Sharing Jamie's World: a True Story Joe Thompson

A story of a little baby boy who grew up to be a man earlier than he should have had to. You see, he had cystic fibrosis, a gene disease, creating havoc in a family. Known as C F to many, it is like a cancer that will grow as you grow. Taking away part of ones life. A child in a window wanting to go out and play with friends. But not being able sometimes to get that breath of free air that God gave us. Our son, Jamie who in his short life taught us and others the value and gift of life that God gave us. What a friend is and who they are. Medical professionals who become part of your family, because they want to. You being taught about faith in God and yourself. Your son who thought of others more than himself. So brave and so respected. Being taught that we must believe in God and Jesus and have faith, faith that there is another place where there is no sickness or grief, only happiness and praying we all will arrive at this place, heaven. Setting a goal and having the courage to accomplish what you set out to do, and along the way enjoy life as God would want you to.
