Daniel Robert
When my oldest son Daniel was born in 1989, he was diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy. The doctors told me he would not live past the age of 3. At first I got very angry at God. Then I realized that if the doctor's ("gods" on Earth...) couldn't help him, then I needed to put all my faith and trust in Jesus. I was saved and attended church regularly. Daniel did not have the same views I had. On Novemember 15, 2008, Daniel woke up that morning saying he didn't feel well and "couldn't do this anymore". I called 911 and got him to the hospital. While in the emergency department, I asked him if I could call my pastor in to see him. He was not too thrilled with the idea at that time. Later that night, some specialist came to see the "the boy who should not be alive let alone talking". He had only a spot the size of a pea left to his lung capacity. Sunday morning I left the hospital and went to church. While I was at the alter praying for God to "just please come" one of my pastors was at the hospital. Daniel accepted the Lord that day. He spent that night with his best friends at the hospital. They sang and talked the night away. During the night, Daniel fell asleep. He never woke up again. He passed away on Monday Novemeber 17, 2008. He was 19 years old. Praise God for all the years I had with him. I know he is out of his wheelchair and dancing in Heaven now. We will all see him again soon! I love Jesus with all my heart, mind and strength! And I thank him for answering prayers always on time! HIS time!! XO
