Amazing things can happen to us; and sometimes, we are left with no choice but to DEAL.
Like this story of a little girl who began to experience PMS at the age of three, got body odor at the age of 5, started to get her periods at the age of 8 and started to wear cup C bras at the age of 12.
We have to deal with life's surprises, gifts and tragedies. Deal. Deal. Deal. These things measure our strength, tests our beliefs, and ultimately reminds us that we are human. Mere humans -- pawns to life's little jokes.
If you were asked --
What would you do if you were carrying twins and the other twin died, so you thought you were left with just one twin to carry through term, just to find out later that you were carrying another fetus that was fertilized in a latter time?
What would you say?
You basically end up with two babies, both your own, fertilized on different times, with one fetus older than the other by three weeks. Amazing story, huh?
This woman had to DEAL. She was blessed. One was taken and another one was given.
Or if you were again asked --
What would you do if your little boy is dying of cancer, seemingly without any hope of getting cured? Would you continue with treatment and operations or would you just wait for him to pass away if he has mere 18 months to live?
What would your answer be?
This woman chose to wait for her son's death. It was not easy. It didn't mean that she did not love him; but that she let go of herself and her desires for her little boy.
The question is -- do you think she gave up on him?
2 Gorgeous People Said --:
The question is, did she make the most of her time with him. If treatment was devestating and could not ultimately help this boy, she was doing this out of love.
Some of the stories from the "Make a Wish Foundation" are very heart-warming. They make the imposible last wishes of a child possible, by grants to their families.
Very interesting question, and a hard one at that.

Speedy,
The question still haunts me.
I don't really know what I would do if I were in her position. I just can't give up on my daughter's treatment, but I also know that I'd probably cannot see my daughter suffer through more treatments.
I still do not know.
What would you do?
