Understandidng attitude


Hello friends,
Today Sammy had very good day! He brought back small souvenirs from Disney for his classmates. With a great support from our wonderful school staff ,Sammy had great first day back. It has been great experience with NSSED class and highly trained teachers and specialists that had to adjust quickly to Sammy's vision loss in the past few weeks. Thank you for making a difference!
On vacation ,we had some free time and one though have not left me.Thoughts about attitude in life .Where does it come from? What makes the most impact the way we live our life's?
More I was thinking about it ,the more I realize that it comes from childhood.Our kids are very fortunate to live in United States.They are spoiled and we love spoiling them.
When ever I go back to my childhood -I realize that I had to work my tail off for everything.
Being a single mom -my mother was always working. All English I ever learned ,was listening to my mom tutoring in the other room.New clothing I only got when my old one is truly fallen apart,so at about 11 y.o I started to learned how to saw and later how to knit -this way I only needed money for fabric and knitting supply.After school if I was hungry -I started to cook little by little.By age 13 I could make many dishes from scratch,but was afraid of touching meat until about 16.Looking back I realized that if I had it all -I would not be able to survive though immigration and trough out my life . There was a great reason -why G-D is leading us though certain passes in life.That is why I feel that we can't question G-Ds way there is greater reason behind it.Maybe he is protecting us from something we would not able to handle in the future by making things happen this way now.I don't know if I'm making much sense ?!We are able to control the way we handle stress in life and our attitude is our guide . Instead of consentrating on negative and feeling sorry -Can you find positive in it?
Great attitude comes from great example and example come from environment you come from.
In my life I have to constantly tune my self to positive note,constantly reminding my self that life is beautiful and nothing can change that.I like to refer to the latest development with Sammy loosing his vision as a positive sign -we must keeping that door of opportunities open to welcome good news soon.
Any thoughts? What is your attitude in life?
XOXO Sammy and Mom.

Dear Sammy and mom,

I am Kayal, mother of Aditya, who also has ald and has undergone bone marrow
transplantation in May 2008. I read your blogposts.

We live in New Zealand and the transplantation was done there. Now we are in
India, to receive "embryonic stem cells" which can reverse ald and help remyelination.
Aditya is receiving the stem cells and we are awaiting to see the miracle.
I wanted to convey this to you so that you can also treat Sammy here!

I am giving the website of a patient who received stem cells from the same doctor.
