For those of you that have followed the Barnard's blog and prayed for sweet Rebecca Sue I would like to share with you the recent posts from their blogsite.
Our hearts break tonight to tell you that Rebecca has gone to be with Jesus. She passed away this evening in mommy's arms at 6:15pm est. Her condition continued to deteriorate this afternoon to a point that was irreversible. We were brought to a place where we had to let her go. Although the painful journey did not take us to the place we had hoped, we took it faithfully and accept God's destination. He not only brought the rain, he brought the worst storm anyone could imagine.
UC hospital NICU was kind enough to let us bring her to see her sister for a while before leaving for home. Jessica and I are on the road now bringing her to Evansville. We will post arrangements when they are made.
Thank you all so much for the neverending support. We will never forger it.
Thank you to Rebecca's nurses that showed her love and cared for her so much at Children's Hospital. You will always be remembered.
I would like to add that through this storm the Barnard's have remained so strong and their faith unwaivered. They held tight to their Savior and to each other. As they mourn for the loss of their daughter they continue to witness and share her purpose. In her 74 days here she reunited relationships and brought people to Christ. Brandon spoke at the funeral and shared his memories with Rebecca. At the end of his emotional and heartfelt speech he shared that Rebecca was here for 74 days and brought so many to Christ. Our days are all numbered. What will you do with the days you are given?
God bless this amazing family. Please continue to pray for the Barnard family that they have a comfort that only He can give.
