Sometimes, our problems seem too great. But there are people living a happy life with even bigger problems.
I was watching 'Extreme Makeover-Home Edition' recently, and it featured a family who lived in almost a cold storage. Why?
Because the daughter of the family had a rare condition in which she can't feel any pain. Even worse, she can't cool herself down, i.e. once her body temperature rises, it won't fall, and it can Kill her!!!
So she lives wearing a pack containing ice packs, it is like a jacket. Why do they have to be like that? Can everyone be happy and healthy?

Well for me, I believe that God has a purpose for everything... The girl maybe experiencing that, not because she is being punished but may be God id trying to teach the family something or may be the people around them. There is always a bigger purpose for everything we just have to ask God to direct us and guide us...

Try calling him, and give him my number if you get the line!!!
I do not believe in god, and I think everyone should have an equal and well deserved opportunity to life.
Some people are born poor, some are born with ill health, and what not.
While others have everything that one could ever wish for.
Why?

Woah, that's some kinda rare disease. I feel sad to that family. Since they're featured in extreme makeover- i think that they would do something great for that family. It's hard to live in that kind of house with some rare disease.

Wow, what a sad thing to for someone to spend their life dealing with. I have not heard of such a thing. But I guess since there are so many conditions out there that no one has heard for until they get it. Or someone that they care about or is a member of their family.

Hi there boyuancy..
It's really unfortunate for her to be in that condition.But I think no matter hard it is people must always try to think positively to every life's challenges.Nothing will happen in thinking of negative thoughts or always complaining. We must appreciate life in whatever means coz that will show us the real happiness.
