I got an email from a friend from HS the other day. Then I called her and we chatted for like 2 hours. It was very productive. Turns out that everyone from our group is on Facebook, and I wasn't. So I joined. Ugh.
So. Resistant. To. Change. Aaaahhhh!
But now I'm reconnected with all these people who knew me when I wasn't such a nice person. Stupid teenage hormones. I've mellowed a lot people, I promise I am not that girl anymore. For the most part I avoid confrontation at all costs. Surprised?
But the saddest thing is a blog that I found for one of my friends. She was not a HS friend but an early marriage friend. She has a little boy the same age as Caden. And he has Leukemia. I cannot tell you how long I sat and just cried and cried as I read his story and looked at pictures. My heart aches for him and his struggle, and for my friend as well. I just can't imagine going through that with one of my kids. To find out more about them go here. You can also buy t-shirts and see pictures on their blog here.
They have a fund set up, if you feel able to open your heart and donate toward his recovery, I know that they would appreciate it and so would I. An account has been set up at the Bank of America (The Charlie Kennedy Family Fund) for those who would like to make a financial donation to the Kennedy's. I'm guessing that it costs a lot of money to drive back and forth from their home to Children's and back again.
Thank you, in advance.
