“She overcomes obstacles.” Graft vs host disease, two bone marrow transplants, septic shock, and 325 days spent in the hospital away from home. Through it all, God has been incredibly kind to us, and Leah is evidence of his compassion and mercy! The rights to this music are not mine.
Leah has severe congenital neutropenia and is five years old. On 2/7/14 and 3/29/16, respectively, she received her first and second bone marrow transplants. She is getting well from GVHD.
People who suffer from severe congenital neutropenia are more likely to get infections again. Neutrophils, a type of white blood cell involved in inflammation and infection defense, are insufficient in people with this illness.
These amazing conflicts are being won by this youthful warrior!
We are reminded to count our blessings more frequently by videos such as this one. We are quite fortunate to have what we do, and it is always sufficient. In the end, we always regret thinking we have less and needing more.
While people all around the world struggle to get food and water, we get to choose what we eat, and we even get to choose which of the numerous sinks in our homes to use!
Be thankful for what you now have at all times. While wanting more is acceptable, simply being on this lovely planet is a pleasure. Remember that!
I really needed to watch this amazing video today!
