The words shared this week by a husband and father from Texas are extremely difficult to forget.
“Around 2 a.m., I woke up because Hailey was making a strange gurgling sound.”
“At first, I thought she might be snoring, so I gently pushed her.”
“But her body felt completely limp.”
“I turned on the light and realized she was not breathing. I also could not feel a pulse.”
Those were the moments that changed Jordan Sorrell’s life forever.
Jordan said he immediately called 911 and began performing CPR on his wife.
While he tried desperately to save Hailey, their two oldest sons took their younger brothers into another room so they would not have to watch what was happening.
The family, from Montgomery, Texas, was away on vacation at the time.
For the next 14 minutes, Jordan continued giving chest compressions while praying for any sign that Hailey would begin breathing again.
When the first police officer arrived, he took over CPR until paramedics reached the scene.
Hailey was rushed to a hospital in Custer, South Dakota.
She was later flown to Rapid City, where doctors and nurses did everything possible to save her life.
For almost two days, her family continued holding onto hope.
Then Jordan shared the news that no family ever wants to hear.
“Last night, she passed away.”
The Sorrell family had been enjoying a summer road trip together when their lives suddenly changed forever.
Jordan said doctors believe Hailey may have suffered cardiac arrest while she was sleeping.
However, the exact cause of her death is still unknown.
The family hopes an autopsy will provide more answers, including whether an undiagnosed heart condition may have played a part.
Even while facing overwhelming grief, Jordan made sure to thank the people who cared for his wife.
He wrote that the ICU staff at Monument Health in Rapid City showed his family that strangers truly do care.
He said their kindness and compassion went far beyond their medical duties and continue to bring comfort to his family.
People who knew Hailey described her as the heart of her family.
She was a devoted wife.
She was a loving mother to four boys.
She was always supporting them, encouraging them, and putting the needs of her family before her own.
The public has been asked to support Jordan and the children during this heartbreaking time.
Please share kind words, condolences, and prayers for the family.
Pray that they find peace as they begin facing life without Hailey.
Pray that they receive wisdom, strength, and comfort while waiting for answers.
Most of all, pray that this family is surrounded by the same love and compassion that Jordan said has helped carry them through these painful days.
I woke up and as I had my morning coffee, I realized that everything is about to change. No matter how I vote, no matter what I say, something evil has invaded our nation, and our lives are never going to be the same.
I have been confused by the hostility of family and friends. I look at people I have known all my life--so hate-filled that they agree with opinions they would never express as their own. I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone.
You can't justify this insanity. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind!
• If a man pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him.
• Somehow it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America.
• Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegals voting in our elections are good.
• It was cool for Joe Biden to "blackmail" the President of Ukraine, but it’s an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquires about it.
• People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves.
• People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for their degrees.
• Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated.
• Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate to the US must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate gang-bangers who jump the southern fence are welcome.
• $5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care is not.
• If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free.
• People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President.
• We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, but it seems like a great plan to us.
• Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now.
• Criminals are caught-and-released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it's a violation of THEIR rights.
• And pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us "racists"?!
Nothing makes sense anymore, no values, no morals, no civility and people are dying of a Chinese virus, but it racist to refer to it as Chinese even though it began in China.
We are clearly living in an upside down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where killing murderers is wrong, but killing innocent babies is right.
Wake up America, the great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg, is taking on water, and is sinking fast. The choice is yours to make. What will it be? Time is short, make your choice wisely!
Feel free to copy and paste. I did.
Time for our government to wake up you either work with and for America or get the hell out .. we're tired of paying taxes and you incredibly selfish people don't give a damn for the people you work for... you should all be ashamed of yourself !!!!
For those that still don’t understand what Benghazi was all about:
🚨So here's the REAL story:
Ambassador Stevens was sent to Benghazi to secretly retrieve US made Stinger Missiles that the State Dept had supplied to Ansar al Sharia in Libya WITHOUT Congressional oversight or permission.
Sec State Hillary Clinton had brokered the Libya deal through Ambassador Stevens and a Private Arms Dealer named Marc Turi, but some of the shoulder fired Stinger Missiles ended up in Afghanistan where they were used against our own military. On July 25th, 2012, a US Chinook helicopter was downed by one of them. Not destroyed only because the idiot Taliban didn't arm the missile. The helicopter didn't explode, but it had to land and an ordnance team recovered the missile’s serial number which led back to a cache of Stinger Missiles kept in
Qatar by the CIA.
Obama and Hillary were in full panic mode, so Ambassador Stevens was sent to Benghazi to retrieve the rest of the Stinger Missiles. This was a "do-or-die" mission, which explains the Stand Down Orders given to multiple rescue teams during the siege of the US Embassy.
It was the State Dept, NOT the CIA, that supplied the Stinger Missiles to our sworn enemies because Gen. Petraeus at CIA would not approve supplying the deadly missiles due to their potential use against commercial aircraft. So then, Obama threw Gen. Petraeus under the bus when he refused to testify in support of Obama’s phony claim of a “spontaneous uprising caused by a YouTube video that insulted Muslims.”
Obama and Hillary committed TREASON!
THIS is what the investigation is all about, WHY she had a Private Server, (in order to delete the digital evidence), and WHY Obama, two weeks after the attack, told the UN that the attack was the result of the YouTube video, even though everyone KNEW it was not.
Furthermore, the Taliban knew that the administration had aided and abetted the enemy WITHOUT Congressional oversight or permission, so they began pressuring (blackmailing) the Obama Administration to release five Taliban generals being held at Guantanamo.
Bowe Bergdahl was just a useful pawn used to cover the release of the Taliban generals. Everyone knew Bergdahl was a traitor but Obama used Bergdahl’s exchange for the five Taliban generals to cover that Obama was being coerced by the Taliban about the unauthorized Stinger Missile deal.
So we have a traitor as POTUS that is not only corrupt, but compromised, as well and a Sec of State that is a serial liar, who perjured herself multiple times at the Congressional Hearings on Benghazi. Perhaps this is why no military aircraft were called upon for help in Benghazi: because the administration knew that our enemies had Stinger Missiles that, if used to down those planes, would likely be traced back to the CIA cache in Qatar and then to the State Dept’s illegitimate arms deal in Libya.
Forward this again and again and again until everyone reads the true story of Benghazi.
Overheard a lady saying she won't let her kid watch Peppa Pig because it encourages bad behaviour like "jumping in puddles".
I watched Road Runner as a kid and haven't blown anyone up with dynamite yet.
POTUS says he accepts Biden’s pardon of Fauci. There will be no challenge of its fairness, sensibility, nor the whole auto-pen validity issue. You can imagine what I think about that. Tell me what YOU think:

Here is a sad update from Elsa’s dad, Kevin:
We are heartbroken to share news about Elsa.
This morning, she woke up with a drooping face and seemed confused. Adrienne took her to the children’s ER, where we were told that her leukemia has spread to her brain. The doctors said there is not much more they can do other than keep her comfortable.
She received platelets today and is now back home with us, where she should be. Right now, we are focusing on loving her, keeping her comfortable, and cherishing every moment we have together. The doctors believe her time may be very short, possibly around a week.
Please keep Elsa and our family in your thoughts and prayers. We are truly thankful for all the love and support you have shown us throughout this journey.
I don’t get a ton of engagement, I don’t have a ton of followers, but I’m asking for prayer.
My sweet sister was diagnosed with stage 3C ovarian cancer. If it’s operable she’ll be getting an extensive surgery on Monday and probably a colostomy as well. Please pray for her healing
