Get Well, Baby Seth
I cannot imagine being a parent to a sick child. And I’m not just thinking about your normal childhood sickness. Think conditions that are difficult enough for adults to go through, what more if you were a 3 year old kid?
Our world was rocked last week with news about a colleague’s three-year-old son being diagnosed with Stage 4 Liver Cancer. We are trying to be creative in finding ways to extend help. No, they have not asked for it (not that I personally know of), but why wait? We’re thinking of having a newspaper and PET bottle drive so that all you need to do is bring scrap, no additional cost to you. Another suggestion that came up was to setup another coffee machine. All profit goes to helping the baby’s medical expenses. We just don’t know if that one will be allowed.
Ang hirap. No matter how well you’ve been taking care of your baby, even if you give them all the vitamins and supplements found in vitamins.net or inside Mercury Drug, you just can’t protect them from all illnesses. On the surface they may seem healthy, ayun pala there’s something that just hasn’t manifested yet. It can be scary to think about.
Still, giving birth to another human being and having the chance to bring them up and shape them to become better versions of us, is a blessing.
Baby Seth, we’re praying for you. I haven’t met you personally, but I’m rooting for you.
