Jodie Means Grace of God: Day 23 to 35 Jodie is still not drinking..

My Face may be different, but my feelings the same
I laugh and I cry, and I take pride in my gains
I was sent here among you, to teach you to love
As God in the heavens, looks down from above
To Him I am no different, His love know no bounds
Its those here among you, in cities and towns
That judge me by standards that man has imparted
But this family I have chosen will help me get started
For I'm one of the children, so special and few
That came here to learn the same lessons as you
That love is acceptance it must come from the heart
We all have the same purpose, though not the same start
The Lord gave me life, to live and embrace
And I'll do it as you do but at my own pace

Day 23 to 35 Jodie is still not drinking..

No matter how hard we tried, Jodie refused to take the bottle. I bought every bottle on the market, but nothing worked. It was almost as if she was protecting herself by pulling her tongue back to her throat blocking her airway and then turning blue. My least favourite person in the world at that stage was Jodie's paed. How is it possible to keep on trying the same think over and over and expecting it to work. Why was he not trying something else? Luckily we had another paed standing in for him for a couple of day, maybe he would suggest something different.
