Thank you God

I didn't know where else to post. There is a cyster who is about to lose her child and it tearing me up inside. Her little girl is only 8 months old and has a terrible, incurable disease.
I have cried many times for them and I can't stop crying tonight. Every time I look at her little picture, she reminds me of my DD and how close I was to losing my DS to a hole in his heart when he had to have emergency open heart surgery when he was 3 months old.
I wish they could find that miracle. I wish that this beautiful little baby girl wasn't going to die. I wish the Mom doesn't lose her precious daughter.
I know no one can answer the age old question of "Why", I have always tried to believe that things happen for a reason, even if we cannot see that reason or don't understand it. But how could this have a reason?!?
After having gone through infertility, the scare of potential spina bifida, almost losing my DS, infertility again, the scare of potential down syndrome and/or another major heart defect, I am so thankful for the miracles in my life.
Thank you God for the miracle of carrying a life inside me.
Thank you God for giving the Doctors the knowledge to heal my son.
Thank you God for giving my son the strength to survive open heart surgery.
Thank you God for a wonderful son who is healthy, happy and kind.
Thank you God for answering my prayer for another child after my Mom passed away and I was feeling such a huge hole in my life.
Thank you God for blessing me with a healthy, beautiful, cheerful baby girl.
Thank you God for my family, I am so grateful for them and I love them so much.

That made me cry also. I wish there were words to comfort you and the mother, but there isn't. You are in my thoughts and prayers. *many hugs*

Emilycyster and Kalyn, thank you so much for responding! I was feeling so overwhelmed that evening about the little girl who is sick. I believe in miracles (I have two perfect examples of them asleep in their beds tonight!) and I believe in the power of prayer, and I try to understand that not everyone can be saved, but it just is so sad to think about and it makes me so thankful for the miracles in my life.

Thank you for thanking God, He deserves all the glory and honor and although we dont always get the "big" picture in His plans, just know you are in His heart and i do hope that this little girl receives her blessing.....
