Your Mirror or Mine

by JHSEsq

Today’s post is rather life affirm­ing. Our author Phara has expe­ri­enced one of the worst things a par­ent could imag­ine. Eleven years ago her three-year-old son was diag­nosed with leukemia. Three years later in 1999 things took a turn for the worse. The Make-A-Wish Foun­da­tion con­tacted Phara to lift her son’s spir­its. Her son wanted to meet his favorite star, Robin Williams. And for­tu­nately, Phara’s daugh­ter was a per­fect match for a bone mar­row trans­plant. Phara’s blog is Your Mir­ror or Mine has con­tributed an excel­lent post. The post is enti­tled And Now the Rest of the Story tells of their visit with Robin and show us her kids today, who seem to be doing great! The Ris­ing Blog­ger is please to award this post from April 25, 2007 our Post of the Day. You are a brave woman, Phara. Thanks for shar­ing your story!
