Pray for Ella Barna

So I just got done watching Kandee Johnson's video that she did when she went to visit Ella Barna. Ella is a 12 year old girl who has been fighting cancer since she was 8 months old. Watching the video had me in tears because at one point she began to cry. This little girl has been through so much in her life. I checked out her social media accounts and I can say that I have never been so humbled by one person. When something bad happens to me I sometimes think I'm never going to get past it. I will never think that again. After hearing Ella's story and everything she has been through and still going through makes me realize that my life really isn't that bad and that their are people out there who are having such a worse time then I am and they are keeping a smile on their faces and moving forward each and every day because that is what they have to do to survive. Sitting here just thinking about her story makes me so sad and angry at god for making someone this precious and this young go through something so terrible. I know people are going to say that god hands things like this to people because he made them strong enough to handle it, but she is just a little girl with her whole life in front of her. As I'm typing this baby Jaxon is sleeping in front of me and even though he is not my son(he is my boyfriend's sister's son) I still could not imagine someone not much bigger than him having to go through something so tragic and scary. Just looking at him makes me want to just hold him and cry. Yes I understand that there is nothing wrong with him and his is fine and healthy, but Ella and many more children out there are not. Hugging Jaxon is my way of hugging each and every one of them. They are all a child of god. No I am not a religious person but there is really nothing else to add this up too. I will be waiting to hear more about Ella's story and I hope she keeps fighting with every ounce of heart and soul she has left.
