Whenever I pray for her and Adam I am praying for you and Cale as well. I used to work with a wonderful woman from Beulaville! It's such a small town I bet your family knows her family - Diane Blizzard was her maiden name. Anyway, it's a small world and I'm happy to have made your acquaintance. I'll continue to pray for you and Cale as you walk through this difficult, difficult time. Keep your focus on the Lord.

I am sad that you are struggling an...Dear Kathleen,<br />I am sad that you are struggling and wanting a child so badly! You have so many years ahead of you and I do believe you will have a child someday. I just feel it in my heart!<br />Also, Cale may be starting to connect the dots in his head and realizing he has some deficits right now; or maybe he is frustrated and cannot understand why he cannot control certain body parts or functions.<br />I had 2 brain bleeds 5 years ago and it took 7 months of therapy before I could start a normal life again. I would attempt to do something, like count money out to the store clerk and realize the money in my hand have no meaning to me. I did not know how to count money! I was ashamed and scared, I had no idea I had lost that ability until I needed to use it. There were other discoveries like that along the way. I finally recovered and relearned many tasks. I also had problems with studdering which worsened when I did it as I was self consious about it. I would become very depressed and mad at myself when I was going through this. I also felt that no one knew how ashamed or alone I felt. I still occassionally will studder, or search for the correct word I need when I am talking. I have forgotten some things that happened in the past. But I am much better and most prople do not know until I tell them. My injury was not nearly as bad as Cales, but even with some small losses or deficits, it is possible for some functions to be relearned. I am not the full person I was before my accident, but I have learned to live with it.<br />I hope this give you a little hope for your future. Day by day it can be gruleing but if you look back he is really doing better than I imagined he would have considering how badly injured he was. <br />Sorry this is so long! : X<br />Remember we are all praying for both of you!<br /><br />All my love,<br />Lorri CAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
