This is all a part of letting go....please, please, please, keep us in the light. She had a better day yesterday but is miserable. "Mama, when I'm done being sick, I can be ME again!" She's an insightly little old soul...~julia

.... and the greatest of these is love.
julia i do believe this is the largest sign of love i have ever witnessed. you and aria truly bless our hearts.
and we thank you from the bottom of those hearts. daily prayers go heavenward for aria and her family and all that love her.
and yes .. somehow .. someone should get this photograph to the 'world' to bring the message of love, sacrifice and healing to all who are suffering.
we are here for you. xo, kentucky farmgirl frannie

Hey Julia,
What a photo!! I will use this on my charity page that's for children as a reminder of "keeping the heart" centered will bring about a wonderful healing.
I think and pray for Aria to stay strong and to know that there is light at the end of the tunnel. And as she's finding out it may go pitch black before the full light appears again BUT it will appear again for her. It definitely takes the village to keep the heart centered and you are surrounded by a large village of loving souls right now!
Keep in touch so we know how to direct our energy in an effort to help the two of you.
Blessings,
Stephanie

I just saw this post and all I can do is think about how lucky Aria is to have you. Even though most of us only know each other from this forum, I feel that we are all connected like sisters. Sisters pray for each other and feel each others pain and happiness. I will continue to pray for you, Aria, and your family. I am sending out as much love as I can for her and keeping a candle lit for her too. I changed my quote recently on here, but I strongly believe that what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. Take care and know that we all are praying and thinking of you and your beautiful daughter!

Julia, my heart breaks with the immense love in that photo, that speaks louder than words; notice how your heart surrounds her little one....she certainly is a tender "old" soul and that will serve her well during this time. I continue to pray for you and your precious little one daily, as do all your other farmgirl friends. "I can do all things through God who strengths me." Sending thoughts of love and courage to you, Nance |

Julia, your love irradiates us. Thanks for letting us be part of your joys and struggles, we are so much better human being because you lead the way and show us what love can do.
I will keep praying for Aria, you and all your family.

I saw your post earlier today. I didn't reply. I was floored and felt like my soul was sucked right out of me. I tried to shake the image. I've got enough to worry about, i thought. I went grocery shopping and to pick up a new prescription. Artificial tears drops. Uummm well, I don't think I need them anymore.
Julia, I don't know you from Adam. But tonight I will be thinking of you, your heroic daughter and your family and sending all the best wishes I can come up with! You are truly an amazing lady! and I think you've put alot of us into focus on what's really important!
Love and Blessings!

it breaks my heart to read these also as my little girl is nearly 4 also and looks a bit like Aria...with long blond hair though. Tonight she asked me to "snuggle cuddle me mama" and you bet I did..she said "hold me tight mama" so I held her and snuggled her close..and yes I did think of darling Aria while I held Hannah.A mama's heart breaks just when their kids have colds..I can't imagine what you are going through Julia.
know that you are being held up in prayers and love. the wagons are surrounded in a tight circle around you and Aria and your family. Prayer does wonders...as does love.The prayers and love will continue with you through this fight.

This picture is priceless. Make sure you have a copy to frame for little Aria as it will mean everything to her when she is older.
I have had a hard time reading these posts about Aria because she is the same age as my daughter and I just can't imagine my Rebecca going through this so my heart breaks for sweet Aria. We are keeping her in our prayers. I know she will get through this but it is hard thinking about her having to go through treatments for two years. I hope that she has many, many days of feeling more like herself in between these treatments. Please continue to update us on how she is doing since I know we are all thinking of her daily!

Whoever said a picture is worth a thousand sure knew what they were talking about. I look at that picture and I see such love, strength, and two souls fighting as one to overcome this disease. What that baby must be going through I cannot even imagine and what you as her mother must feel has got to be just as bad, maybe worse. There is nothing stronger than a mothers love,we can handle anything we need to face to help our children through the darkest of times. God will be there giving you both the strength you need. Thank you for sharing this with all of us. Know Julia that you can always come here and say whatever you need to, we will listen and be here whenever you need to talk.Say whatever is in your heart and soul. God bless and hold you both in the palm of his loving hands.

Julia, Aria is SO lucky to have you! That is unbelievably moving! You should have the hair saved and framed....like in the Victorian era, when people had their loved ones hair framed for safekeeping.
