Death of an Angel


On the eve of my sister's Anniversary, I decided to dedicate this blog to my only sibling Lina...

Two things I know for sure (quoting Oprah), is that DEATH is final and ANGELS always surround us!
I know some Christians state that Death is not the end but the beginning.  Try telling that to a mother who lost her child too soon or to a child who will never feel his mother's kisses again.  Since I lost my sister in 2003 due to a hospital error, I try to remain rational about it and not bitter.  And for some strange reason this was the one time in my life I did not question GOD.  Was it because I seen her suffering and knew that Death would ease her pain?  Is it because I was raised in the Church and knew their was some religious meaning behind it, and I was not suppose to question GOD?  In any event my sister is not here physically but she is definitely my personal ANGEL...

As I type this I laugh because my sister always told me I should write a book.  She would come up with all kinds of book titles - sarcastically chronicling my life.  If she knew I was beginning to write a weekly blog, she would come up with all kinds of ideas for me to write about and then let everyone know on Facebook to read it!  lol.

On an endnote - as my sister lied in the hospital in a medically induced coma, I was about 5 months pregnant.  Three months later after her passing, on what would have been her 29th Birthday - I gave birth to my oldest son!  How could I be mad at GOD...
