My first born daughter, Cheryl, had problems with her ears and throat before she reached the first year of her young life. Tonsillitis caused her ears to be infected and along with that came a lot of pain for such a young child. When this would happen there were sleepless nights in our home.

The doctor said they could not remove the tonsils until she became two years old. If my memory serves me right, it was that they would grow back in again if removed at such an early age.

When she turned two, bingo, right to the doctor we went to have this problem taken care of. Her health improved so much once the tonsils and adenoids were taken out. When tonsils come out, according to the doctor, they automatically remove the adenoids.

All her growing up years I remember one time the doctor came to our home as she had a bleeding nose that would not stop. Dr. Galen cauterized a weak blood vessel; the nose bleeds stopped.

I believe that God’s Hand was on Cheryl especially this one day when she was pitching on a softball teenage league for girls. This is proven in Isaiah 44:3 For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thy offspring. The girl Cheryl pitched to hit the ball so hard; it came directly at her face. Her reflexes were so quick; her catcher’s mitt went directly up to her face and caught the ball. If that ball had not been caught, I might not have my daughter today. The girl she pitched to was a powerful and excellent hitter and went on into the senior softball league for young women.

Not to brag much but our team the “Red Barons” were the Junior Division champions in 1972. There were three woman coaches Nancy Wandoshion, Eleanor DiMauro and myself. Proverbs 18:10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.
