A friend I admire

A friend I met and made friends with when we were both experiencing weeks and days before we both lost a family member. We hadn't talked for awhile, but friends are on your mind whether you talk often or not.
Today she called me and caught me up on some things happening in her life. You have to know she is a lady I immediately bonded with when we met. She and her husband had just got custody of 2 grandchildren and step grandchild from another state. They were in foster homes because both parents were in prison. There were 2 girls and a boy. The girls about 8 and 12 and the boy 4. The girls were in the same home and seperated from their brother. Shoirtly after getting the children their house burned, destroying everything, they only escaped with their lives. They were able to get another home and settling in. The children were put in counseling because of all the trauma they had experienced in their home with drug making and addicted parents, and further trauma from abuse in the foster homes. The grandfather began having problems other than those he was being treated with dialayis for. There was a brain tumor and given 3 weeks to live. She knew no one, I thought of church family to help. Neither was there a church family. I talked with one of the drivers for another patient that lived in her area. He was a nice christian man and said he would see what he could do. He and his wife went to a small church in the area and was able to help in the emergency situation with the children. 6 years later she is still caring for them and they are thriving. She has taken in another grandchild disabled with muscular dystrophy since his mother has passed away with a sudden heart attack, not long ago. I'm not sure she attends church, but she relies on the Lord and gives Him all the praise for being able to do what she does. The oldest girl is in a group home and has employment, which is truly remarkable given her mental capabilities. She was so concerned as what would happen to her if she could no longer be around for her. The other 2 help care for the disabled child when not in school, reading to him and entertaining him and helping to bathe him. He goes to a school for special needs children.  This year alone she has had several deaths in her family, sister and daughter-inlaw among them. I know she would appreciate prayers, her name is Donna.
Thanks for listening, she is so precious.
