As if willed to live by Diana’s determination, Danae clung to
life hour after hour.  But as those first rainy days passed, a new
agony set in for David and Diana.  Because Danae’s
underdeveloped nervous system was essentially “raw,” the
least kiss or caress only intensified her discomfort, so they
couldn’t even cradle their tiny baby.  All they could do, as
Danae struggled beneath the ultraviolet light, was to pray that God
would stay close to their precious little girl.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.beliefnet.com/nllp/ChickenSoupSoul.aspx?date=11-13-2007&WT.mc_id=NL49"><DIV>
Today, five years later, Danae is a petite but feisty young girl with
glittering gray eyes and an unquenchable zest for life.  She shows
no sign of any mental or physical impairment.  But that happy
ending is not the end of the story.</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.beliefnet.com/nllp/ChickenSoupSoul.aspx?date=11-13-2007&WT.mc_id=NL49"><DIV>
Caught in the moment, Danae shook her head, patted her thin shoulder
and loudly announced, “No, it smells like him.  It smells
like God when you lay your head on His chest.”</DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.beliefnet.com/nllp/ChickenSoupSoul.aspx?date=11-13-2007&WT.mc_id=NL49">Danae asked her mom,</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.beliefnet.com/nllp/ChickenSoupSoul.aspx?date=11-13-2007&WT.mc_id=NL49">“Do you smell that?”</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.beliefnet.com/nllp/ChickenSoupSoul.aspx?date=11-13-2007&WT.mc_id=NL49">it smells like rain.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/D7ED2086-9A7C-4790-88CB-AE9414A42ED1/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
