Upon the loss of my third pregnancy I thought life couldn't get any worse. I was wrong. Upon arriving to Johns Hopkins for a "simple procedure", I was told there was internal bleeding and concern for ovarian cancer. Even worse I was told to go home and come back the next day for exploratory surgery. My life went from grieving for a child to be to fearing not being there for the children I had. Through all that I new God was there.
God was in the dear Calvary friend who shared her story of loss, and that I went through this loss to gain the child who was meant to be the completion of our family. (What would we all do without Sebastian in our lives?). God was in in the one doctor who I trusted most, out of so many doctors, walking through that door. God was in my amazing mother who went through this with me every step of the way. When I awoke, her voice was telling me I was ok, there was no cancer, and i could still have children. She cared for me in days afterward and helped me care for my family. God was in my husband and in laws who made sure Owen and Sylvie didn't miss a beat in their schedule, so they could feel safe and sound.
My whole world came together to lift me up through something I never would have survived alone. I am never alone.
Prayer: thank you Lord for being with me every step of the way. For lifting me up when I could not go on. For Never leaving me alone. Amen
Prayer concern: persons in times of hardship.
