Today I can say is one the best in my life. For those who don't know this summer Haley was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata Universalise, this means that she has lost all of her body hair, and it wont grow back. It took a couple of months for us to get use to this and for her to get use to knowing that she was never going to have hair. Right about the time that we all felt like we were back to the norm, she started to get some splotches down her spin and around the trunk of her body. We took her to the Pediatrician who didn't know what it was and recommended that we take her back to her Dermatologist, which we were happy to do. I have to say I love Dr. Bezzant. I have never had a Doctor be so blunt or I guess you could say honest. Being nerves about what we might hear I asked my mom to go with us, Haley also wanted Nana to go. I am glad she went. We were told that it was either Eczema or a form of Cancer. I looked at him with bugged eyes, and asked him if he just said Cancer. 
He looked at me straight faced and said yes I did. As I was trying not to cry and looking at my mom for help, she stepped in and started to ask questions. All I could think about was what else could my little girl have to go through. By the time I could hear what was being said, he was telling my mom that it was a Cancer that has no cure, but one that no one had every died from. I don't know that, that made it any better, but I guess it helped a little. I finally got that we were talking about a form of skin cancer that has to do with your white blood cells. I am still kind of in a fog about it all. After nights of not sleeping, and finally realizing that what ever happened, she was our little surprise baby, and I was going to enjoy every day that we had with her. So today we went back for her check up and found that the medication that Dr. Bezzant had given us had help clear up her skin and the it was NOT CANCER!!!!!!!!!!!! She will spend the rest of her live having to use a wonderful cream to help with her very strange form of eczema. I know get to enjoy everyday of our lives together, and will be reminded everyday what a special child we were blessed to have. Haley has truly turned out to be an angle child for us. I don't know yet how or why she was ch
osen to come to us, but she did 4 weeks early. This little girl that started life out at 3.5 lbs. is now my little miracle child. I may not show her every day how much she means to me, but I know in my heart.

Wow. She sounds like a very special spirit. How blessed you guys are! I'm sorry you had to go through that kind of stress, though. Horrible. I may complain about Claire's situation a lot but I've always been grateful that she is physically healthy.
