I'm Rich Bitch

I never was one to think to do this, but right now, my wife and I are desperate for answers. Recently, my youngest daughter Ashlyn Grace, fell ill. It was originally diagnosed a stomach virus, but since then, her health has worsened. We have three seperate doctors tending to her and none of them can figure out what is wrong with her. Every day when the doctors are set to release her from the hospital, something new is revealed and she has to stay longer.
Today she had a fever that lasted all day. It topped out at 104 degrees. She is only 3 year's old and is completely helpless. Everyday she cries to come home and everyday we have to tell her, "soon." She was always a little petite little girl, but if you see her now, she is nothing but skin and bones. It literally is breaking my heart to see her this sick. My oldest daughter (who is 6) cries everyday wanting to know when her sister is coming home. I am a tough guy and don't show my emotions very often, but this is breaking me down. My wife has been a champion and has been by Ashlyn's side in the hospital for days now. She has been strong for Ashlyn, but I know that she is a wreck inside. I know that some of you don't particularly care for me, but this isn't about me. This is about my daughter and a way for her to get healthy once more. If you all could just say a prayer for her. A little something, anything I know that God will answer. My faith has been severly tested this past week, but I know deep down in my heart that God is by my side. God bless you all. |

I will pray for her every single night until she gets better Brian. I'm so sorry you, your family, and Ashlyn have to go through this. This brought tears to my eyes. I'll be praying for you guys. God Bless

Brian stay strong, faith will pull you through this. I am praying for Ashlyn to get well.
Could it be a viral infection. A co-worker had to rush to her daughter the other day at work and the doctor found that it was a viral infection she had. Just something to ask the doctors. Hang in there.

I'm sorry to hear about that, Brian Damage. I will keep your daughter, Ashlyn, in my thoughts.
Your story also reminds me of one of our instructors. She's in Texas right now because her 8-9-year-old son (middle child) keeps collapsing, so he is in a children's hospital in Texas at the moment. What is going on with these recent types of news? This is all scary news, but all of my thoughts on everyone. Anyway, I just hope everything will be all right for everyone. |
