I wrote this poem on July 14, 2005 while my wife was in the hospital pregnant with our first child. She was trying to pass a kidney stone and go into premature labor at the same time. While the doctor's worked on fixing these problems, she also developed sepsis/septocemia also known as blood poisoning.

Sometimes we need to be able to reflect on the difficult times in our life to be able to know just how far we have come. My brother was such a bundle of emotions, but remained strong in his faith for his family. I am truly proud to be his big sis.

***There is one error found in the poem. Thanks to Denise,LSHS for letting me know and helping to point it out. The thrid to last line should read "They all hang in the balance, it's all on the line." The letter 'n' was mistakenly left out. Sometimes it's hard to see errors in your own writing. Thank you.*****

Thank you all for the wonderful comments! My wife was the real person of strength through this rough time. It was her body, that was put to the test, both physically and spiritually. She is my true soulmate and I thank God for her by my side.

Honestly put and said, exactly. We do Thank God every day for the both being well and healthy now. Prayers were answered and my son was so strong during all of this that this prayer shows all his fears as well as his trust and faith in God. He has a wonderful wife and a very beautiful baby girl. Wonderful page!!
