Helpless

There is nothing in life that makes me feel more helpless then when my kids are sick. Trenton picked up a nasty sickness over the weekend, and today hit rock-bottom. Danielle finally took him to the doctor where the sickness is so bad that he is having asthma-like breathing difficulties. His poor little body is burning up, he has a terrible cough, and he has to wheeze in order to breathe. It is the saddest thing I have ever encountered (mainly because he is my child). Anyways, it has me feeling completely helpless. I hate not being able to just take away the pain and suffering with just the touch of my finger. I would do just about anything to get that poor kid feeling better - including taking his sickness into my lungs. Unfortunately I am unable to do so, and so I sit helpless and a little scared, praying that God will heal my little man. This is the worst.
