Life Happens

     A new girl is arriving today, she hails from Rhode Island and goes by the name of Becca. She'll be here the entire time that I am so that'll be fun having a new face around--though, in all honesty, meeting new people is kinda hard sometimes.
     Anyway, today was interesting. I visited MyLIFESpeaks, a non-profit organization with a heart and focus on special need kids. They have a vision of making the community self-sufficient and really are just amazing folks working their hearts out. Also, a little one-year old who has been hospitalized for 3 weeks died today. The mom is 16 (she was 14 when she was pregnant) and devastated. Although it's tragic that the child died, in some ways, isn't it a relief? The kid had numerous health problems whilst the mother didn't have the ability to properly medically care for the child. It's strange that death can be the unexpected answer.
     Hope all is well,
xxLeah
