I shared many things, but the most wonderful thing we shared was our faith in a never changing, always loving Jesus.
Living without Kara is very difficult for me, but our family was blessed beyond measure to be given the most wonderful opportunity to meet an angel - a beautiful angel who taught me many things, much more than I could ever have taught her. Her faith in our God, her refusal to accept fear, and her example of loving others were three precious characteristics I plan to follow.
