Little baby girl is not doing well . She is in pain all the time and that is why they are keeping her sedated.
I should plan my birthday celebration - and I am not able to plan anything. How could I celebrate anything when this little baby is fighting for her life. I was feeling so down and depressed that I decided to run away cowardly for a couple of days to the mountains.

Life is precious. Enjoy the beauty every breathing second.
P.S. Thank you, my friends, for all your prayers, good wishes, and support. You don´t know how much you are helping.

It's not running away, it is taking a respite. Nothing cowardly about taking care of yourself when faced with a situation that is not in your hands to do anything about directly. It is the smart thing to do. These are very difficult things in life. danrav · 2011-08-13: 17:08

You did well to have some distance and to do something for yourself, communicating with nature. Everybody does its best to save the little princess, it's not in our hands...but still hoping! Unchained · 2011-08-13: 18:50

Sorry to hear that things are still difficult for her. Here's wishing that she may have a speedy recovery and that the rest of your family may cope as well as possible with the situation. Jarvo · 2011-08-13: 20:26

I've been thinking about you these last few day Marie, and hoping that things will turn around. I still feel strongly about a good outcome for Johana ... all the best to you, and don't feel cowardly, you are taking care of yourself so you can be strong for others. McMommy · 2011-08-14: 00:34

Sweet Marie, you know, sometimes it is a good thing to be away from everything for a while. It gives you time to find yourself, get new energy again, reload. We all are with you and your family in our thought. XOX Beautiful pictures!! Ryana · 2011-08-14: 07:04

My prayers and positive thoughts to you in this time. It is good to take care of yourself. If you do not you can not take care of another. A beautiful capture of a beautiful place for re-charging. May your heart be filled with joy. Blessed Be. karmankwarner · 2011-08-14: 08:38
