Christmas should be spent at HOME

Karlie GillIt's Christmas Eve and I have enjoyed spending much of my day in the kitchen.  After I thought I was coming under attack by a sore throat and a fever and took a quick power nap, I forced myself into the kitchen and medicated myself with butter, spices and carbs galore.  For a minute there I was having a little pity party for myself.  As I sat and pondered what pithy facebook post I could make about being sick on Christmas Eve, my thoughts turned quickly to a precious 3 year old I have never met who is spending Christmas in Children's Hospital in Birmingham, AL. 

We are a strong network of professionals who bring people HOME.  I ask each of you to stop for a minute or two today and do whatever it is you feel compelled to do - pray, send healing vibes or a pounds of positive thoughts - to a little girl named Karlie Gill.  I have never met this sweet girl but have had the opportunity to meet her dad once or twice.  Karlie contracted e-coli and a parasite and has been in Children's Hospital since October.  I have been following her progress and it is a constant "two steps forward - three steps back" roller coaster.

Christmas should be spent at HOME...not in a hospital.  Especially not for a little girl with dreams of sleeping by the Christmas tree in hopes of catching a glimpse of Santa.  Please stop for a moment and say whatever type of prayer or thought you are compelled to send.  Hug your family and be grateful that you CAN spend Christmas in your HOME.  And if you are so inclined, click here and follow her progress.  Together let's bring Karlie HOME where she belongs!
