Sleeping More and More

Metisha has been overwhelmed with all of the support you have given her through flowers, text messages, Facebook and cards! She has no doubts of how much she is loved and cherished. Please know how much she appreciates the support and if she does not respond, it is because she is flooded with messages and her vision is now being affected making it hard to read and respond to everything. But know we are reading all of your words of love and encouragement to her. The house is looking like a flower shop and Metisha loves every single flower.  She is very sorry she cannot give so many of you hugs but she does not have any energy for visitors now. She is sleeping more and more and needs to spend her few waking hours left with Mark, her parents, siblings and niece.
We know how hard it is to feel like there is nothing you can do. But please know your prayers are exactly what we need. And we do not take likely how Metisha’s journey has touched your lives how the end if affecting you. We know you are sharing in our tears. But we must all remember that while we will forever miss our Super Hero, a reward beyond comprehension awaits her. One of our youngest prayer warriors said it best yesterday: Jesus just wants to play with Tisha now … He cannot wait any longer. So much wisdom from a 3 year old.

Please keep praying with us.

Tish you are one of the most amazing people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. We have been so blesed to have u in our family. I will cherish forever the memory of being able to be with u and Mark when u got married in Jamaica. It was a blast. Especially my new found love of Rock Steady's. Ur dad always reminds me of just how much I loved those. My kids always talk about the time at christmas when u hung out in the back room playing games with the kids. U have fought a long battle and I think you are a strong beautiful person.
I love ya Tish,
Bridgette

In our journey on this earth, the Lord sends us instruments. You are that one Metisha. God has used you so that He would be glorified. Those students will come to know where that strength, love, hope and tenacity came from-your Heavenly Father. We pray they turn to Him as you have.
Each of us greatly desires to hear those words- Well done thou good and faithful servant, enter thou, into thy joy of thy LORD!Matthew 25:23
I love you, my dear sis in the LORD.

You have amazed and inspired me with your courage, grace, dignity, and strength. Your smile lights up rooms and your laugh is a joy. If it is time for you to let God walk you home, know this: you have left each of us a better person for having known you. I was a privileged recipient of one of your hugs not too long ago, and the strength I got from it has stayed with me. Thank you for allowing me to be a very small part of your life. Love you.

Please know that we are praying for you and your family. You are a wonderful testimony. I'm sorry we haven't gotten to see you since Bryce's wedding. We don't why this is happening but we do know that God's plan and His will are perfect. If He does call you home you will finally be pain free and whole again. We love you!

Barbara and Danny,

I can't imagine! Just know you are loved and prayed for. You reached out and touched me in my darkest hour and I can only hope I can return a small part of that friendship during this time.

Love and prayers!
