to wake my children up, cry, smell their hair and be grateful?

[JjandtheBeanlovesUnicorns]

Im watching comic relief and it is breaking my heart, four babies need oxygen, only 3 can have it, one has to be sacrificed.
Ds needed oxygen at birth it just happened, like being given a plaster, we are so fucking lucky. the world is oh so wrong.

Edgars news and the comic relief films, and all the ongoing problems in Japan make me realise how precious life is.
It puts everything else into perspective doesn't it? :(

Monkey - me too. Cuddling my baby tighter for watching it :(
We're so lucky in this country.

I realised a while ago that I painted the hospital in Mbale that they were in; I saw the plaster being put on the walls, the plugs going into place....

I was umming and ahhing about whether I could donate or not - I donated after seeing that.

The whole thing is heart breaking.

i just read edgars thread and i doubt ive ever cried like that in my life i am sobbing and sobbing, her post was beautiful, and i didnt wake her but i had to pick dd up, she is the same age as her ds and i just realised how fragile she is
