Mementos

I entered this photo in a contest under the theme Mementos.  I entitled  it "El Rafa" which is inscribed on the necklace and is Hebrew for "God who Heals."  I bought this when I was pregnant and my purpose was two-fold.  1)  I was told by my medical Dr. I would never be able to have children.  2) At the time Maddie still had excess fluid on her brain and we were not sure how our story would end.  I believed God had already worked a miracle in the fact I was pregnant and I really believed He would heal my baby.  Little did I know at the time He was forming an extra chromosome in each and every one of her cells.

Now, her joy heals many hearts. 

This is a memento I will keep forever!
