ON THURSDAY YOU MIGHT GATHER YOUR FAMILY AROUND A DINNER TABLE IN YOUR KITCHEN.

Not far away, on a counter sits a beautiful white orchid.

And under and around that orchid are the bits and pieces that tell about your current life.

Things like antibacterial wipes you must always have with you because of your daughter’s compromised immune system.

A pharmacy bag for the prescription you picked up today.

An emises bag that has become a regular part of your daily supplies for your little girl.

A book titled Childhood Leukemia which is now on your daily reading list.

Yes, some pictures just say more. Please say a prayer for my friends who are facing this reality right now. I’m constantly inspired by the fact that they are thankful even amid this new reality.
