Caelee--My Little Angel
I'm back! I love to read other folks blogs. I love to blog when I have something that I think will encourage someone. I hate it when I get too busy to blog or when I don't feel that I have much to contribute. So, here I am--returning, hoping those that read my blog will not become exasperated with my on again, off again, attempt at this thing called, "blogging".
My 6 year-old grandaughter is such a source of joy and delight. She is silly, funny, pretty darn cute, persistent, curious, energetic, helpful, and just about the best little side-kick anyone could ever ask for. She is my little "angel". You may or may not know that Caelee basically saved my daughter's life (Charity). Charity had a rare form of ovarian cancer called dysgermanoma, when she was only 18 years old. At Charity's first ob/gyn appointment, the doctor said, "there's a mass on Charity's ovary. I need to refer you to an ob/gyn oncologist. We had a wonderful oncologist that said the chances of the baby surviving would be much better if we would wait until the second trimester to remove the dysgermanoma. I was so concerned about Charity that I really didn't want to postpone surgery (by the time the mass was removed, it was the size of a small football!), but Charity and Chad did--they desperately loved the little one "wonderfully made" by our Heavenly Father. Caelee was born about 4 months later. The previous surgery had not harmed her in any way. If Caelee had not been developing, there would have not been any reason for Charity to see an ob/gyn and the cancer probably would not have been found in time! Caelee was a messenger from God, directing Charity to go to the doctor to save Charity's life!!
I cringe to think that if things would have gone the way that I thought they should, my special little Caelee wouldn't be here, today. I thank God for His Wisdom, His timing, and His love. "Every good and perfect gift is from above."
