What a day

Today my heart aches. We found out today that Jim's cousin's 2 year old son has Leukemia. He underwent a blood transfusion today, and will be hospitalized for a  long time. I know that he will do just fine, and that he is strong enough to recover from this. But I just can't imagine how scared his parents must be. I have been on the verge of tears all day, because the hell that they must be going through is too much for me to even handle thinking about.
It puts into perspective how quickly life can take a turn. But the amount of support and donations that have been given already is astonishing. They have an amazing family and amazing friends, and they will all get through this.
If you are interested in donating anything even $5 can pay for a meal at the hospital. The costs of having a child hospitalized for an extended amount of time add up VERY quickly!! Here is the link

And if you believe in prayer, please say one for this sweet little man!!
