May 21, 2010


Your fever finally broke today! We are so happy because that means that the bad bug you have might be going away. We just have to keep hoping and praying that you don't get any more infections. They told us that you were born without an organ called a spleen. One thing a spleen does is to help you fight infections. They say that this is the reason why you probably got so sick with this. So from now on you will have to take antibiotics everyday for the rest of your life. It would be really easy to say that this is so horrible and hard to deal with, but I don't think that we give enought credit to our modern day miracles. Not just the obvious miracle, that you lived, but everyday miracles. That we wake up, and can breath on our own, and be able to talk, and the list goes on and on. We get so caught up in having our life go so perfectly that we forget about all the miracles that are going on around us all of the time. Never feel sorry for yourself because there is always something to be grateful for. Nothing is for sure, every minute of every day is a gift, and we need to give credit to God for all that he does for us.
