Sorry to hear that, Brandi.

If your niece ends up with some chronic condition, there's not going to be any normal again. I understand your sister's desire for that for her other daughter, but the reality is that Noele's sister is sick with some unknown thing. If your sister can't be there for Noele, it would be best if someone else who cares about her can be. What a wonderful thing for your brother to offer.
