You've been taking care of it for all these years. You'll get over it quickly. But you'll never be the same. Just ask any mother. Just ask any marrow donor.
Mothers give life.
Marrow donors give time. Both by the Grace of God. What God has brought together, let no man put asunder. If my life were all pleasure and I never knew pain, I'd seek God less often and need him much less, For God's sought more often in times of distress.
