My Friend's Daughter
Yesterday a friend’s baby turned one year old. I went to visit them today with some presents. As I looked at Cecilia my heart swelled, such a beautiful little girl! She was smiling cheekily and doing all kinds of things that one year olds do – pulling to stand, attempting to stand on her own, sticking everything into her mouth. I just wanted to scoop her up into my arms and give her a big cuddle.
But I couldn’t. I was looking at Cecilia through the window of her room at the oncology ward of Krakow’s children’s hospital. She recently completed her third round of chemotherapy in preparation for a bone marrow transplant. Tragically, Cecilia is suffering from infant leukemia and has been living at the hospital for the last four months.
“It’s not fair, is it?” Cecilia’s mum asked me. All I could do was nod in agreement. It is not fair. It is wrong. Downright wrong, that this is happening to Cecilia and her family. To anyone in fact. But it is happening. It wasn’t easy for me to go to the hospital – it is not easy to go to a big hospital and know that it is full of sick children. To see those children, some bald, some on crutches, some in wheelchairs. But I wanted Cecilia and her mum to know that I care. Because when your child is sick, when your life is turned upside down, many people don’t know what to do, what to say, whether to do or say anything at all.
And then there’s the fear because hey, if it’s happening to them, it could happen to me too. It’s hard not to think that. It’s hard not to get scared. But it is a crime to turn away from those in need. It doesn’t take much – just a little kind heartedness.
As I was leaving the hospital, I wished I could give my friend a hug. But I have had a cold recently, and I didn’t want to risk any of my germs getting through to Cecilia.
I don’t know if anyone reads this blog anymore, I know for sure that I have been very slack at updating it. But if you are reading, and you are touched by Cecilia’s story, here is a healing prayer that was written especially for her, I would appreciate it if you could read it, even once.
Dear God and Angels,
I ask Father, Mother God, Holy Spirit, the Ascended Masters, the Archangels, and all angels to hear my prayer for baby Cecilia Marina.
I call you for Cecilia Marina who is a young baby girl, suffering from a leukemia illness in Krakow children’s hospital of Prokocim.
Please go to her now with Your loving blessings.
I ask Archangel Michael of the Light to use his mighty sword of Light, to cut through all seemingly impossible obstacles with Cecilia's medical treatment. Help Cecilia's chemo therapy work effectively.
Please assist all the medical team who are treating Cecilia.
Archangel Michael send courage and strength to baby Cecilia and her parents. Help them to have faith they are being helped by God's grace.
I ask Archangel Raphael of the Light to surround Cecilia with emerald healing light. Help Cecilia's parents to visualize your healing light continuously shining on Cecilia and all her medical helpers.
In gratitude and thankfulness, I thank you God, and thank you Angels for your continuous love and support to help heal baby Cecilia Marina.
in love and light...Amen
