Resilient

November 7th, 2009
Posted in children, family

Resilient.  That is the word I would use to describe ‘B’.  He was diagnosed with a rare leukemia at just 9 sweet years of age.  Although chemo has kept him isolated, sick, tired, out of school and has begun to take his hair this boy has amazed me.  ‘B’ has an obvious love for life that I’ve never seen in such a way before.  During our session he smelled the air and said ‘It smells good out here’.  The things we take for granted on a daily basis this family can no longer.  Where I worry about how I’m going to keep track of my kids at Walmart doing my shopping this mom worries about what germs she is going to bring home to her son.

Lisa, you have helped me to remember to take life one day at a time because it’s the NOW that really matters.  You are an amazing family with an undeniable love for one another…and a spirit that others need to see.  Thank you for sharing your son with me, truly.

Now on with the show.  :)
