Moved and Humbled

After listening to Nelson and Terry’s Valentine’s Day for the CCA all day, I feel humbled. My struggles are minute and temporary, my hardships are never life-threatening. Meanwhile, there are brave kids half my age facing incredible turmoil and trial who have amazing resilience and contagious joy for life. I have never been tested in such a way, and I hope if I ever do face such a situation, I would handle it with half of the dignity, optimism and determination that the families Nelson and Terry have spoken to. And if I were supported half as much as today’s families are by the Children’s Cancer Association, well, I would certainly be blessed. Nothing like a little perspective to put you back in balance.
