Enjoying Some Ice Cream

Makhi is making progress.... The ACTH increase really seems to help put the tremors to rest. I still notice them when he is overheated,tired,or when he becomes upset but this has always sort of been that way. Today Makhi will complete his last day of pre-school... Yeah for Makhi!!!! He makes me so proud everyday. Just 8 months ago Makhi could only use 2 words together and now he is talking in complete sentences. It may not be very clear all the time but he is talking and I could not be happier. The last 2 months of school Makhi started to ride the school bus like a big boy and it was so hard for me to send him ... but now I realize how proud he is of himself that he did something on his own. He gets off that bus everyday and flashes his big smile at me and says "I rode the school bus by myself" He really is growing up. It is so hard to believe that he will be 4 Nov 20.

Yesterday I readed something that just broke my heart... Little Danyelle Reynolds passed away Monday at the age of 7 she was diagnosed with OMS a year ago..... After reading this I just felt so helpless..Her poor mother Janice . What do you say to a mother who just lost her precious baby girl. Please pray for this family and for strength for them as they face the unimaginable loss of there little girl Danyelle. May God be with them.....


Why Mothers Cry


"Why are you crying?" he asked his mom.
"Because I'm a mother," she told him.
"I don't understand," he said.
His mom just hugged him and said, "You never will!"
Later the little boy asked his father why Mother
seemed to cry for no reason.
"All mothers cry for no reason," was all his dad could say.
The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering
why mothers cry. So he finally put in a call to God, and
when God got on the phone the man said,
"God, why do mothers cry so easily?"
God said, "You see son, when I made mothers they had
to be special. I made their shoulders strong enough to
carry the weight of the world, yet gently enough to give
comfort. I gave them an inner strength to endure childbirth
and the rejection that many times come from their children."
"I gave them a hardiness that allows them to keep going
when everyone else gives up, and to take care of their
families through sickness and fatigue without complaining. "
"I gave them the sensitivity to love their children under all
circumstances, even when their child has hurt them very
badly. This same sensitivity helps them to make a child's boo-boo
feel better and helps them share a teenager's anxieties and fears."
"I gave them a tear to shed. It's theirs exclusively to use whenever
it's needed. It's their only weakness. It's a tear for mankind."
