THE LOSS OF MY BABY...CHRISSY


THOSE OF YOU THAT KNOW US BEST KNOW THAT CHRISSY WAS OUR WORLD...WHEN GOD TOLD ME AND MARK YOU CAN'T HAVE CHILDREN HE SENT US A SON, CAMERON WHO WE LOVE DEARLY, THEN GOD SENT US A DAUGHTER FROM HEAVEN, KNOW ONE KNOWS WHERE SHE CAME FROM OR HAD EVER SEEN HER BEFORE, SHE JUST APPEARED ON OUR DOORSTEP AN ANGEL FROM HEAVEN AT ABOUT 3MONTHS OLD...FINALLY OUR FAMILY WAS COMPLETE..A SON AND A DAUGHTER, WHAT MORE COULD ANY FAMILY ASK FOR...AS I SAID THOSE WHO KNOWS US BEST KNOWS SHE WAS JUST THAT, OUR CHILD, WHO WE WOULD GIVE OUR OWN LIVES FOR AS WITH OUR SON...
CAMERON IS AWAY BECOMING A MAN IN THE ARMY...CHRISSY WAS THE BABY THAT NEVER GREW UP...SHE WAS THE LIGHT OF OUR LIVES.
OVER THE PAST 2 MONTHS SHE RAN INTO MANY DIFFICULT TIMES..
THE MONDAY AFTER EASTER SHE WAS RUNNING AROUND THE BACK YARD AND TORE HER ACL, AND HAD TO HAVE KNEE SURGERY...SHE ALSO AT THAT TIME HAD A SMALL TUMOR IN HER BELLY THEY REMOVED, WE THOUGHT LUCKILY IT WASN'T CANCER..SHORTLY AFTER THAT SHE DEVELOPED A RESPIRATORY INFECTION...WE WERE ABLE TO CLEAR THAT UP SO THAT SHE COULD HAVE CATERACT SURGERY SO HER EYES WOULD BE ABLE TO SEE ALL THE THINGS SHE LOVED AGAIN...THAT WENT OK AT FIRST....BUT THEN SHE WENT BLIND AGAIN DUE TO CRANIAL PRESSURE BEHIND THE OPTIC NERVE AND FRONTAL LOBE...
A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER SHE WAS VERY PALE AND WE TOOK HER BACK TO THE DR. HER BLOOD COUNT WAS 8 WE ALMOST LOST HER..SO THEY TRANFUSED HER..SHE WAS LIKE NEW, SHE ACTED BETTER THAN SHE HAD FOR A LONG TIME..WE DECIDED TO TAKE HER TO A SPECIALIST TO SEE WHY SHE WAS LOOSING BLOOD, SHE HAD A TUMOR IN HER INTESTINES AND WHEN WE TREATED HER WITH STEROIDS TO BRING THE INFLAMMATION DOWN BEHIND THE EYES AND BRAIN IT CAUSED HER TUMOR TO HEMMORHAGE....
ITS BEEN ABOUT 36 DAYS NOW AND SHE HAS BEEN DOING MUCH BETTER...THEN 6/16/08 SHE FELT REALLY BAD... SO I TOOK HER BACK TO THE DR. WE BELIEVED IT WAS TIME TO TAKE OUT THE INTESTINAL TUMOR, WE THOUGHT IT MIGHT RUPTURE, SO ON 6/17/08 SHE HAD THE TUMOR REMOVED...EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE, NO COMPLICATIONS WERE NOTED... I BROUGHT HER HOME THAT NIGHT AND BY FRIDAY 6/20/08 SHE WAS VERY WEAK, AND WOULDN'T EAT, SO I TOOK HER BACK TO THE DR. SHE WAS THEN IN RENAL FAILURE...
THEY STARTED I'VS AND MEDICINE, I TOOK HER BACK ON SAT. FOR THEM TO SHOW ME HOW TO DO IT FOR SUNDAY WHEN THE OFFICE WAS CLOSED. HER NIGHTS WERE LONG.. WE JUST KNEW WE WOULD LOSE HER ANY MINUTE...HER FAVORITE FOOD IS POPEYES LIVERS AND CHICKEN...ALTHOUGH SHE COULDN'T HARDLY HOLD HER UP SHE MANAGED TO EAT..WE THOUGHT THERE WAS HOPE...6/24/08 SHE HAD TO GO BACK FOR MORE IV'S WHILE SHE WAS THERE, GOD DECIDED HE NEEDED THE ANGEL THAT HE SENT US BACK AT 11:42 AM , OUR BABY,.. OUR BABY WHO IS NOW WITH JESUS WAS GONE...HOW COULD THAT BE, WE WERE GIVIN 1 SON AND 1 DAUGHTER AND NOW SHE'S GONE..SHOULDN'T ANGELS LIVE FOREVER?
AS WE WENT BACK TO THE OFFICE TO SEE HER, IN THE SKY ABOVE THE OFFICE THERE WAS A CHECK MARK MADE OF CLOUDS ABOVE WHERE JESUS REACHED DOWN TO TAKE HER FROM HER SUFFERING..I'M SURE IT WAS HER SIGN TO SAY I'M OKAY MOM AND DAD AND I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH, I'M WITH JESUS NOW AND I WILL NEVER BE SICK AGAIN....
AS LIKE WITH EVERY DAY WHEN WE WOULD GET HOME SHE WAS SO HAPPY TO US SHE WOULD BARK AND CARRY ON AS IF SHE WAS TELLING US ABOUT HER DAY AND ASKING ABOUT OURS...I'M SURE WHEN ITS OUR TIME AND WE SEE HER AGAIN,.. WHEN WE REACH HEAVENS GATES SHE WILL BE THERE WAITING TO TELL US ABOUT HER DAYS AND WAITING TO HEAR ABOUT OURS....
I DO ASK WHY HER, I DO ASK WHY SUCH A SHORT TIME, WHY WAS SHE STRICKEN WITH SUCH BAD LUCK WITH HEALTH, WE FEED HER THE BEST FOOD AND AT NO EXPENCE WAS SHE TREATED WITH PREVENTATIVE AND CHECK-UPS YEAR AROUND. I KNOW I SOUND SELFISH, BUT YOUR CHILDREN ARE SUPPOSED TO LIVE A LONG LIFE.... MOST PEOPLE WOULD SAY SHE'S JUST A DOG...THATS TRUE, BUT GOD SENT HER TO ME AS A DAUGHTER...
WE WILL MISS HER MORE THAN ANYONE WILL EVER KNOW...SHE WAS OUR CHILD AND OUR HEARTS ARE BROKEN, WHEN WILL THE PAIN EASE...SO MANY QUESTIONS, NOT MANY ANSWERS....
WE ALWAYS ASK FOR ONE MORE DAY, JUST ONE MORE DAY...BUT DOES THAT MAKE IT EASIER WHEN WHEN THAT ONE MORE DAY COMES...THATS WHY GOD HAS TO SAY ITS TIME...THATS WHY HE IS THE ALMIGHTY THAT GIVES US ALL THE LIFE WE HAVE..HE KNOWS BEST..
WE ARE HURTING AND RIGHT NOW WE DON'T SEE WHY, BUT IN TIME GOD WILL HEAL OUR HEARTS AND WE WILL KNOW HE GAVE US AN ANGEL AND THATS BETTER THAN NEVER HAVING AND ANGEL AT ALL.....
THANK YOU TO ALL OUR FRIENDS WHO HAVE BEEN THERE FOR US, YOU WILL NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH THAT MEANS TO US, THAT YOU LOVE US. THE ANGEL GOD SENT US
CHRISSY HARRIS 1998-2008
JESUS TAKE CARE OF HER AND LOVE HER AS WE DID........
WE LOVE YOU AND WILL MISS YOU EVERY DAY, WITH YOU IN OUR LIVES MADE US VERY HAPPY DAY AFTER DAY...WE LOVE YOU...
LOVE MOM AND DAD AND BROTHER

WARNING???
DURING THE TIME CHRISSY HAD BEEN SICK, WE WERE FEEDING HER SOME CHICKEN JERKY TREATS BROKEN UP IN SMALL BITES. WE HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT SOME OF THE CHICKEN JERKY TREATS WERE TAINTED MEAT AND TAKEN OFF THE SHELVES AND WERE NEVER DISCLOSED TO THE PUBLIC.. THESE CHICKEN JERKY TREATS WERE FROM CHINA,IT CAUSED RENAL FAILURE IN CANINES, I DIDN'T REALIZE. HAS OUR COUNTRY LEARNED YET THEY EAT DOGS AND LAST YEAR THIER PRODUCTS KILLED THOUSANDS OF OUR BELOVED COMPANIONS..I WILL BE CHECKING LABELS ON EVERYTHING I BUY MY BABIES FROM NOW ON AND I HOPE TO SAVE SOMEONE ELSE FROM ANY HEARTACHE..PLEASE BE SELECTFUL IN CHOOSING YOUR LOVED ONES FOOD OR TREATS.
ALTHOUGH WE CAN'T PROVE IT YET BUT IT IS A BIG SIMILARITY..AND IF WE DO PROVE IT..IT WILL BE DISCLOSED TO THE PUBLIC...
