I had dreams of playing with her on the playground... Her sweet little smile, her laughter in the wind... I can still feel her little hand wrapped around my fore finger as we walk to the swings. As I pick her up, I hold her in my arms, and listen to her breathing. She whispers into my ear 'push me'. So I set her in the swing, walk behind her, and push her gently. She says 'Higher mommy, higher!' I push her a little higher. But now it's getting late, and it's time to go. I pick her up, and hold her as I walk to the car. I hear her raspy breathing. I feel worried. I ask her if she's okay, but she simply replies 'yes mommy, I love you' I feel her body go limp in my arms, so I run to the car, set her in the car seat, and press my head to her chest to see if her heart is still beating... She's only sleeping...I feel tears creep in. I buckle her car seat and slip into the passenger seat. As my aunt starts to pull out I begin to sob. As we get closer to the house I hear her waking up, her breath is getting shallow... And with tears in my eyes, I tell my aunt I think it's time... So instead of pulling into the driveway she keeps on driving. I use her cell phone to call her doctor, and she (having lost her son to the same disease) begins to sob, she then says 'I'll meet you there'. When we get to the ER we see her standing in the parking lot. I get out of the car, barely able to stand, walk over to the back seat, and open the door. She's not moving... I listen once again for her heart beat...but it's too late...God has already taken her home... Dr. Hanney offers to take her into the ER for me, but I refuse to let her go...I walk into the ER sobbing in her frail shoulders... The DR takes her lifeless body out of my arms, but not before I kiss her cheek, and say goodbye my Baby Girl... I sob harder as they lay her on the gurney and push her farther down the hall... I fall to my knees to pray... But I can still hear her saying 'Push me mommy'...1

My daughter had two holes in her heart. She was on the Heart transplant list, but the list was too long. She passed away at age 7. She didn't even get to celebrate her 8th birthday... If you have ever thought of being an organ donor, I beg you to carefully consider doing it... I would have given her my heart if I could have... 7
I support Organ Donation, and am an organ donor...8

It says here that you are inviting critical reviews, but I confess that I am a little unnerved about providing one. I can be harsh, and this isn't what you need at the moment. Stay pure.
