Sierra

I am sitting here, yet again trying to understand why another child has to die. I'm wondering how many of our children have to suffer from cancer before we are outraged. Some will say that childhood cancer is rare; I'm sure it doesn't seem so rare when it's your child. Our children are fighting this beast with drugs that were made for adults and they ravage a tiny body. The treatment is often what kills our babies. It just isn't fair that even after they have fought so long and so hard that they pass.
My heart is aching for the Kessler family right now. They were given a wonderful gift that was taken away way to soon. Sierra has always faced challenges with a smile. She was born with Downs Syndrome and later diagnosed with leukemia. She recently finished treatment for leukemia and within days she had relapsed. She was able to reach remission again but her body was exhausted from the fight. Sierra entered Heaven's gates yesterday morning. She leaves behind an amazing family and adoring friends. Please pray for Sierra's parents, brother and sister. I can't imagine what they are going through right now.
