August is SMA awareness month. Here is a picture of Lizzy and her friend Kyla.
Lizzy is my hero.
I have not posted in so long and I apologize. I have been so busy these past few years its hard to even find 15 minutes to just sit down and post.
My dad has surgery again tomorrow to remove skin cancer on his arm. Its supposed to be routine but when you are 80 years old nothing is routine. Add him to your prayers please.
Lizzy has been doing great except for her sassy mouth at times. She is the worst when I am doing her last treatment before bed. I do not know where she got the mean streak but, I do not appreciate her attitude and how she thinks she does NOT have to do treatments at night. I make her pray after she does this and ask God to help her not be so mean. Not sure what causes her sweet demure to turn into a smarty pants little stinker at night. It will stop or her mother can do her treatments. She is beautiful and a great kid the rest of the time. I guess "Welcome to preteens"
My family has been cleaning my dad's house out that had 5 generations of stuff in it. We have found a lot of cool stuff, creepy relative pics from the 1800s, dust and a lot of junk. My gosh this has been the most over whelming experience in my life. Its been just 6 of us doing this. I mean this house was packed from the basement to the attic. We cleaned this out without central air in 90 degree weather. It literally kicked my hiney. I lost 12 pounds in a week and I believe it was from all the work I did! You find out a lot about people when it comes to hard work. The ones who show up and the ones who has better things to do. Sad, but very true. Almost done. I am amazed of the work we have done and how much has been done.
I was upset last night as I watched a child with SMA dying on facebook. It tore my heart out I could not watch it anymore. The sweet little guy earned his wings this morning around 7am. How could a mother record her baby dying? Some people are "social media' Crazy. All I could do was pray for the little guys so he did not have to suffer. Not everyone thinks like me or feels like I do . I fight for my kids and grandkids. They are gifts from God. To watch them just die and do nothing is to me a terrible sin to me. Fly high sweet boy fly free from your suffering.
Summer is almost over and fall is sneaking up. Where did the time go?
Lizzy's mom is expecting a baby boy in November. Kolton Paul Huette will be his name! Lizzy is excited! He is SMA Free!
Thank you to my friends for keeping up on us and sorry again I have not updated sooner.
