so , lately i've been going back and forth to the hospital to see my lil cuz thats been staying there for about 2 weeks-almost.
he's a bubbly 5 year old diagnosed with leukimia just a few weeks ago, and so are the other patients in the same room as him. some are still very small-babies to be exact, some are toddlers and some are almost in their teen age.
some have spent their childhood in their beds, and how would that feel ? they're all still too small to suffer this much, sometimes i just can't bare to watch them getting injected, going trhough chemotherapy and seeing they're hair fall off one by one. gooosssshhh its sad, its heartbreaking !
how would you feel if you knew that YOU were seriously ill? well maybe i'd be crying to the max and maybe start to become hopeless in many ways.
well, did you know that these children in that hospital were far from hopeless. they were bright, smart, cheerful, bubbly, encouraging, inspiring- well you can name it all the goods things. they didn't look as though they were going through any illness whatsoever- well only when the doctor comes in and gives them their injection and medicine.
they had fighting spirits, and i mean BIG fighting spirits. they were'nt any different from any other normal healthy kid. you could see the hope of getting better in their eyes. some had been in the same bed for 8 years, like a 15 year old girl i talked to. her name was rini, she suffered from telasemia (which is kinda like leukimia, but this relates to the red blood vessels). well rini is 15 , but she has a physical appearance of a 7 year old kid. she is very cheerful and likes to play with the hospital nurses. shes been medicated for 8 years but she never gives up, so do her parents. they always believe that there is a way and that rini can still live her normal life.
and so as ali-my lil cuz, he hasnt changed one bit since he was diagnosed positive leukimia. still playing with his friends, screaming, hide and seek, eating the same things, just doing his children things.
children inspire us in many ways. eventhough they might not think like an adult, or act like one. they're the ones that make an adult think and act in a proper way.
never give up on hope, cause theres always a light at the end of the tunnel.
to all the children out there, keep inspiring , and touch those many hearts out there.
get well soon ali <3 get well everybody !
