The Hanna Family

Saturday, July 4, 2009

My Mother's test results came back and there is no sign of cancer at this time. What a sigh of relief. Her oncologist called her Thursday and let her know and then she passed the word along to us. My father and I still leave tomorrow to spend the week with my mother in Bountiful, UT. I am so excited to see family and friends. I have not seen my brother since the boys where in the NICU and it has been even longer since I have seen my nieces and sister-in-law. I also get to see my dear, sweet cousin Bonnie and my very close and dear friend Kim. I love both of these women and we have been in each others' lives for so many years and seen each other through so much.

We have our Harry Potter party this weekend so things will be pretty busy when we get back Friday night but I will try and post again as soon as I can.

God bless and thank you everyone for your prayers and concern on behalf of my mother.

What is Cerebral Palsy?

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a term used to describe a problem with movement and posture that makes certain activities difficult. Even though someone who has cerebral palsy has problems moving his or her muscles, this is not because there is something wrong with the muscles or nerves. These difficulties are caused because of problems in the brain. The child might have had an injury to the brain, or had a brain that did not develop properly. These problems can affect the way the brain controls movement and posture.

"But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven."

Matthew 9:14

At this time in my life illustrations of the Savior with children are so dear to my heart. When I've thought of Christ and Heavenly Father the past few months I have often thought of them cradling my sweet babies and whispering words of comfort. We will perhaps never understand why these valiant spirits where sent down to such fragile bodies at such a premature time but we do know that God has held them close in his loving embrace over these difficult months.

"God has not ceased to be a God of miracles.

Who shall say that it was not a miracle that by his word the heaven and the earth should be; and by the power of his word man was created of the dust of the earth; and by the power of his word have miracles been wrought?

And if there were miracles wrought then, why has God ceased to be a God of miracles and yet be an unchangeable Being? And behold, I say unto you he changeth not; if so he would cease to be God; and he ceaseth not to be God, and is a God of miracles."

Mormon 9, verses 15-19

"Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my Praise."
