If I was able to conduct research that would benefit children and their families I would focus on poverty and health issues. I would love to end poverty by providing education and needed job training to increase the financial stability in the children homes. I know that money does not buy happiness but I know that having a stable income will provide the necessities that families need to survive.
I would also like to find a cure for childhood cancer. At this moment I have a coworker whose daughter have cancer. The little girl is only three years old and has been through different types of chemotherapy and treatments for the last year or more. I have seen the family put on a brave smile to be strong for their daughter knowing that the chances of her being cured is slim to none. If I was able I would conduct a research project that would provide a cure for their little girl and other children that are also suffering from this illness.
Tarshia, I believe that love is a great way to approach people in pain and faith is the tool to give birth miracles. You may not be able to conduct a research project that may provide a cure for this girl at this time, but may support her with these two gifts that I am pretty sure will be of great help.
ReplyDeleteTarshia,
ReplyDeleteThe idea of finding a cure for cancer as you mentioned makes me think of a movie on this time of year called 'November Christmas.' It is about a little girl diagnosed with cancer and the struggles her, her family, and the entire town go through as a result. Makes me cry every time and I cannot fathom. To find a cure for all illnesses like cancer to end hurt and pain for children and their families would be fantastic.
