A few of the blogs I follow were created due to a stressful or traumatic time in the writers life. There are a few that I really have to stop and collect myself as I read them and, to be honest, at times have to full out avoid. I hope that I never have to go through losing one of my girls. My heart breaks and yearns and cries out for the parents who have had to go through such a horrifying experience and I could not even imagine the pain and torment that they must have gone through. I met a women in my town who gave birth to two beautiful twin boys one of whom at 15 month developed cancer and passed away only a few short months later. She was incredibly strong and has since become an amazing advocate for cancer research geared towards children. I could not help but ask myself what I would do if I was in her shoes. Would I be able to advocate my child? Would I be able to stand in front of a crowd with her picture and not crumple into a ball of pain and anger? I pray that God would allow me to heal and to have peace but I am just not sure and hopefully will never, ever have to find out. I could not imagine looking into the face of one of my daughters as she grew knowing that her sister would look the same way if she were still here or hearing her speak and know that that’s what her sister would sound like if she could still speak to me.
