There is upset, worried, even scared; and then there is deep down, shaking you to the core, take your breath away fear. For the last two months, events with my SweetGirl have had me teetering back and forth between denial and panic. There has been fear.
Kids aren’t supposed to get headaches. But occasionally they do right?
It’s not normal for little girls to be covered in bruises. Bruises all over their legs. Never ending bruises….unless said child is a super klutzo like her Mama. Right?
Children should not have back pain that brings them to tears. Aches in their sides that have them cry out in pain. Except she did just fall off the swing, oh and her bike, run into a bush, and fall off a bench all in the same day.
So when one night’s late night tears, and one Mama’s worries become just too much it was time to push the issue, push the Doctors, and find some answers.
My answers lead to this…
a huge sigh of relief.
All is well, SweetGirl is well.
I can stop waiting for the other shoe to drop.
I can breathe again.
Someone once said that having a child is like having your heart walk around outside of your body. No truer words were ever spoken.
It’s joy and pain, fear and hope, all wrapped into one.
It is the sweetest and purest kind of love.
Today I once again count my blessings, give thanks for my children, their health and just breathe……
When our children are happy, so are we.
Wishing you all the best of days.

Oh I would be a total mess with what you described! I’m glad to hear that all is well!
So glad everything is okay! Huge relief I’m sure 🙂
Thank God for your miracle.

There is nothing worse than having a loved one ill or not knowing what is ailing them!
I’m glad to hear your gal is alright!!
It’s hard when they’re sick, feels so helpless. Glad she’s okay.
Oh Steph!!
I am sooooooooo glad to hear that she is just fine!!
<3 and ((hugs))
I am so glad all is well. I was a little scared to read further.
The worry never stops. Kids just melt your heart no matter how old they are. I will probably still be a lioness when they are in their 40s.
I’m so glad your little girl is ok. Kids are such a worry aren’t they. X
Great news!
Whew! I’m so relieved! I get bruises at a mere touch if I don’t get enough Vitamin C, by the way.
The things that can go through a mama’s mind are many and scary! So glad to hear all is well. If it’s any comfort, I still fall and always have bruises!
