Mother Of An Ailing Daughter.
Submitted by: Pri
IndiaI've always been a believer in The Secret and have been a part of this community for 9 years. I trust that whatever happens, happens for the best, and I try to focus on the greener side of life.
I am grateful to be back on this page after a long time. I am thankful to Rhonda Byrne and The Secret team for the great and magical work they do for us all.
A year and a half ago, my daughter, who is now more than 2 years old, was diagnosed with a terminal genetic disorder. This horrible disease is taking away every little thing from my daughter. She was a happy baby until 7 months ago when she started losing her abilities. She now is bedridden and has a tube in her stomach through which she is fed. I cannot describe the pain I feel in words. I was devastated initially. I still feel the agony of it all. However, after a few months of anxiety and depression after getting this diagnosis, I decided to make her remaining life, and mine as well, a better and a happy one.
The first thing I did was to rewatch The Secret movie and then read all the books. This was such a big step for me. I was slowly getting better at handling my emotions and had a better perspective. I continued the practice, and now looking back, I realize that it really was such a major step for us. I am now more focused on the present and I try to make as many good memories with her as possible. I am thankful for the present I have with her and for all the love I can feel and shower over her. Life has taught me the joy of being a mother, the art of compassion, and the unlimited love I can feel deep inside of me. Love that I never thought I was capable of.
And despite all that is going on in our lives, I always have so many things to be grateful for. I have the best spouse, amazing and supportive in-laws, beautiful family and friends, and the best hospitals and doctors at our service. The Universe has got me covered from all sides. I know it is all for some greater good.
Thank you, Universe. Thank you, God.
