SherryMH's blog: "Eh."

I know of this beautiful lil 11 year old girl named Orchid. She has fought the fight against cystic fibrosis bravely. This precious angel lost her battle finally. She had a gorgeous smile and her father said her giggles were heart warming. This brings it home for me. 11 years old. How much time do we have with our precious angel? How long can Blake fight this horrid disease? The first thought I have every morning is "is he doing ok today?" Any infection can damage his lil lungs even more and there is no making them better. Not to mention his lil digestive system and needing to gain weight. I try to stay as positive as I possibly can, but I also know the facts about cystic fibrosis. I look into his big brown eyes and think of what could have been. He is so sweet n good. He nor any other child deserves this. Lil Orchid isn't suffering anymore. She can finally breathe easy, but I know I am being selfish when I say I don't want to lose my grandbaby to this nasty disease and I can't help feeling this way. Please do one favor for me.... The next time your child is getting on your nerves, look into their eyes. Stop and think how lucky you are to have healthy children and how much worse it could be. Love your babies with everything you have.
