A long, hard, beautiful road...


The reality of it all has set in and of course, completely overwhelmed us. While we spend our days searching for information, calling our friends, telling people of our news and networking with others to try to get the best possible care, our spirits are kept strong by just one thing. Lily. She has never changed, she has remained the same beautiful, cheerful, giggly girl that we have always loved so much. It is hard to be sad when you see her smiling face coloring at the table or throwing a ball in the hall and saying "cat" to let the cat know she wants her to play with it. She still loves when I sing to her, she still loves bathtime more than anything in the world, she still wants Mommy to read her her books before going to bed.

I feel blessed that she still wants Mommy to pick her up, that she still allows me to comfort her and I still feel hope that some day I may hear the words "I love you Mommy".
