A very special moment

Here's a link to a video that meant so much to me this last weekend, on our second Annual PJ Day. The Grade One classes of Hana's school (Thanks Mrs. Morgan and Mrs. Koss, and JES) sang a very special song from the time I've been dealing with WG. Hana and I used to cuddle together and sway to this song in the early days and as time went by we could dance to it together and the words, although simple to some, really pushed me forward. I indeed felt stronger, bit by bit, and the more strength I gathered the more I knew what needs to be done. How we can change things with our voices, standing together as one. Together we are something else, something bigger, we are strong, and we can overcome this sly beast of a disease that until now has had it's strength in being segmented. By bringing all those pieces together we can now look at the beast as a whole and see where his weakness is and hopefully eliminate the problem so many have to deal with daily, just by getting together in on the fight against autoimmunity.

So when I saw these kids performing it I knew how much strength it had given me, and I could see things turning for the better already. Together we can fix things, by all of us finding the best part of us we can find and use that part to guide you. We all slip and fall sometimes, but if we keep trying, we can change things and this moment inspired me this weekend: http://youtu.be/8yhAkA7TVk8
