One of the worse things is cancer, even more so when it’s concerning children.

The little girl, Sophie was set to have an allergy test a few day later, but she didn’t get to take that test.

For every parent it’s a worse case scenario, Her parents ran to call an ambulance and within minutes they were on their way to the hospital.

It was just at that moment that doctors finally confirmed that Sophie had a condition that was much worse than just asthma or allergies. She had developed cancer, a T-cell lymphoma.

Sophie has since then spent many months in hospital having chemotherapy, even though fighting it hard the cancer spread.

The treatment affected her ability to talk, walk, use her hands to eat, her tiny body is going through the preparations for a stem cell operation.

There is one post on the page that has especially been welcomed. Moms with sick children will also relate, very likely, to what Shelby’s said.

Shelby wrote:

“I see you. I sit on this couch all day long and, I see you. You try so hard to be unnoticed by me and my child. I see your face drop a little when she sees you and cries. You try so many ways to ease her fears and win her over. I see you hesitate to stick her or pull bandaids off. You say ‘No owies’ and ‘I’m sorry’ more times in one day than most people say ‘thank you’..”

“I see all of those rubber bracelets on your arms and wrapped around your stethoscope, each one for a child that you’ve cared for and loved. I see you stroke her little bald head and tuck her covers around her tightly. I see you holding the crying mom that got bad news.I see you trying to chart on the computer while holding the baby whose mom can’t-or won’t be at the hospital with her.”

“You put aside what’s happening in your life for 12 hours straight to care for very sick and something’s dying children. You go into each room with a smile no matter what’s happening in there. You see Sophie’s name on the schedule and come to check on us even when she isn’t your patient. You call the doctor, blood bank, and pharmacy as many times as necessary to get my child what she needs in a timely manner. You check on me as often as you check on her. You sit and listen to me ramble for 10 minutes even though your phone is buzzing and your to do list is a mile long.

“I see you. We all see you. No amount of snack baskets or cards can fully express how appreciated you are. You are Jesus to us every single day. Our children wouldn’t get what they need without you. Moms like me wouldn’t feel sane or heard without you. You save our babies and we couldn’t do this without you.”

Shelby got 26,000 likes on her post, its easy to see and understand why, all the amazing people at the hospital, the nurses, all deserve to be thanked and recognized for their great work.

Let’s all hope and pray that Sophie makes a fast recovery, and as it happens the family got some really great news, Sophie’s cancer is almost all gone!

Let’s also share Shelby’s words about the nursery and hospital staff so that more and more people can hear about the amazing work they do.

76-year-old Susan Sarandon criticized for her clothing – has the perfect response for haters

Celebrity and trailblazer Susan Sarandon has never been afraid to speak her truth, both in front of and behind the camera. Over the course of her decades-long career, she has won hearts with her unshakable sincerity and enthralled audiences with her talent.

Sarandon has had a lasting impact on the movie business, from her legendary part in “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” to her Oscar-winning performance in “Dead Man Walking.” She stands out, nevertheless, for reasons more than merely her skill as an actor: she embraces self-expression without hesitation.

Sarandon defies expectations in a field where rigid beauty and conformity standards are frequently the rule. Recently, Sarandon responded in her signature nonverbal way to critics who called her wardrobe choices “inappropriate.”

Rather than exchanging barbs with others, Sarandon let an image do the talking. She effectively silenced her critics by posting a picture of herself showing off her body in nothing but underwear and claiming the freedom to set her own boundaries for what is acceptable.

However, Sarandon’s disobedience goes beyond the world of style. At seventy-six, she ages gracefully and wisely, appreciating the value of time and the meaninglessness of social conventions. How does she keep looking so young? a healthy diet, frequent exercise, a lot of laughter, and, of course, an amazing makeup and hair team.

However, beneath the glitz and recognition is a lady who isn’t scared to follow her own path. Sarandon refuses to squander energy on life’s little pleasures and surrounds herself with others who possess the same boldness, curiosity, and vitality.

Susan Sarandon is a living example of the strength of perseverance and self-assurance in a society that frequently aims to limit and belittle people. She exhorts us all to accept our genuine selves and forge our own pathways in spite of the doubters because she personifies the spirit of defiance.

In addition to honoring Sarandon’s indomitable spirit, let’s take her lead by daring to be unabashedly ourselves and choosing authenticity above conformity. Susan Sarandon’s message is loud and clear in a world that frequently tries to suppress individuality: be brave, fearless, and most importantly, stay true to who you are.
