Crohnie Girls

Crohn's Awareness Week: While in the hospital in November, Grace became friends with an 11yo girl newly diagnosed, and a 15yo girl diagnosed 4 yrs ago who had once gone w/o food for 9 months! They called themselves the "Crohnie Girls" and hung out in the craft room on the GI floor, painting and talking. It was therapy you can't pay for or get from the best of the best psychologists. It made me smile and tear up at the same time. God knows just what He's doing with these precious girls. I loved that they found comfort and camaraderie in such an unlikely place. Pray for a cure for these girls and thank God for how He cares for us in our times of need.
