"LOVE GOD with all your heart
and your neighbor as yourself."
The Torrans Tablet
"I am worried about Michael," the pediatrician says. "His tests for the normal childhood diseases, strep throat, chicken pox, bladder infection, and ear infections came back negative. And there is a problem with his white blood cell count." Thus begins the possibility of leukemia.
I am worried about Michael. His big beautiful blue eyes look tired because of high fevers, rashes, lethargy, not eating, not drinking, not sleeping, and just wanting Mama to hold him. And there seems to be no reason. Thus begins more tests and me watching him like a mother bird.
I am holding my twelve month old baby Michael. His tests have come back. And no cancer has been detected, though the doctors are still monitoring him. Thus begins relief to flow in my mommy heart.
I am thankful to JESUS that Michael is doing a little better. His blond hair is the sunshine of my life. And the L word leukemia frightened me like no other word ever has. Thus I cling to the other L word. Love.
