It isn't really Nathanael that I want to tell you about though, it is his parents, John and Annette. Nathanael is a severe Down's child with many complicaitons and tonight Annette wore my favorite t-shirt ever "My child has more chromosomes than your child!" Almost nine years of caring for this little guy, all the while bearing and raising his two younger siblings, and surviving a bout with breast cancer. I am totally blessed by the fact that I keep getting to work with these true heroes. Not just in this family but almost everywhere that I go to work, and you way up there in Oregon bearing the unbearable. Over and over I am humbled and in awe of the people that are brought into my life. I learn more everytime that I even think of the challenges that so many others have to face every day. I am blessed by you and your courage...<BR/><BR/>love g.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
