Why?
I just got some news about a niece of mine. A little girl whom I adore. She is having some medical problems right now, and I am so upset. One thing I never understood is why children suffer. Why God allows them to lay in a hospital bed in pain, while the rest of us are helpless to protect them from such things. This stems back from when Selena was a baby. All the countless times she was admitted to the hospital, IV's in her arms, feet, and even the top of her head once. Breathing machines hooked up, pulse ox machines beeping...her unable to breathe, in pain, fighting for her life. They are so innocent, and our one and only job in life is to protect them, but there are just some things we cannot protect them from. I remember thinking, let me take her place. Let me suffer. She does not deserve this. She shouldn't have to go through this. That is what I am feeling right now. Helpless, confused, and so crushed. I trust in the Lord, but sometimes I wish I could understand the why's in life. May God bless Lya and heal her little body from whatever is causing her pain and suffering. Our love goes to her and all the innocent children in this world who are suffering right now.

I ask myself why everyday too. My child has DMD and is now within that age range where something could go wrong. All the advances in modern medicine and still no help. The biggest thing that eats at me is why though.. Some crackhead does a guy for money and conceives.. Though not an everyday thing,some have babies with no problems what so ever. Why does my child get something like this.. Anyways.. I know how ya feel.
Hopes and prayers are with ya.
