last thought for the night.

If God is so clever, could He ask a question that even he couldn't answer? OR.
If God is so clever, could He ask a question so stupid that even He couldn't have asked it? goodnight fellow ABers. Peace and Love to you all. do sheep shrink when it rains? will your answer to this question be no?

If God was clever or kind, my best friend's three children wouldn't have died aged, 9, 14 & 16....

Just a thought?!?!

Hi there Megan and all, I don't believe in God anyway but thats a different story altogether so I'll just shut up now. Lol

[ace63]

Hi all - they all died of a very rare syndrome which affects the nervous system.

When the eldest was born, she appeared perfect in every way & when she got to toddler age, they decided to have another baby.

Whilst she was pregnant, the toddler showed signs of spasms in her muscles. They took her to G.O.S. where they diagnosed this awful syndrome.

When the second daughter was born, she seemed fine, but at two years old, the same syndrome was diagnosed.

Our friends carried on life as normal as possible, but as the years rolled by, 'C' passed away in G.O.S. aged 9 yrs.

A few years later, the same happened with 'C' & she sadly passed away aged 14.

Time passed & after a lot of soul searching & discussions with the Consultants, they decided to have another baby, hoping it would be a boy & not have the same faulty gene.

J gave birth to a 'perfect' beautiful baby boy. They were cautiously elated & hoped he would be fine. He was, until he too got to toddler age & showed the same symptoms. He had tests & they were told he had the same syndrome. Their son 'B' passed away aged 16.

To look at all three of their children, you would never have known they were so ill. They were very happy, pretty & handsome with shiny black hair & big brown eyes.

Spending time at the hospital with our friends, attending the funerals & watching them suffer was/is indescribable.

So 'No', I don't think God's kind or clever - if there is one at all.

Thank you for your kind words & nite, nite all. -xx-

[smudge]

Sorry that was rather long, but hard to put into words.

My friend will never have any more children or grandchildren either.....

I have said it before and I shall say it again that although technically brought up a Christian, it was a family bereavment that actually made my faith grow rather than diminish.

God took my beautiful wife for a reason. He was probably short of crumpet or decent cooks in Heaven, but he had his reasons.

Hey ho.

[Louisa 69]

Aww smudge that is heartbreaking. It certainly puts life into perspective doesn't it when we moan about silly little things.

They've got a good friend in you though.

Take care night, night smudge xx

Sorry to hear about your loss too, Wardy. I think when a person time come to go and meet St. Peter, there's nothing that could be done to avoid that.

[smudge]

Thank you for those kind words Louisa. Also all you other lovely AB'ers. -xx-

I've know Jan since we were 11 years old at achool & we're as close now as we've ever been. She thinks of me as the sister she never had.

The story didn't end there...When her son was a toddler, her husband started an affair with her 'so called' friend, left her, divorced & remarried. But Jan carried on regardless, lovingly bringing B up until that fateful day.....
