“Sweet girl, I know your pain. I lost my dad, my mom , and a husband within 9 months … my mom and husband both had lung cancer , and I asked God why? I thought he forgot about me … months, after their passing, I was walking in my street, and it was a very windy day.. this paper blew into my ankle. I couldn’t shake it off.

I got my answer and I was not angry anymore .. hugs, God hears our prayers,” another added.
