I have this neighbor who just passed away from a stroke and then being in a coma for a couple of days. It was/is hard, she left behind a husband who is a new bishop and five young kids. This family has been through so much. One son had cancer and another son got stepped on by a horse and now this. When this happened the question of 'why' was running through every bodies head. Now I know God has a plan for everyone but sometimes it just gets hard. We talked about why bad things happen to good people the other day in class and the stress it causes. With all of this happening they are still able to remain strong and have good faith and carry on even though it is something extremely sad and hard. Looking back and thinking on it now you can turn to see these in the light of blessings. The son who had cancer, was healed and has been cancer free for a couple of years, the son whose head was stepped on a horse survived and is just fine now with no side affects. As for the mother, if she was to come out of a coma and survive she could of easily had brain damage which could of been hard on the family. Sometimes it is hard to see the bright side in a stressful situation but it depends on how you look at it and to always remember that God has a plan and in the end it will be the best for us.
