I remember, after spending the initial 3 weeks inpatient with my 3 year old son, Jeremiah, when we first found out he had cancer, on the way home from the hospital, when we stopped at Walmart, so I could run in for some quick groceries. It hit me in the cereal isle. Some lady was screaming at her little boy who was Jeremiah's age to sit down in the buggy, and having a real fit about it. I just wanted to scream something at her like, "lady, you don't know how lucky you are - my little boy was just diagnosed with cancer!" But instead, I just stood there, doubled over, crying hysterically. I lost it. Everyone around me must have thought I was some crazy lady. Finally, I regained my composure, and hurriedly grabbed a few things to purchase, and headed home. But life would never be the same again. My view on it had changed. I, too, am thankful that now, 3 1/2 years later, Jeremiah is still here to do the simple little things - like ride his bike, wrestle with his brothers, wiggle a loose tooth...and celebrate Thanksgiving. Praying for Sam regularly. Glad to hear he's doing well. Blessings, Sandi Queen I understand, Margot.
