RE: 12 Years of being a Mother: How it began and how it changed me for good.
Your story of how you fought for your firstborn Isaiah is inspiring! In your comments you speak of becoming "teary-eyed" as you remembered this, and I wanted you to know that recounting your story made me teary-eyed as well.
We have to fight for our children against all of the "powers that be" who seem hell-bent on destroying them. Someday when I can keep it together, I hope to write the story of fighting for, but losing our precious grandson to cancer treatment.
Thanks for writing this, because it's helped fortify my intention to write that story. I'm only sorry I didn't get here to up vote and comment during the rewards window!
Please come back here an link to your story when you finally write it.
I am so so sorry about your grandson.
Thanks for your wonderful comment.
Thank you, friend @canadian-coconut. I will surely do that.
I suspect it will become a series of stories. There was much pain involved, and I have to evaluate how to tell it without causing more pain to some of the survivors because I have some very harsh opinions relating to conventional cancer "treatments."
I appreciate your encouragement a great deal! :D
Yes, that needs to be carefully thought out.
I feel the same way about conventional cancer treatments too.
When my mother-in-law found out she had cancer, I did so much research for her and made recommendations. She had the money to follow through, and I paid for some of the supplements for her to try. But she never opened any of them, and never sought a second opinion. She went for surgery as per the doctors advise and never came home from the hospital. The surgery killed her. She would have been better off to do absolutely nothing and get many more months/years out of her life.
But being that she was an adult, we both accepted that it was her life and her decisions. We weren't angry in any way, just sad that her and her husband couldn't think out-of-the-box on this one.
I can't imagine those decisions were to involve a child in my family though.
All the best to you,
My condolences to you and your family for the loss of your mother-in-law.
Thank you for sharing your experience and story. I find it grievous to observe what appears to me to be a trance that people are in when they blindly follow the advice of conventional medicine, what I've come to think of as the "medical-industrial complex."
I must confess to experiencing anger at how our grandson's situation was handled, but by God's grace also the ability to forgive. Thanks so much for your very kind wishes. :)
