Praise God 10 years no drinking you should be proud of yourself it is a testament to your strength and to God's strength and love always walk with him and keep up the great work God bless you
I used to watch my son ride down the sidewalk on his Big Wheel, or play ball with the neighborhood kids, and think "they're all going to grow up except him". I didn't know then how good God was going to be to us. I wanted so badly to write something beautiful that would show people that picture of kids playing, how important it is to find a cure. Thank you, Tammy, for writing that song. Daniel turns 40 this year. Thank you, God.
I discovered this beautiful singer back in (2000-2001) whilst in high school… Tammy’s two brothers Shawn died from Cystic Fibrosis (CF) at 15 years old. Her young brother Alan was 24 a few years later. I've cried for hours. Tammy’s voice in “Angels In Waiting” was (and still is) so beautiful.
I have cystic fibrosis, I was lucky enough to make it as far as I did, I am now 28 and was blessed with a child (non cystic fibrosis), I am not an emotional person, maybe its from me growing up very sick, But this song makes me tear up because it hits home. I know being 28 is a blessing, and i'm aiming for an extra 12 years to watch my child grow up. Maybe even a cure will come along and I will get to see some grandbabies!
It's been 9 years since your comment. I hope you're still with us. My wife has CF. She is 42. We have a 14 year old. I know she has the same wish as you.
This song has a permanent place in my heart. I lost 2 brothers to CF. I was born between them. I never had the chance to meet my older brother, he passed right after they found out I was on the way. A year after I was born, my little brother joined the family, 3 babies in 3 years. David lived to be 12, and for all those years he was my best friend. Our parents never hid the fact that he was on borrowed time. He once told me if he couldn't make someone smile everyday, why was he here. I promised him I would keep his mission going. I try to make everyone smile every day for the past 44 years. Every smile is a tribute to an incredible kid. Thanks for the beautiful song. You say what my heart feels.
This song came out when I stared dating my High School sweetheart who had CF. I cried when I first heard it. He since passed in 2012, though we didn’t end up together, I’ve become friends with his wife, and he has a beautiful daughter he never got to meet. I think of him daily, and donate monthly to the CFF.
This song is my daughters song she was born on may 2nd 2004 and passed on august 31st. She lives for a little time but made a big impact in my life. We had this song at her funeral and now when we all hear it it reminds us of her, she was angel waiting for her wings. RIP Laura mommy and your 2 brothers love you and miss u so much!
I remember riding the school bus from school to my home at the age of 8. This song played on the radio and I instantly felt emotional without even fully understanding the meaning of it. It's so beautiful and heartfelt! God bless this woman!
I lost my son to CF almost 11 yrs ago. I've listened to this song many times. It gives me heart to keep going. My son Kelly was predicted to live to the age of 5... He was 26 when I lost him. This son sings of how I remember him. He now has his wings.
This song reminds me of my brother who passed away from Juvenile polycystic disease. He passed away at the age of 42. I miss him so much. I know he is in Heaven. I love and miss you Lee so much.
I have CF and I turn 19 march 27 and I cry when I hear this song I hurt everyday in the lungs it's hard and you try to be strong because your family needs you but I'm not scared to be an angel but I'm scared to leave the ones I love so much I just wish I could be pain free for at least one day I'm strong hearted around people because I hate being weak. Love to all CF people we will be free from pain one day.
love1kiss2:I wish I could have something really good to say,I mean something to help you in your time of pain.All I can say is that I love you and please don't give up.You have so many people who commented to you,so we do care.Bless you.
While I was pregnant this song played over and over. My daughter was born with Cystic Fibrosis. I believe Angels were telling me before she was born. She's my beautiful CF warrior. 💜
My gson has this terrible disease which he's fighting like a hero. This song makes me tear up everytime though. God bless u Tammy Cochran & all who have this disease. ❤❤❤
Your story brought tears to my eyes so thank you for sharing,I prayed once for the Lord to show me a light Straight away i see a light shoot across the sky.I ended up seeing five one for each of my Grandchildren.
My sweet sister in law song this song at my 6 yrs old nephew funeral in 1999 and at my 29 yrs old sister's this song touches my heart dearly and cry everytime I hear it. Thanks for the beautiful song
I can sing along with this amazing song, sometimes, but sometimes I can't, it makes me cry from deep down inside, when I think about all the loved ones that went on before me and are waiting for me also, such a beautiful song thank you so much, god bless you and keep you
This song Makes me think of my Friends that I lost from the Army. Baker, Bullington, Callahan, Schiebel and Correa. I love and Miss all you guys so much. I’ll see Y’all Down the Road. Speed and Power Raiders First ❤️
i was also live with cystic fibrosis, i am so blessed to have made it as far as i have, i will b 36 on dec 26th this yr. it is a hard road n life, to have to deal with, live life to the fullest with no regrets
This song is a song you will always remember and love. If this song does not bring tears to your eyes then you have no heart. You can truly feel the emotion in the song, great work Tammy.
I watch this video whenever I feel selfish about my small troubles in life, to realize how blessed we are to be alive and enjoy the fruits of the earth regardless of tiny problems, instead of fighting for our life. Be happy you walk above ground, every day is a blessing. What an inspired wonderful song.
Heading to Colorado day after tomorrow for my fathers murder trial. He was killed in 2019. His 2 sisters, my aunties both took thier own lives within the year that followed. This song randomly popped into my head tonight. I think it was them. So beautiful. What a masterpiece.
My son has CF an I luv him with all my heart.And I pray every day tht he out lives me cuz I would'nt know what to do with out him in my life.I luv u William Robert Givens Jr.

this song breaks my heart. I lost my sister to CF while she was waiting for new lungs. She became my Angel on 12-06-02 six days after her 28th birthday. we played this at her funeral.
My Babygirl Jade Brianna Maldonado was taken from us this past September 2018 from a hit and run driver here in San Bernardino, CA it's just so hard to be without you my love, I'm trying my hardest for your little brothers. I Love you Always and Forever my beautiful daughter, love Mommy.
Makes me think of my brothers ...i lost both of them in 2001. Both died of heart attacks. 3 months and 2 days apart. They were 34 and 36, there my angels in waiting.
After having digestive and respiratory problems before even turning 1 year old the doctors gave my daughter a sweat test for CF. One day when getting in the car , while waiting for the results from this, I heard this song. This was very emotional and a scary time while waiting on the results. After all tests it turns out that she is a carrier but does not have CF. So therefor we have to continue to worry about this when she is grown and having babies of her own. Amazing that this song came out at the same time. Like it was meant to be heard at that moment.
To all those suffering with cystic fibrosis or any other terminal Illness I say dont give up hope. Dont give in to the darkest thoughts brewing in your mind. There is light even in the darkest tunnels.
my anut and my grandpa and my great grandma were the closest people i knew and they all passed away really close together and they had cancer to and now they are my angels in wating .. i miss them so much .. im glad they are not in any pain and they are watching over ..!! love u guys and miss you guys soo much!!:)
To my best friend Polly I love u just a sister I never had miss my sister now have no more pain. Say hello to God for me. Say all love ones and brother and sister too
I lost a Granddaughter who was born with spinal muscular atrophy she was only 1 month old. We all miss her. At the time I dedicated this song to her. She truly was a "Angel in waiting" ♥️😢
I definitely believe in angels. My Mom fought with breast cancer for 4 years. After many kemotherapy treatments, and a double macetomy she lost the battle Feb 14,2022. I know she's pain free in Heaven .My angel watching over me now. I miss and love you Mom until we meet again R.I.P ❤
I lost my twin boys Braxton and Rowdy this april they would have been eight years old and i miss them so much and i know they are up there watching over me and there brother and sister!!! mommy loves you boys so much and i think about you all day ever day!!!!
I couldn't believe that I've heard this song A long time ago and I heard it on the satellite radio and I wanted to hear it again and when I heard cystic fibrosis I broke down and cried I lost my son Justin in 1994 at the age of 2 months to cystic fibrosis yes your brothers and my son are angels in waiting love to you
This hit the spot. My brother who was 3 years older than me was born with scoliosis . I watched him everyday sometimes struggle. He was my best friend. Drs said he wouldn't live past 7. He passed away a month and half after his 28th birthday. He had 27 surgeries in his life. I miss him everyday. He was my best friend and to me he was a hero. I took care of him and helped him out. He stood 3 foot 5.
I believe in Ångels because I was visited by them. I love all your music and my daughter loves this story like I do. We both sat and cried. I love you and your beautiful family ♡♡ God Bless you and your beautiful family🙏🏼 They are Ångels as all babies... so precious. Stay close to your children and family.♡♡
YOU DO NOT NO ME I THANK YOU FOR PUTTING YOUR STORY ON HERE FROM MY FAMILY TO YOURS GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR SON AND YES HE IS AN ANGEL IN WAITING FROM A FIREMEN TO ANGEL YOUR MOM LOVE YOU
I cry every single time i hear this song. Because i think about my brother who had down syndrome who passed away june 20th 2009. 6 months after his 40th birthday. THeres not a day that goes by that i don't think about him or miss him and this june it will be five years that doesn't seem possible to me still feels like yesterday. But i know that hes my angel in waiting. And that he is not sick anymore and he is happier. I also think of my god sister who is my other angel in waiting she passed away may of 2014. But shes happier.
At the time this song came out I lost a brother. He was a police officer and he was killed in the line-of-duty. We had so many great times together in the police academy and on the streets. I didn't know the back story to this song, I just knew that I now have an ANGEL IN WAITING! Thank you for such a beautiful song. RIP Officer Derek Owens, Cleveland Police, 3-1-2008 EOW
This is such a powerful song with a soulful vocal delivery only this singer could pull off- I love everything about it - God Blessed those 2 little boys with an awesome sister
This song touches my heart so much. My son has CF and we have had a very rocky road threw out these years. He has legally died 5 times now and thank the lord it was not his time and he sent him back. He is going to be 22 in August, but he never believed he would make it past 21, but he is and thank you Lord
