Re: Jo - Bernie

[Guest guest]

Thanks Bernie, I'm glad my post helped you a little. I know what you

mean about the parents pain in spite of not having children myself,

some days the pain in my parents eyes at seeing my pain is the worst

thing to cope with. My Mum gets very upset at times as she had to

fight so hard to even have me due to fertility problems, miscarriage

and very nearly lost me too....so it seems doubly unfair that my

parents miracle baby ended up a genetic mutant!

But I firmly believe that if I wasn't meant to be here, then I

would be! I don't have the life I or my parents expected or hoped

for me...but I do have a life and that's the important factor. I was

given the most precious gift ever possible and although I may not

have quite figured it out yet I truly believe I was put here for a

purpose too. I have had many of my joys, hopes and dreams taken away

from me in the past year but I still have the things I need to make

a difference in this world - I have a mind to learn, search and

create with, I have a mouth to educate and enquire with, I have arms

to hug people with and most importantly I have heart to love people

with. What more could any one person ever ask for?

Hang in there Bernie and know that in spite of all the pain,

suffering and frustration, I'm sure your daughter is just as

grateful for the wonderful gifts you have given her too.

Love and hugs....Jo

Hi Bernie, I am so glad I could be of some help to you. Knowing that

I can make a difference to you has helped me enormously too, kind of

reinforcing the beliefs and feelings I mentioned I guess! Thank

you :-)

Please know that you and your daughter are in my thoughts and

prayers and I'm here for you if you need me anytime.

Love and hugs....Jo
