It > certainly made us very aware. Yes, I can understand that . I can totally see where an experience like that could be the impetus to doing the great things you've done with the other kids. Still, you are to be commended; lots of people would not have taken the risk again. It IS true though, isn't it? How life's hard and even bad experiences shape the people we are, the decisions we make later, and the way we live our lives. That's truly why we have to accept the bad with the good, right?!?!?

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2002 Report Share Posted May 15, 2002 Donna, Actually if Beth had not spent so much time in the hospital and passed on in the end we probably would not have gone on to adopt all the other kids. It certainly made us very aware. & Garry, parents of (11 ds), (10 ds), JJ (8 ds/autism/celiac), (7 ds/ADHD/Celiac), and Esther (5 ds). All adopted. ---------- >From: duffey48@... > >Subject: Re: Anything new..... >Date: Wed, May 15, 2002, 12:25 PM > >In a message dated 5/15/02 11:23:54 AM Eastern Daylight Time, >Scherb@... writes: > > >> .

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2002 Report Share Posted May 15, 2002 Donna, Yes and some times it feels like more bad than good. We have done so much in the last 12 years or so. 2 girl have died, 5 heart surgeries for the kids, (I have had 2 at 17 and 23), tube feeding for 9 years, Autism, ADHD............I culd go on but don't want to bore anyone. Or have anyone raise me to sainthood. But my kids have given back to me in joys many times more than the bad times. They make me smile every day. & Garry, parents of (11 ds), (10 ds), JJ (8 ds/autism/celiac), (7 ds/ADHD/Celiac), and Esther (5 ds). All adopted.
