I'll lend you for a little time a child of mine," He said.
"For you to love the while she lives and mourn when she is dead"
"It may only be 15 years," but will you, till I call her back,
take care of her for me?"
"She'll bring her charms to gladden you but should her stay be brief
You'll have her lovely memories, as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise she will stay, since all from earth return,
But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn."
I've looked the whole wide world over in my search for teachers true
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes...
Anita and Jim, I have selected You.
Now will you give her all your love, nor think the labor vain.
Nor hate me when I come to call Courtney back again?
I fancied that I heard then say: "Dear lord, Thy will be done!"
"For all the joy the child shall bring the risk of grief will run."
We'll shelter Courtney with tenderness; we'll love her while we may.
And for happiness we've known, forever grateful stay.
"But should the angels call her much sooner than we'd planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand."
We love you Courtney

About me: Courtney lost her 2 year battle with cancer May 14, 2006...She was only 15 years old. In June 2004 she was diagnosed with a spinal cord tumor. The medical term is an Anaplastic Astrocytoma of the cervical spine. It was a very rare form of cancer being that it grew within her spinal cord...so it was very hard to treat. This site along with www.CaringForCourtney.com will remain as a constent reminder of the love and hope she gave to so many people.

~*~Written for Courtney ~*~*~*~ by Kelli William ~*~
I know that you're heartbroken
That I had to go away
And won't be here to share with you
Another bright spring day.
But please don't shed another tear
Because I had to leave.
Just celebrate the life I lived
And the new one I've received!
I left behind some little things
That I'll not need up here,
Like that tired, sick body
And other earthly things held dear.
But I left a special gift
To be there in my stead,
And I hope that you will treasure it
In all the days ahead.
I've left a little piece of me,
A thought or memory,
To help you through your darkest days
And set your spirit free!
So no more tears, but smiles instead
For I am soaring high
On angel wings and happy dreams
Across a star-filled sky!
On days the sun, when rising,
Or when closing out the day
Will cause a lovely orange light
To glow across your way
And that will be my greeting
To you, my special friends,
For now I'm up in heaven
Where my joy will never end! ~~*~~

Your Birth Month is July
Introspective and intense, you tend to be a deep thinker.
You are quiet and spiritual - and you have a unique perspective on life.
Your soul reflects: Lightness, luck and an open heart
