A two year old girl with a terrible heart defect had a vision of Jesus

Nobody imagined that little Giselle had a heart problem until she was checked by a routine doctor at seven months. But her short life full of joy ended with visions of Jesus and heaven, a comfort for those who loved her most. "I don't know why Giselle was born this way," says Tamrah Janulis, Giselle's mother. "This is one of the questions I will ask God."

At seven months, doctors discovered a congenital heart defect known as Fallot tetralogy, the most common cause of blue baby syndrome. Tamrah and her husband Joe were completely surprised when doctors informed them that Giselle was missing a pulmonary valve and arteries. "I thought there was nothing wrong," recalls Tamrah. “I wasn't prepared. I was in the hospital and my world has completely stopped. I was shocked, speechless. "Some medical experts said Giselle - the youngest of four children - could live up to 30 years, others said she shouldn't be alive at all.

Two months later, the doctors performed heart surgery and found that the connections between Giselle's heart and lungs looked like "a bowl of spaghetti" or "a bird's nest", with small threadlike veins that had risen, trying to compensate for missing arteries. After this surgery, experts recommended a variety of additional surgical options, some rare procedures considered risky. Tamrah and Joe decided to avoid further surgery, but followed doctors' prescriptions for a litany of medicines. "I gave her medicine every two hours and shots twice a day," says Tamrah. "I took it everywhere and never left it out of my sight."

A bright baby girl, Giselle learned the alphabet at 10 months. "Nothing stopped Giselle," says Tamrah. “He loved going to the zoo. He rode with me. He did it all. "" We are a very musical family and Giselle always sang, "he adds. As the months passed, Giselle's hands, feet and lips began to show a slight bluish tinge, telltale signs that her heart was not functioning properly. After his second birthday, he had his first vision of Jesus. It happened in their family room, only a few weeks before his disappearance. “Hey Jesus. Hi. Hi Jesus, "he said, to his mother's surprise. "What do you see, babe? Tamrah asked. "Hi Jesus. Hi," continued little Giselle, opening her eyes wide with joy. "Where is it? "Right there," he indicated. Giselle had at least two other visions of Jesus in the weeks before her graduation in heaven. One happened in the car while they were driving and another in a shop.

One day in the car, Giselle began to sing spontaneously: "Rejoice! Rejoice! (E) mmanuel ... "He hadn't learned to pronounce" E ", so it came out as" Manuel ". "How does Giselle know that Christmas song?" Sister Jolie Mae wanted to know. According to Tamrah, Giselle had never heard the anthem before. Also, in the weeks leading up to his disappearance, he suddenly starts singing "Hallelujah" as he walked around the house. Cindy Peterson, Giselle's grandmother, believes that the veil between heaven and earth has been slightly withdrawn, in preparation for her rise to heaven. "He had one foot on the ground and one foot in the sky," Cindy believes. "He was joining the worship in heaven."

A week before her disappearance, Giselle was lying on the bed, not feeling well. As Tamrah studied her daughter's face, Giselle pointed to a corner of the ceiling. "Hey piggyback. Hi, "he said. "Where's the horse?" asked the mother. "Here ..." he pointed. She also indicated a "kitty cat" but Tamrah is convinced that she has seen a lion, a glimpse of the wonderful menagerie of creatures that inhabit paradise. A few days later, Tamrah and her husband Joe still did not know that her disappearance was imminent. But four days earlier, Giselle's condition deteriorated. "It was getting weaker and weaker," says Tamrah. “His hands and feet started to tingle and the tissue started to die. Her feet, hands and lips were increasingly blue.

Little Giselle left this world on March 24, in her mother's arms, at home. Joe was hugging mother and daughter on their king-size bed. In the minutes before going home, Giselle let out a faint moan. Joe thought he was crying because he would miss his family. "My miracle is that she lived happily like her," says Tamrah. "Every day with her was like a miracle for me." “It gives me hope of having seen the Lord and of being in heaven with Him. I know he is up there and is waiting for me. "
