So Sad
Posted: 11-07-04 14:53pm

Ok so on the weekends I volunteer at the childrens hospital down town, well there is this little boy named thomas he is a four year old and such a cutie!! He is so polite and everything is please and thank you...He has been in and out of the hospital for a 3 over a months, he was diagnosed with lukemia...So this last time he got really sick when his family went camping and they called flight for life for him Crying
or Very sad anyways he always ask's the nurse's if I am there today well yesterday I was and so I went up to see him....He asked me why his parents always cry and if they were mad at him ...I told him no they are not mad at you they love you sooo much they are crying because they want you to get better so you can go ride your new bike..(we, the volunteers bought him a bike, when he got out of the hospital the last time..) then he goes well tell my parents not to cry anymore because its not there fault I am sick and it makes him feel sad when they cry....His parents are both a reck as you can imagine....I said well its ok to cry he said but that means your are sad and I dont want to make them sad....Oh my gosh I was about to loose it but I didnt want to cry infront of him...Then he goes well when I learn to ride my bike will they be happy again? I said they are already happy hunny they cant wait for you to ride your bike!! Anyways then he just changed the subject and asked if I could go get shreck for him to watch ----i went to holly wood video and bought him the movie and I little donkey stuffed animal and he was sooooo excited to get it!! He called me today to ask me to come watch it again with him! So I am going in about 2 hours....It really is a rewarding job to volunteer at that hospital it is also really hard sometimes but I just thought I would share this with you all.....

Yea like I said it can be a real hard thing to do but at the end of the day it is soooo rewarding ya know!!! They offered me a full time job there but I thought about it and I dont want/need to get paid for doing something like this to help out, I mean its the least I can do....I hope they are treating him well too!! I am sure they are.....I will say my prayers for him as well what is his name if you dont mind me asking?

Wow...I sooo couldn't volunteer for something like that... I volunteered with the red cross a couple of summers ago, working at a vet clinic...I cried from that!! No way could I deal with sick people!

Aww that was so nice. I would be so heart broken to hear that though it would be hard not to cry.

That was really nice of you.

God bless
