ON JANUARY 1 ,2011 I GOT THE WORST PHONE CALL EVER FROM MY DAUGHTERS GRANDMOTHER. SHE CALLED TO TELL ME THAT MY 11 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS NOT BREATHING. MICAHA SUFFERS FROM CHRONIC ASTHMA AND SICKLE CELL ANEMIA. MICAHA WAS ALWAYS A CHEERFUL AND DELIGHTFUL GIRL. MICAHA WAS A GREAT SISTER AND SHARING FRIEND. MICAHA CAN NO LONGER ENJOY THE THINGS SHE LOVED TO DO. DUE TO MICAHAS SEVERE ASTHMA ATTACK SHE CAN NO LONGER WALK OR TALK. SHE WAS IN A COMA FOR ABOUT TWO MONTHS. MICAHA HAS A TRACH IN HER THROAT TO HELP HER BREATHE. SHE ALSO HAS SUFFERED SEVERE BRAIN DAMAGE, ONLY ONE PART OF THE FOUR PARTS OF HER BRAIN WORKS.IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING SHE IS STILL HERE. I THANK GOD FOR HIS MANY BLESSINGS. ONE THING THAT I REMEMBER THE NURSE SAYING TO ME WAS " MOMMY SHE IS A MIRACLE" AND THAT STUCK WITH ME THROUGH OUT THIS SITUATION..... GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND HAVE A BLESSED DAY !!!
