Praying for Mary

August 20, 2012 by fabfrugalmama

Any parent’s worst nightmare is that something bad happens to their child. I’m so blessed and grateful to have never been put in that terrifying situation, to date. But I can only imagine what a parent goes through when their child is inflicted with a sudden illness and they find themselves being air lifted to one of the best children’s hospitals in the country.

As we speak, I’m on my way to visit a young family member who did just that last night. The moment I read this morning’s email, telling me of the illness, tears sprang to my eyes. I cannot tell you how thankful I am to have such amazing medical resources in Canada, and can only hope and pray that when I arrive there, all will be okay.

If prayer is part of your life, please say one for little Mary.

    Oh my goodness! Sending a steady stream of prayers and thoughts for little Mary! It's heart wrenching to think of a child being in that situation and I'm also thankful that I haven't had to go through that with my kids (to date). My daughter's severe peanut allergy reaction was the scariest day of my life and I don't want to experience it again. Hope all is well soon for them!!!

    I will be thinking of Mary, her family and yours during this trying time.

    I am here if they want someone to listen or talk to. I can empathize with their terror.
