Last night I had an expected blessing, definitely an answer to prayer. As many parents with a child with a chronic condition know, you feel isolated by the disease. I've really been feeling this lately and just praying for God to send me someone who understands.
Last night, prayers were answered. At church, I met one of our new members and her daughter was diagnosed with Juvenile Arthritis as a child and is now grown with her own children, one of which has arthritis. We exchanged information so I can meet her daughter and Isabel can meet her granddaughter. They are also a soccer family and the granddaughter is Isabel's age, so we have something besides arthritis in common!
Isabel has developed headaches which we think might be related to medication so she is off the Piroxicam for now and will start something new on Monday. Prayers she'll have some relief.
So far, today is a good day. She turns 12 today and said she felt 12. That's good!
Have a blessed day!
