As my brothers death anniversary is slowly approaching this Sunday, my mother has been sending me these emails about dealing with death. I really liked this one and wanted to share it with you all...
~DEATH~
WHAT A WONDERFUL WAY TO EXPLAIN IT..
A sick man turned to his doctor as he was preparing to
Leave the examination room and said,
\'Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what lies on the other side..\'
Very quietly, the doctor said, \'I don\'t know.\'
You don\'t know? Your, a Christian man, and don\'t know what\'s on the other side?\'
The doctor was holding the handle of the door;
On the other side came a sound of scratching and whining,
And as he opened the door, a dog sprang into the room And leaped on him with an eager show of gladness.
Turning to the patient, the doctor said,
\'Did you notice my dog?
He\'s never been in this room before..
He didn\'t know what was inside.
He knew nothing except that his master was here,
And when the door opened, he sprang in without fear.
I know little of what is on the other side of death,
But I do know one thing...
I know my Master is there and that is enough.\'

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
