I awoke early this morn...What a gift you offer us! I awoke early this morning and began my normal: worry. After wasting fifteen minutes of imagining and fretting about things that haven't even happened yet, I got up and asked God to help me. He brought to my mind you and Gideon, among others who continue to struggle with significant, not petty, real, not imagined crises. Thank you for all that you share so artfully and heart-fully. My prayers continue for your family's difficult journey.Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07833852219302098245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686489679814886752.post-47636213734902410502011-07-28T00:56:55.069-04:002011-07-28T00:56:55.069-04:00Oh, I have sooo been there.

She rebuffed me; I know it wasn't me she rejected, it was the dignosis... that stomach turning, bile churning diagnosis that is too vile for a parent to keep down. <br />1 in every 320 kids...Malcolm's Momhttp://www.makenoise4kids.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686489679814886752.post-25632228186383992332011-06-30T10:19:55.679-04:002011-06-30T10:19:55.679-04:00Beautifully spoken.Beautifully spoken.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06076566022045283593noreply@blogger.com
