Hopeful Hearts

Last week was a long week.  Rick and I shed a few tears over knowing how to help our sweet daughter. We had taken her to insta care, to the emergency at primary Children's hospital and then stayed four days at the hospital having 2 MRI's trying to figure things out to lessen her pain. Then we went home only to have her in pain the next day.

 The next week we found an integrative health person to take Ricki to and she felt better for a few hours after the visit. What a relief when she started getting up and talking of school.   We felt our prayers were being answered. The timing was perfect for her improving health.  She had asked a wonderful young man to the Sadie's  dance at the school and through the help of some sweet friends that went the extra mile Ricki was able to get to the dance. She had so much fun and came home on cloud nine talking more than she had all week. We have seen over the past 18 months that it has been those sweet acts of kindness that have given her the needed strength and hope to face her challenges and rise above them. I am gaining a greater understanding of the power that love and kindness can have in one persons life.
