A little flower lent not given to bud on earth and bloom in Heaven
Last December Michelle Malkin and other bloggers posted about a young girl who was diagnosed with a brain tumor. What caught the attention of the blogosphere is that the little girl’s mother had died of cancer just a couple of years prior. Many people from all over the Country sent cards, gift, prayers and words of encouragement. We posted it here at KDH and got several notes from readers saying they had sent a card.
Hannah has died. Below is the note on Michelle Malkin’s site:
Hannah was diagnosed with a rare, incurable brain tumor in October 2008. Hannah’s mother died of cancer three years ago. Many of you joined last December in sending prayers and well wishes to Hannah, who wished for Christmas cards from across the country. She touched so many of us. Her too-brief life reminds us how precious all life is. Her father’s love reminds us how precious all our children are.
Darin Garman’s message at Hannah’s CaringBridge page:
Tonight at 5:45 Hannah went home to be with Jesus. She was surrounded by family & passed peacefully. Right now I’m pretty exhausted. It’s been a long day. Please pray for the family & me over this tough time.

I posted about this under the title “Mother and Child Reunion…..” Also included one of my favourite pictures of this precious Angel…
Keeping all who love Hannah in my prayers…

This is my daughters age. My heart just breaks sometimes…

It is too much for one man to bear. I truly hope that Hannah’s father, how is a widower too, has a lot of love and support around him right now. I pray that he is surrounded by Christian love, charity and mercy in these days of grief.

What catches my attention is the amount of love between father and daughter and the tremendous amount of love generated by those that knew Hannah.

Bingo, Hank.

Wow! I somehow came across this site tonight while looking for something else. Like they say, “you get what you need.” I, too, lost my precious seven year old daughter after a three year battle with a brain tumor. Ironically, her Anniversary is tomorrow (Nov 1, All Saints Day) and it’s been 31 years but the pain is still there, as well as the huge void in my heart. More ironic is the fact that I used the quote “A little flower, just lent, not given…..to bud on Earth but bloom in Heaven.” to put on her headstone <3 Thinking and praying for Hannah's family and may they know our two Angels are at peace and free from pain now.
