A Few More Things

....about our trip to Cleveland.We got reacquainted with one of the biggest miracles I have ever had the privilege of meeting and her name is Breanna. When she was 18 months old she fell from a balcony and there was little hope for her survival. No she isn’t a normal 11 year old but she is one determined young girl. Everyday that she is on this Earth is a miracle from God. She is very intelligent, it is quite obvious that she understands everything that you tell her but she can’t form the words to tell you what she thinks or feels. She will do almost anything ask of her unless she is showing her determined side. She wants so badly to do things for herself that it is inspiring. Her feet and ankles are weak but she doesn’t want to be stuck in a chair all of the time so she crawls around the house and goes where she pleases. She has trouble feeding herself but she continues on and does her best at it. Seeing her should make us all feel a little bad about ourselves. I was amazed at how well the kids did with both her and her little brother. They were so helpful and considerate. Matt insisted on pushing her wheelchair and Audrey was great to help with both of them. It was a great experience for them all, I think. To see how good God has been to them and that sometimes things do happen to people who don’t deserve it.

Let's look a little closer though.

Yes, the teen is definately still there!!
She would have been sooo dead if she dropped it!
