This post is dedicated to all those that have given anything to help someone else's life become just a little better. We find ourselves so wrapped up in our own problems that sometimes we just don't stop to see the good that is in this world.
A dear friend donated a piece of her liver today to her year old niece Madison. Madison would have not survived if she had not had this surgery and I want you, and anyone you know to just stop and think for a moment, would you do the same, even if it were for a friend and not a relative.
It's seems almost a lifetime ago that Michelle Mari began her journey to help save the life her niece Madison. At the same same time it feels the same for Jim and Shannon and their journey to save their daughters life.
It began with testing; lots of testing. Worrying; lots of tears. Anger; why is this happening to such a young soul? Relief; when the Mari Family realized that Michelle would be able to donate a piece of her to save Madison. All of these emotions must have been debilitating at times.
The Mari family put their lives on hold for months upon months in order to prepare for today; a day that will forever change all of their lives. Today, two generations lay in one building connecting in a way that some may never understand.
A foundation was started to help the Mari family pay for the numerous amounts of testing Nd procedures that were ahead of them. With the help of friends and family, Moving Mountains for Madison has helped raise over $10,000.00. The Mari family will continue to keep movie those mountains until their daughter is brought back to health.
We post about our headaches and stomachaches; we post about how bad of a day we've had and how life just isn't fair. Yet, sometimes we post about saving lives and families pulling together to help one another. We post about, how when push comes to shove, our minuet problems, though they may seem detrimental at the time, seem silly and unimportant after realizing how life can be taken away, as well as given.
Michelle has put aside all life's little pleasures in order to give the biggest pleasure to her family, a hopeful new beginning to her niece.
Think about this before you post about life and realize, though it may not be easy, or fair for that matter, we must stay true to our families, friends, and our own beliefs to make our world and others, better.
I'd like to just say how proud I am of you and wish you and the rest of the family all the best with their newly given future!
I love you Michelle... MOOO
