A Beautiful Experience

Over this past weekend we have had a very beautiful and spiritual experience. Devin's maternal Grandma was diagnosed with cancer several months ago. Last week she fell into a coma and lay waiting to return to Heaven. During the week there were several moments we thought we lost her, but she continued to hold on. By Friday afternoon she was still hanging on and Devin suggested that we go and see her. As we entered her room, Adalyn immediately reached out for her. We were quite surprised but attempted to get her closer. Adalyn continued to reach, and even became frustrated when we tried to hold her back. Finally we allowed Adalyn to touch her hand and for a moment she just laid down beside her. It was all I could do to keep from crying. This continued up until the time that we left. As we were leaving Adalyn reached out to each person in the room and gave them a hug. This completely shocked us because generally she has to warm up to people first. On our drive home (not 20 minutes into it) we received the call that Grandma Hancock had passed. At that point, we knew that Adalyn was aware that the gates of Heaven were opened. Grandma was being called home and our angel knew it. She was connected to both worlds and was able to show us how close the two worlds actually are. She then reached out to each person as if to tell them, "All is well."















The next days that followed were very reassuring. On Sunday evening a Family Viewing was held. Grandma was so beautiful and at peace. The funeral was a beautiful memorial to her life and reminder of what a loving, giving, and charitable person she was.




























We are so grateful for the opportunity we had to know this wonderful woman and for the beautiful experience we were able to share with her this last week. We love you Grandma!
