My problems seem very insignificant right now, after reading about this little angel child & her wonderful parents. Most of the physically & mentally challenged people that I've known have the most fantastic dispositions, they take things in stride that would terrify me - submitting to that many surgeries, trusting a seeing eye dog to lead you down the street when you are blind, going out by yourself in a wheelchair....I have so much admiration for these people. In an ironic way, God has blessed them in special ways. I've had very good friends that have been severely disabled, but I admire them more than I can say.

Have you seen any of the shows on tv about the doctor in Little Rock who operates on people who have some disorder which lets bunches of blood vessels grow on the face. Some of them are so huge that it takes many, many operations to get rid of most of it. The kids are wonderful and they usually have the surgery while very young before people start making fun of them. Makes me appreciate my family more.

Oh give me a freakin break...I am so pissed off now I can scream. You think this is an Angel from God? this is a genetic mistake. It used to be that nature took care of these things, and if a baby was not supposed to be, it wouldn't be. I'd like to know how much medical intervention was put into saving this baby. This is misery for the child, I won't even tell you what I think about parents that would put their children through that kind of misery. I cannot and will not make believe that this is some kind of miracle. She can't breathe on her own nor eat on her own. This is God's will? It's man's will. There are things worse than death. And spare me your inspirational stories. I want to puke right now.
