    Hi, I’m Krista.

    Strategic communicator and storyteller.

    I am the wife of a very talented musician who takes me around the world in pursuit of excellence. Mama to Jakob, Audrey and Ella, who just happens to have Down Syndrome.
    And an aspiring disciple of Jesus, defender of the oppressed, writer, graphic designer and photographer.

    I write and speak on navigating through the fog of life…you know, when things don’t go exactly as planned and am fuelled by a passion to amplify the voices of those on the margins…
    oh, and coffee…lots of coffee.

Millie

December 7, 2010

I know there have been a lot of DS posts lately, but its just where my heart is at.

(Picture has been removed) This is Millie. She is two and is VERY VERY sick. She has a virus and is sedated. If she doesn’t show improvement by tomorrow morning, UK time she will go to be with Jesus. This breaks my heart, like really breaks my heart. I felt the same way when a little girl in town died at only 18 months because she needed a new liver and couldn’t get one.
And I wonder why I cry. Do I cry because these children are too young to die? Or do I cry because I put Ella’s eyes on this face and selfishly think about the loss of my own Angel. Either way it is one thing I have never figured out how to process.

Please pray for Millie, she needs a miracle.
