I guess as a parent you imagine yourself wishing for just one more game of catch with your Dad but can't fathom that you might ever be in a position where you'd be wishing for just one more game of catch with your child....

Just thinking about it is suffocating....
My daughter is 11 also. She suffered a 2nd degree burn this past Saturday. Seeing the look on her face yesterday when I had to clean the burn just tore me apart. I never want to imagine the torment that girl or her parents went through.
