"EYE Need My Mommy"

Maci throws up a lot. She has horrible reflux and sometimes just screams from what the doctor said is stomach acid coming up into her throat. Tonight she got sick, it splashed in her face and possibly went in her eye. I immediately flushed her eye out twice while she screamed even more so then before I poured water in her eye. She wouldn't open her left eye so I had to call my Mom. She finally calmed down and opened her eye but I flushed it a 3rd time for my own peace of mind. Maci calmed down again, opened both eyes and was looking around. I felt better.
I then told Maci "see, Mommy is less than a week shy of being 40 years old and I still need my Mom.....I hope you do too at 40!"

It breaks my heart to see her hurt or to be hurt. I cry for her every day...sometimes many times throughout the day. She's just so innocent and I love her soooo, so much that it makes me angry and sad that she battles so many other things besides her kidney disease! It. Is. Not. Fair. Yet I am very thankful to have her, for her to be mine and for me to experience this journey with her. So, every day I cry. Everyday I give thanks. Everyday I pray.
