I'M B A C C C K K K [:)] (From my treatments lol [:D] as someone has suggested [:D] [;)] ) And of course I want to do my part to . . . entertain, inspire, encourage, educate and enlighten our "readers", so here we go. Now for the . . . . Sunday Funnies I believe this is very fitting for Sunday. I hope you enjoy it. Well the link I originally provided won't work, so I have had to copy and paste the story. I must give credit to "Joke of the Day" for this story. Andrew#8217;s story was shared with me by his mom Jennifer. Here it is, in her own words with our thanks. My son was born January 1996 and all seemed well. After a long difficult pregnancy, the arrival of this sweet baby seemed to be the end of our problems. However, there would be another path for us. In August of 1996 I rushed my son to the local hospital only to learn that he had a silent but deadly disease, Neutropenia. Neutropenia, (A.K.A Kostman#8217;s Syndrome), is the bodies#8217; failure to produce enough white blood cells called Neutrophils that are vital in fighting off bacterial infections. Now, my little angel had an ear infection, but since he did not have these Neutrophil cells, he never ran a fever and there was no indication that he was sick until he developed labored breathing. My family and I were told by the specialist that we should prepare for the worse. They were unsure that this sweet angel would even survive the night. When the doctors left the room, I immediately picked up the phone to my dearest friend and could only sob. I never said the first word, I just couldn#8217;t stop crying. Yet, she knew, and she said "Jen...okay" and began to pray. She prayed for my son, my family, and for the Lord#8217;s will. I prayed, too, like I never had before! I simply explained to God that I knew he had the power to take my baby back home, but I knew he also had the power to heal him and let him stay with me. And I asked the Lord to see fit to allow my baby to remain with us. I promised to never take a single second of our time with our sweet baby for granted because I had learned the value of time, of children, of prayer, and of miracles. Andrew is approaching his eighth birthday. I know deep in my soul that the power of prayer and a miracle kept our family whole. I soak in every second I have with him; every single story he tells, ever laugh, every tear, & even every tantrum. I know that we were given a second chance, and I intend to absorb it all and pray I never have to let go.
