Every once in a while I run across a guest book entry that is especially meaningful and touching. This one especially meant a lot to me right now so I wanted to post it here in the blog area.
Becky,
I was at the grocery store this weekend, alone because all five of my children were driving me crazy and one especially had disappointed me so badly that I was truly heartsore.
I came across the Chicken Soup Book and read your entry. I stood there waiting for a self serve checkout and read away, letting the tears fall and realized that even though my daughter had fallen short of my expectations and truly hurt me, that I was ever so grateful to have the chance to go home and hold her close and help her work through it.
I think Sarah once said that she wished to know the purpose of her cancer, and you can tell her that there is one Mom in Canada who is holding her own little girl closer to her because of Sarah.

Bridget, you'll never know how your entry brightened both Sarah's and my day. Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience.
