It is Worth the Fight





Is one person worth thousands of dollars and hundreds of dollars. Many families make the choice to let their child die if the funeral bill is cheaper than the medical bill then they let them die. Now understand that they are very sad and morn and miss them, but that is how many make their decisions.  
This little girl. Reza, was living with us because her mother was somewhere else working so she has become like a daughter to us. When she got sick it was up to us, and mama came to be by her side. It was a battle that took many people to help, to pay the bills, to pray, and so many people to help see her though 24 days of being sick. Patti spent much time with her and her mama, helping make medical decisions, and advocating for better medical care.  It saved her life. She would have died if it was not for the help of hundreds of prayers, money, love, wisdom and God's grace.
It cost us more than we had but we paid it anyway, paying for a coffin as a choice is not an option to us. Glory to God money was sent to help us, but what mattered is that we fight for those that can't, and we make a stand no matter how uncomfortable it is. I am happy to say she is running around the house and almost 100 percent again. And she is totally worth it.
