I would like to thank all of the people involved with Carnival for Caleb and am amazed at how well it went. I tried to capture somewhat of what I was feeling when I spoke that day but it really is such an amazing blessing. About a year ago I went through a period of what is referred to as "survivor's guilt." I had feelings like, "Why did I make it when so many others didn't?" I was struggling in my journey with the Lord at that point and have made great strides since then.
Really, when I experience things like the outpouring of love and support at the carnival, those feelings seem completely illogical. The reason I made it is because God has a very important purpose for me and I am forever grateful to all who helped and donated to me.
Praise the Lord for you all!
