Stop the Pain
Sheila Stover’s Story
In the wee hours of morning on May 14th, 2008, my sweet mother, Sheila Stover, laid her head to rest and passed away before she could raise it up again. At only 53 years of age, the Lord had called her home. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever known. Though she was not well known by many, those who did know her knew that they could trust her with anything. She was a prayer warrior and was so often doing work for the Lord that no one else could see. The world will never know how truly blessed it was to have her in it, and now that she is no longer here with us, she will be truly and dearly missed. I was her only daughter and we spent many hours each day chatting, shopping, and just being best friends. My life is does not feel complete without her and I cannot wait for the day that I see her again in heaven. My momma suffered through 20 years of diabetes, ten of those with heart disease. After a triple bypass, a mild heart attack, and two stints, her heart simply gave out as she slept. She went to sleep with suffering, and woke up with her Savior. This loss has left a gaping hole in my life that I am trying desperately hard to allow God to fill, but it is so much harder than anything else I have dealt with in my 27 years of life. This loss is worse than my being diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at age ten, worse than straying from God’s will and becoming pregnant at age 18, and worse than the abusive marriage that I have endured as a result. I would gladly live all of those events over and over again if it meant that I was able to stop the pain that I am feeling without her here.
