LauraPerhaps that should have been the topic. Because for me, if I don’t find something good in CAH for my child, or have my child find something good in it how could we function? I don’t think anyone here that is giving positives are saying, "God I love CAH and am SO glad it has woven it’s nasty self into our lives without even asking. I love staying up nights watching my kid puke, or fevering not knowing if I have done enough to sustain their health, and some days sustain their precious life. I loved to watch my daughter endure the many blood work afternoons where she would beg not to get a shot at three years old and then having to hold her down in order to get a safe draw. I loved to endure the hours that passed by her bedside when she had her surgery, or when she was admitted for some nasty virus that at home care could not provide." My list can go on. We have endured the weight gain, we have endured the rest of the crap that CAH brings and yesterday I was at my peak of hating CAH. We have awesome days and horrific days where I curse the word CAH. Yesterday was one of those days I cursed the word. I logged on to see, ’Why CAH is a good thing". Let me tell you the few choice words I used as I verbally gave my opinion why CAH was a "good" thing because I wasn’t feeling warm and fuzzy about it yesterday. BUT BUT BUT...... as I started to read through the threads my load lifted. My attitude softened, and my day got a little brighter. Thank GOD for threads like this. THIS is what gets me through it all. I really don’t think we wanted a parade of "WE LOVE CAH!"I think what Danny intended was a moment for everyone to put a positive spin on a horrific thing we call CAH. Why not? Yes it all sucks. That is why we need to ask ourselves once in a while, what good can we find in CAH? And then try and search for that little ray of sunshine. If you don’t give yourself that opportunity, the clouds will never go away. And trust me, yesterday my clouds weren’t going anywhere. So I thank you for those who dug deep and found those rays of hope. I needed them desperately. I am happy to say today is a bit overcast, with periods of sunshine peaking through, but I do see sunshine ahead in the forecast. I see it because of the silver lining that God gives to us. It’s all we have to go on.
