Laughter


I have news that I've sat on for about three days. The past three days have been the best few days Allie has had in at least six months. In my last post, I told you that Allie started a new prescription to manage gastrointestinal pain but it had not started working. I have to be honest, as much as I wanted it to work, I had doubts. So many treatments she's been through this past year have delivered no results. But the past few mornings have been pain free and happy for Allie. When Allie's happy, the whole house is happy.

It's actually been a little comical to watch Allie. She'll pause while playing or sitting on the Charming and Beautiful Susan's lap with a look of panic on her face when she feels something in her tummy move. She waits. Then nothing. And she laughs. It's pretty funny. She loves to laugh and it's nice to see her body cooperate with her.

The laughter has been the best medicine. Thank you for your prayers.
