One Day at a Time

On September 13, 2012 at 10:18pm I endured the worse loss ever when God decided that my darling daughter Makenna would sit upon the thrown with him. Makenna Caroline Clark departed her earthly home after a 4 year and 5 month battle with a rare syndrome called Macrocephaly Capillary Malformation and Hydrocephalus. Makenna endured a total of 26 surgeries that resulted in us gaining 3 additional years to her short life. Makenna was never expected to live to see her first birthday. She proved many surgeons wrong through her fight she showed the world what a true spirit of faith and belief can really have on you. Makenna Caroline took each day with a smile and a giggle. She had a following that showed an outpouring of love on September 18, 2012 when she was laid to rest at Sunset Hill Cemetary in Rockport, IN. Makenna had in attendance over 150 people at her home going partying and sharing stories about her life. She will be forever missed and a space within our grieving hearts will remain due to her absence here on earth. Makenna taught us all to fight each day with the notion that it could be your last. Never go a day without telling those you love how you feel. For I have learned from being Makenna's mom that true and unconditional love is something to never take for granted. Makenna has a story to tell and I will share this journey of her life and my life with her on this blog. "Where you invest your love, you invest your life"---Awake My Soul
