Every da...It gives me a shiver thinking about it. <br /><br />Every day there are people doing ordinary things while a loved one passes away. It doesn't mean we can't do ordinary things. I do know what you mean though. I can imagine quite vividly the waiting room chit chat or what not and why you are a little freaked out thinking of what was going on at the same time. But that's how life is. I'm just so glad the A line was placed and Harlie is with us, showing her strength and determination EVERY.DAY!<br /><br />Much Love to you!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16092188894818322564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834405754301414360.post-71545914204489866822011-02-11T09:01:29.458-05:002011-02-11T09:01:29.458-05:00Wow, Christy - as I sit and try to imagine what it...Wow, Christy - as I sit and try to imagine what it must feel like to hear that your child had to be brought back to life I am absolutely horrified and I know that it can't hold a candle to what it was actually like for you facing it. Thank goodness her doctor wasn't swayed by "it is only a quick 45 minute procedure" and went with the A line!<br /><br />And a year later she's on her way to gymnastics. What an amazing gift...she's really living life! That is a testament to her spirit and to yours as well. There are plenty of parents out there, especially after a scare like the one from a year ago, that would hold even more tightly to their children and not let them venture out into the world. It says a lot about you and Tom that this isn't the case for your sweet girl.<br /><br />I have to say that your comment about enjoying some quiet time while all this was happening really struck a chord. As mothers we don't get enough time to ourselves (and you less than most!), but we would all trade it to keep our children safe. That is a good reminder to see the gift that the chaos of children can bring to us. Nonetheless, we all need those breaks where we can get them!Brittanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16047331290922285424noreply@blogger.com
