WHY?
Posted by Auntie Heather (Heather Methven) on Dec 08, 2011
Why does DIPG exist?
Why does it take so many innocent children?
Why is there no cure?
Why is there no hope?
Why is the only option death?
Why is this happening to sweet, innocent Stella?
Why is it slowly taking away her abilities?
Why is she no longer able to walk?
Why is she no longer able to talk?
Why is she losing her ability to see?
Why is this happening to our family?
Why is she going to be taken away from us?
Why will we have to live without her?
Why am I still in denial?
Why is life so unfair?
Why isn’t God answering my prayers?
WHY?

There is no good answer to really explain why this is happening to Stella and so many other children. Sometimes life really isn't fair. I hope that one day there is a better outlook for children with DIPG. I can only imagine the pain that you and your family are in. I wish this website didn't exist because it would mean that Stella wasn't sick. What has amazed me is the beauty and love that has emerged from Stella and surrounded all of you and anyone fortunate to know her in some small way. "I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness because it shows me the stars". Sending love to your little Star, her wonderful Auntie and all of your family.

The answers are not on this earth. And when we finally know "why" it won't matter anymore. Because we'll be together again - and we'll understand.

Hi Heather, from reading this blog it's so obvious that you are not only an incredible sister, but you're also an incredible aunt. I have such an undying love for my three nieces, and it absolutely breaks my heart to think of how you are feeling watching Stella's senses and abilities deteriorate. Just keep doing what you're doing, love her and support her as she goes through each transition. I wish that you had answers for your why's. I also wish that there was something that I could do to change this fate for your family.
Wishing you, your family and little Stella a happy holiday season. God bless you!
