no words...

There are no words to say when you have a friend is dealing with her daughter's fight for life. There is nothing to say....so hard to comprehend...I am heartbroken... that my friend's sweet little 8 year old can go from having joint pain last Friday...to have bone cancer with multiple broken bones, lung lesions and and given less than a 10 % chance of surviving.

Life is precious...I am sure today that I will not care if the house is clean...or if i have gotten enough sleep. Or if a bed is not made. I will not nag...or scold...or yell.

I will choose to love, and encourage and hug and snuggle and welcome my 2 sweeties that want to crawl in my bed at 6:00am when I want to sleep. I will welcome them with open arms...We will not watch the clock...we will enjoy our day today and have fun...we will make memories...

Thank you God for today...Pray for little Reagan...she is in pain and needs a miracle.

I agree, no words. I know a few children that are dealing with cancer and I can't even imagine.... we will keep on praying for a miracle.

Tears are flowing....

I, too, will take time today to focus on what is important and to PRAY for little Reagan and her family.

Cancer sucks! (My students wear t-shirts that say this and it is the only time I allow them to wear a t-shirt that say's "sucks"....because it's true.)
