Each time I have gone to Medical Center of Plano I have entered the emergency room doors but gone straight to Labor and Delivery where Shelby has been. But  each time I've glanced over trying to remember the sequence of events the morning of June 7 , so recently I went back . It was important to me because I am not one to avoid things or to shrink back with fear now. I approached a woman in admittance and told her my daughter died in June and I wanted to revisit where we were. I began to cry and she walked me back. I sat in the consultation room where I learned the news and I went to the room where I saw Alexis Rose Washington. It was hard but I did it and some healing and closure took place. I love it when I'm brave , at one time I had no courage. I know where my strength comes from , it comes from the Lord.

 

 The room they sent me when I arrived at the ER to see Alexis on June 7

 

The couch I was sitting on when they informed me of her death 

 

Where I went to see Alexis , she was laying on this bed. She looked so peaceful . I just thought they might be wrong, I wanted to beg them to make sure but I didn't.
