![]() ![]() This is my place on the web dedicated to my sister, Becky. She died at the age of 12 from a condition known as Hypocardiomyopothy or Enlarged Heart Syndrome. We (her doctors and family) never knew she had this disease since it is very difficult to detect. We know that it is very probable that she was born with it but other than that we don't know where this came from or why it was brought on - most cardiomyopic patients don't experience symptoms untill they are in their late teens to early twenties. However, Becky never really had tell tale symptoms either. She was always rather overweight and had a hard time with heavy physical activity - but we always attributed that to her weight and being out of shape. It wasn't untill after her death when the doctors took x-rays of her chest reavealing a heart about the size of a basketball that simply could not take it anymore. Knowing this, I am thankful that God brought her home. Had she survived she would have certainly needed many operations, medications, ect...

When we were cleaning out her room after her death, we found that calendar torn off to April 25th and that was the message on it...hmm. "Coincidence is really God trying to tell you something." ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
