God saw you getting tired when a cure was not to be. So, he wrapped his arms around you and whispered come with me. You didn’t deserve what you went through, and so he gave you rest. God’s garden must be beautiful, as he only takes the best. So, when you were sleeping so peacefully, and free from pain, we could not wish you to come back to suffer through all of that again.
We love you,
Your loving family
