Lord, I think I have too much on my plate. I also have a huge knot in my right shoulder blade. I lift these things up to you :)
My heart is breaking for my friend's little sister. Her name is Maci. She is six years old and she has a brain tumor on her brain stem. It's inoperable.
I just keep thinking of the day I met her. She was four at that point and was practically attached to her bike. She didn't know how to brake, however, and started rolling down a huge hill into oncoming traffic. Without thinking I dove in front of her, stopping the bike, catching her when she fell, and scraping all the skin off of my forearm. Her family kept joking that I saved her life. I wish I could dive out in front of her now. I don't even really know her, but I just can't imagine. When I think about things like this, it puts a sucky job and a knot in my right shoulder blade in perspective.
