I hate seeing my child so sick. I feel so helpless and alone. I think her medication is starting to kick in as she slept through the night and is currently having a long nap without being disturbed by coughing. When is rains it pours it seems. We had major snowfall on top of everything. I went out last night to shovel and the drifts were up to my waist!!! We were trapped in our driveway and due to the nature of her illness (Pneumonia) I have to be sure we can get to the Hospital if we need to. I bundled her up and started shoveling and was making zero headway and my asthma was kicking in due to me being sick as well. A good Samaritan (our neighbour across the street) saw me shoveling and saw poor Kailey standing watching me and he took care of my snow and this morning moved even more snow for me. I cannot begin to express my gratitude for his help. You just never know who is going to be there for you when you are at your lowest. There are still good people in this world and I only hope that I can pay it forward in some fashion in the future. I am literally alone here and it normally doesn't hit me like this. Normally Jack isn't gone back to back like this, normally we do not have record breaking snowfall, normally Kailey is not as sick as she is...All I can say is I am living for our vacation. I cannot help but think maybe there is a reason all this is happening. What is that reason??? God knows I have had strength tested already. Any ideas?
