In reflecting about this, I thought back to everything we have recently been through in the past two years. A brain bleed, deaths, a move, advocating in the school, ADHD, anxiety, depression, change of boss at Kirk's work, and now severe lower GI issues with Isabella. I thought to myself just two weeks ago everything was running smooth, but then poor Isabella got sick again and I thought why me again and how in the world am I going to deal with this? I thought about Esther in the scriptures again and how she had to exhibit courage and strength in her life. I then thought to myself I have to be strong because being strong is the only choice I have and God blessed me with that gift. I can do hard things including helping my daughter get through this tough time. I'm her example and I need to show her my courage and my strength because this is how we are going to get through this.
