Welcome To My Reality~

February Prompt #16

16. Who had the greatest impact on your life, in a positive way, and why?

Hmmmm...there are a few people that I can think of that have made a positive impact on my life....and even more that have made a not so positive impact...

However....I must say that Raegan, my youngest daughter, has had the biggest and most positive and life changing impact on me. She was emergency c-section at 26 weeks...weighed 1 pound and 10 ounces...she was a micro preemie who spent the first 10 months of life in the nicu...she came home with a trach, feeding tube and stoma that we cath to drain her bladder. She has had 39 surgeries with more to come in the future. She will be 13 years old this July. She is my hero...she had no idea what life had to offer and she fought so hard to be here. For all that she has gone through and goes through on a daily basis, she has an amazing personality and outlook on life, she is so caring, kind and thoughtful. At Christmas time she came to me and asked me to help her put something is everyone's stockings...she had taken the time, on her own and her own idea, to write everyone a sweet little note and it was so thoughtful. We have no idea what the future will bring but we will make it through no matter what. She has taught me to look at life in a whole different way, to not take things for granted, to stand up for what I believe in and how to be a stronger person. She truly is an amazing little girl who has made the biggest impact on my life in the most positive of ways!
