Light a Light for Mito

Each year during the Wednesday of the third week of September, as we celebrate and join together to raise awareness for mitochondrial disease across the globe, we remember those who have lost the battle with mitochondrial disease and ask that friends and family "Light a Light" in their memory. 

For the angels that we miss dearly, we light a light and remember you.

Heather Grace Coleman 9/25/02-9/16/05
Today, it has been four years since Heather left her tired, broken body behind and flew to Heaven to be in Jesus' arms.  Next week, we will be celebrating her seventh birthday while she celebrates everlasting life with her Father in Heaven.

You can light a virtual candle in Heather's memory at:
Heavens_Playground Shrine At nshrine.com

Heather's birthday and Angel Day fall during Mitochondrial Disease Awareness Week, a time to learn about the disease that took her from us far too soon.  Please visit www.mitoaction.org for more information, and consider making a donation in Heather's memory.




When You Ask

When you ask about her
Leave your fears at the door

Your questions open each window
Watch the sunlight stream in

I see her infectious grin
The soft hand inside mine

Come, sit, let me tell you
These times are too rare

When you ask about her
You give me permission

And I need this sunshine
Like daily bread

I can warm these rooms
With the life-giving memories

When you ask about her
You bring the flowers that never die.
