"This life is but a small moment"

First my Uncle passed away, then a week later, my patient that I have watched for most of his life, lost his battle to Spinal Muscular Atrophy. My heart can't take it anymore! It's been an emotional exhausting couple of weeks. Karson taught us that real strength comes from within. He had no muscle. Couldn't move his body and it hurt him to do so. His inner strength superceded his physical state. He fought through this disease. He fought hard. The spirit that he held was amazing. My uncle fought long and hard till the end as well. He was always a gentleman, always putting others' needs first, his entire life. When I visited him in the hospital on Christmas day, the only thing he could have was ice. I got him some, and he was so sweet when he offered some to my grandma and I. Always serving. Always thinking of others, till his last day.
Oh how grateful I am for the plan of salvation. This gospel brings my soul such peace. I now see my Uncle telling all sorts of stories with his dad, up in heaven. And Karson, I can't get the image out of my head of him running in the wind, flying a kite. Such peace this gospel truly brings.
