Yesterday would have been the 28th birthday of Shannon Lee McBride. Alas, Shannon died on July 29, 2003, from complications of a simple tonsilectomy. She suffered from a nicked artery during the surgery, and bled off and on for days following the procedure. Shannon tried over and over to get medical attention for the problem. In fact, on the day she bled to death in her father's arms, she was sent home from the hospital without any diagnostic testing to determine the cause of arterial bleeding. Shannon was the victim both of terrible chance and human error--and a wonderful young life was lost.
We salute Shannon's life, full of vitality, family, and friends. And we honor her parents, her sisters, her wider family, and her many friends. Nothing is lost to the Lord. Nothing is lost to the Lord.
