There are days my dalliance into social media causes heartburn. Other days it knocks me flat. Sunday was such a day, when I met ten year-old Lula in the waning moments of her life.

A friend had posted a prayer request for Lula and her family.

This was not my battle, nor my child. It was not a story in any way related to me.

I’m a mom, though, so her story yanked me in.
