I'm hoping this will be my last post like this for a while but I wanted to let you all know that Kim Bloom, Lundra's mother, died last night after a five month battle with stage-four liver cancer.

If you remember from right before Christmas, I posted about the Bloom family. I grew up next door to them and babysat their son, Kyle who is now 20. Five years ago they adopted an 11-year-old girl named Lundra. Lundra's birth mom died when she was three and her birth father died when she was 11. She's an amazing girl and babysits for my children.

Anyways... five months ago her adoptive mom, Kim, was diagnosed with stage-four liver and pancreatic cancer. She fought very hard, but lost her battle late last night after being under hospice care for two weeks.

Lundra is only 16 and she has lost her third parent. Life is so unfair sometimes. Thankfully the family has a strong faith in the Lord so they know that Kim is dancing with Jesus today in heaven. If you pray, please pray for peace for the family that Kim left behind and healing for them as well.

Thanks so much girls. This has been long few months filled with lots of death and suffering for many people in my life. I pray for a bit of a break for a while...
 
i'm still just heartbroken from when we talked earlier. that poor sweet child of God. i pray that lundra never forgets how much her mama loved her and that she always feels her mother near!! my heart is bleeding for this family!!
 
I'm so sorry, Jenny. That little girl will be taken care of; I'm sure of it. Life isn't fair, but it will be made up to us later. {{{{HUGS}}}}
 
I'm so sorry Jenny. There is so much death lately. I lost a friend yesterday afternoon to cancer as well. Hugs and prayers with all of you. :(
 
I will pray, if I can find the words. This whole situation makes my heart hurt too. I lost my mom at 10 and my grandma (a second mom to me) at 14. I never have a day when I don't miss their presence. It hurts. But I believe God has bigger plans than what we can understand... and I will be praying for Lundra.
 
Will keep all in my thoughts and prayers....How very sad....This young lady has already had to suffer so much loss in her young life....
 
I am so sorry to read this update, Jenny. I know it sounds silly, but my nephew calls me 'Lundra' as his best attempt at my real name, so this story has stuck with me all this time. I was really praying for a different outcome.
