Six Years: Does it matter?

Today a friend of mine is going to the funeral of a six year old boy. This boy has an interesting story. His parents adopted him when his birth mother told his mom ("Linda") that she would have an abortion unless Linda adopted her baby. Believing that the child’s life should be spared, Linda agreed to take the baby. The family had six wonderful years with this delightful young boy. He was diagnosed, only two months ago, with an inoperable, malignant brain tumor. He is now in heaven with his Maker. God bless the courageous family who adopted this boy and gave him six years of life. God bless those who believe that all life is sacred - from conception to natural death.
