I myself believe in my faith and also some in karma. I think people doing good deads in life will have some good brought back to them. Why my baby girl is sick has made me question my faith lately, but I still have it and pray daily to the lord that he will make her well again.
The thing about all this is Steph was always kind of the trouble child in the household. The one that would talk back, do things you did not want her to do and just make alot of messes. Now that she has been hit with the cancer, her room is still messy. But she never talks back and is the best little girl you could ask for. I wonder alot what is going on in her mind and maybe realizing she may see the lord before planned has made her see things she did wrong in the past and is trying to make them right. I do not know, but it has brought the two of us alot closer than we have been in 5-6 years.
I just want to live to be at leat 76 and I want my Steph to be alive with me until my time to be with the lord.

Scott, thanks so much for posting the picture and the update. My wife asks me about every other day if I have heard anything about "the little Camaro girl" (I told her the story when you first posted it). I believe that things happen for a reason. You might not realize what that reason was at the time, but you will some day. (Quick example, when my wife and I got married, we really wanted an August wedding. For several reasons, the hall was not available for anything in August, September or October. They basically said you can have any date you want as long as it is June 10. We were really upset, but didn't have much choice. 6 weeks after the wedding my father passed away. Had we had the wedding when we wanted, he wouldn't have been there and a very happy event would have been a very sad one.)
Stephanie (and you, your family and friends) is going through this for some reason. You will realize it when it is supposed to all make sense to you. If for no other reason, it shows you the love and compasion that people can have in their hearts (complete strangers sending money, wishes and prayers). That should be a lesson for everyone.
To both of you, never lose the faith, hope and love that you have. For although you are tested and your burden may be heavy, it will be lifted and better days are coming.
