Shout Out to: The McBurney Family

[sk8shopbeth]

Hey guys, this shout out goes to the McBurney family because I just found out from my friend Jonathan that Justin McBurney died on Saturday morning. I've been going to Muscular Dystrophy camp with Justin for the past 7 years and he was always such an amazing person. The family, as well as Justin, need as many prayers as they can get right now, so

Thanks to everyone for your concern. I'm going to send his family a card this weekend sometime and let them know that we're all praying for them. I'm dealing better now, because Lake (my boyfriend) kind of made me realize last night that it's good, because now, justin's getting to walk for the first time.

Okay Beth..my turn to help you out

I totally know what you are going through. Ya see, my mom and I have a softball league for handicap children that takes place during the summer. Every summer, I dedicated 2 hours on Saturday to go help these kids play softball. They have buddies that help push them around the bases, catch balls, and even help them bat if they need help. Well, I have been doing this for 9 years. And I only see these kids in the summer. (Even though some live in Pleasant Grove) Well about two weeks ago, a little girl (who I use to be a buddy to) died. And I feel like I didn't get to spend enough time with her. But the thing is, is that nature is going to take it's course and you can't stop it. You just have to be ready for it when it gets to you. I am sure that little boy knows you loved him and he is looking down on you from heaven right now. You may feel guilty, but with time, everything will be okay. If you need to talk to me, you know how to reach me. ILU

yeah...you can relate so you really understand...its so hard sometimes, especially with MD because i go back every year and watch these kids get worse and worse...like, my best little bud hunter, he used to live in my neighborhood wen we were younger, and i could remember when he could run...and could flush cats down the toilets...then slowly, as the years went by, he couldnt run...then he had trouble walking, and now hes in a wheel chair. He has Duchenes MD, and hes not expected to live past age 23...but it really is hard watching these ppl i care so much about slowly lose everything. and whats even harder is knowing going into a relationship with these people knowing that they will die. That's what took me the longest was learning to attach myself, irregardless. they need friends too, and i'm there as a fellow camper, but it takes special ppl to voulenteer their time with kids like that...i dont know if i could...you're awesome!
