Please pray for her to be peaceful, comfortable, not afraid, and for her to know how much we truly, truly love her. Our Princess.
We used to revel in the "new perfect" that was our life. Raising a beautiful girl with multiple special needs showed us that "perfect" is all in our minds. Emily's life was perfect. It was happy, it was brilliant. She was social, outgoing, silly, and ticklish. Now we are learning to get through life without our "Perfect Peanut" in it. This is most certainly NOT a new kind of perfect.

Waiting, cuddling, crying, loving
That is what we are doing right now. Emily's fluids have been turned off and she is getting a lot of medications to keep her comfortable. All we can do now is wait, cuddle, cry, and love. And we are doing all those things.
Please pray for her to be peaceful, comfortable, not afraid, and for her to know how much we truly, truly love her. Our Princess.

I have followed your blog for awhile now, and was so saddened to read that Emily's short life is coming to an end. You've been and amazing mom, and she's a lucky little girl to be surrounded by so much love. I pray for peace for all of you. Thank you for sharing your story.
I am praying for your whole family right now. I am praying for peace, comfort, strength and memories right now.
Praying for peace.
Sara, Alex and Jacob...she knows how much you love her. If it that obvious to people who have never met you, I know she feels it and she will for all eternity.It is because of that great love that she will not be afraid. You are sending her off with so much love, to a place where love is all there is.God bless you all.

Praying for the Holy Spirit to surround you and give you comfort and peace as Emily makes her way to Jesus. I have followed your blog for only a week and know and see how much you love your Princess. She knows too!!!
Praying for you all, holding you close to my heart, knowing I will be in your spot soon. I tried to copy and paste, but it was too much text. I found this Scripture and think that it would give you great comfort.

There aren't adequate words... John and I are holding you all so close in our thoughts and prayers.
Emily knows how very loved she is by you, Alex and Jacob. The impossibly hard decisions you have had to make... heartbreaking and unbearable... are evidence of the highest level of love and compassion you have for your beautiful girl.
Sending love to all of you.

I am so very, very sorry that you and your family are going through this. Just hold to the fact that nobody could have loved your daughter more, or given her a happier life.
I'm a friend of Katrina's and saw her post on Facebook. I lost a granddaughter 2 years ago in delivery. I can not imagine the heartbreak you must be going through. My heart and prayers go out to your entire family. Savor each and every moment. Praying for peace and comfort.

I am so sad by this...I can't imagine what these days arel like for you and your family.
We want to hold onto our babies so tight here, but I believe she will be whole, and healed in the presence of God....she one day will be doing all the little girl things she is dreaming of doing....
Thinking about all of you daily and praying for peace.
Thinking of you nonstop and wishing I could do something to help ease the pain. May there be peace and love surrounding you. (((Hugs)))
Oh my gosh I'm so sorry that this is the place you are at. She is beautiful and really looks to be at peace in the pictures. (((HUGS)))

My heart is so sad, Sara. I am so sorry that Emily could not stay. I have been reading your blog for years (I found you during one of my son's hospitalizations) & I am going to miss Emily even though I never met her.
I pray God comforts you as only He can.
Always thinking of you and praying for Emily's comfort. And strength for you, Alex and Jacob. My heart aches for you all. xo
Sending all my love. I pray that these next few days and weeks are filled with love, strength, peace, and courage.

My prayers are with you. I am catching up on blog reading now after being away for a while and this news took my breath away. You have my prayers. I loved seeing the pictures of Emily being held and surrounded by love. She has a beautiful smile and you are in my thoughts
Please know that you have been on my mind so much these days, and I am praying, knowing the road you now are on. There is nothing to say except I am sorry, and that I care. And am praying.
you have been on my mind a lot the past couple days. i hope you are well...that your family is feeling peace amidst the pain. you are all in our prayers.
Your family is in our thoughts... So sad, so sorry.
