There was another adoptive family that I was praying for while Jiliang was in the ICU. There daughter also had a complicated, risky surgery. However, she passed away today in the presence of her new family who loved her unconditionally. Please keep her family in your prayers. It breaks my heart to see another family suffer the loss of their adoptive child. They had their four-year old daughter in their lives for a mere 7 months, but Chrissie died in the security of her forever family: a precious gift that we often take for granted.

Chrissie's mother had been a true inspiration to many people. Please keep this family in your hearts and prayers and they face tomorrow without the presence of their beautiful daughter, who touched the lives of so many people across the country.
Thanks,
Jill

ReplyDeleteHi Jill!
ReplyDeleteI have been following your blog and Chrissie's as well. As another China Heart Mama these kiddos really touch my heart. I am thrilled to hear that Jiliang is doing so well. Praise God! Thank you so much for sharing her story with us!
I am heartbroken over the loss of Chrissie. It's funny how one little girl you never knew can touch so many people. But God is good. He used that child in ways that we'll never even begin to understand.
Blessings to you,

This just breaks my heart! Thankful she is with our Jesus but I'm so sad for this precious family!
