Blessings

Just so you know - today was better, sickness wise. :)

 

Today I couldn't help but think about a blessing God has give to us.  At just the moment when Calleigh's medical bills started adding up, God sent Dewey.  No one can really understand the blessing that the entire Hughes family has been to not only me, but my entire family.  So much so that they are an extension of our family.  But even more than that, Dewey has decided that he wants to help with Calleigh's medical bills by running a marathon to raise money for her.  I am literally in tears as I think about how much that will help and mean to us.  I know most families feel the pain of the economy right now, with or without CF, so we feel so blessed.  God also blessed me with the time this week to have the bank account set up for Calleigh, which was amazing!  Now I just have to figure out how to link the pay pal account to her facebook and this blog so Dewey can do the same........ anyone?? anyone??? :)

 

Seriously, I honestly cannot fathom what I would do without the family and friends we have.  Even the friends/family we don't see often still radiate their love to us in various ways.  We never feel lost for love or prayers, and I pray that Calleigh always acknowledges that love from God as He shows it to her through her friends and family, among other ways. 

 

Today's prayer for Calleigh:  Lord, even as it may be redundant, I pray for my daughters health.  Please fill her lungs with beautiful air, chase away pollution and harmful bacteria so she may always know the beauty of a full breath in her lungs.  Please keep her pancreas clear with from blockage and help enzymes to digest her yummy formula and baby food.  I pray that she will KNOW you, not just know OF you Lord.  And thank you for the way her face lights up when I come near or when her daddy reaches to pick her up in the mornings.

 

PS.  In the future, I will try not to write these during lunch at work.  If anyone were to look at my desk right now they would see me in tears just thinking of my lovely precious Calleigh and the blessings in our lives. :)  lol
