Just had to share...Alyssa's report at school

Hi,

I just wanted to share something with everyone..

Alyssa's class (4th grade) is currently learning about medicine in our society. Alyssa came home lastnight and wanted to do a report on her BPI for extra credit. We went through all of our pictures from her surgeries and she picked out the ones she wanted to use. All on her own, she used poster board and crayons and put together a little sypnosis of her surgeries and included the pictures with captions on them! The most amazing part - which brought tears to my eyes, was at the end of her report she said "I don't care if kids tease me or treat me differently, I know that God gave me this gift and I accept it either way". Believe me, never in a million years (ok 9 years), would I have thought she would be handling this injury so well! I hope this give some hope to new parents here, and of course us old ones!!
