A section from a letter to one of my friends:
I still can't believe this is happening to us, it really seems surreal to this day. He looks so pail and sickly now. I took him to wal-mart yesterday... I had to get some medication on the way home from the hospital. I look at him all the time, so he doesn't "different" to me anymore. However, everyone was staring at him...I forgot how bad he really looks. It was sad... I started to cry in the store. It just hit me... I live with it every day...but I don't mentally deal with it every day. We just except it, and do what we need to do to keep Jaden on a path to remission. Anyway, it was just hard to deal with... it comes in waves. One time I was fine... then I looked at a photo of him when he was 4. He looked so healthy, and pink cheeked... I started crying then. Often we take for granted how healthy our children are...until they are not anymore. I pray that I never take anything for granted again!!
Hug your kids today!!!
Love in Christ
