An Inspiratinal Moment
Okay, Anna I know you do inspiration for the week but I had to share this because it was so cool.
This morning, tired out of my mind and frustrated after staying up most of the night taking care of a teething fussy baby, I had dragged my ass to CVS to pick up some meds for Malcolm when this random stranger, an older gentleman comes up to me and offers me a cheery good morning. I grunt back at him and the next thing I know he stops, rounds on me and says:
"I no longer have MS."
My response is "Congrats....I have a teething 9 Month Old."
"I had MS for 9 months, but its gone now. I could hold your kid if you want to. I have three children of my own."
"No, he's home."
"Do you know what MS is?"
"Multiple Sclerosis?"
"Yes! And I don't have it any more!"
"Congrats."
"Have a good day!"
Can you imagine, being so bursting with happiness and new lease on life, you just had to stop and tell the first person you saw, even if it was a grumpy frumpy new mom? I can't even imagine how elated he must have felt when his doctor told him "You don't have this life ending dibilitating disease anymore?"
Absolutely, god's honest amazing.
After he walked away, I realized how simply miraculous life can be.
And thats my inspirational moment for the week.
