    A lovely poem-- The strength of a premature mother's love

     
    I read this poem on a blog where all premature babys' mother get together
    to share their experience. It is a very useful website. I got a lot of information and support over there.
    I can not help tearing when I read this poem. It is exactly my thought.
     
    The strength of a preemature mother's love
    Twenty-six weeks, too early to be born
    This is only the beginning of a long rough storm
    Such a tiny baby, almost not even alive
    I look at my mother and wonder how she'll survive
     
    It'll be weeks, maybe even months of waiting
    Right now my mothers hope is quickly fading
    I see the pain in her eyes as she stares through my plastic walls
    She wonders if I'll even survive this at all
     
    How badly I want to tell her she's not to blame for my early birth
    That it was God that sent me to this earth
    He knew my mother's strength, the strong will she had
    To teach her to look to him, when things get really bad
     
    Right now I have tubes and wires every which way
    My mother at my side, everyday she prays
    The miracle of a child goes sorely misunderstood
    My mother would help me, if only she could
     
    No reason at all the doctors to give
    All they care now is how long I have to live
    They say its a long hard road with lots of bumps along the way
    And to take things as they come day to day
     
    It's been three weeks since I first saw my mother's face
    She wonders if we'll ever leave this place.
    Blood tranfusions, infections, surgeries-
    Not a day goes by without the worries
     
    Wishing, hoping, pausing to pray
    My mother wonders, "Will my baby make it through the day."
     
    It's now been two months since my tragic birth
    I'm not a pound anymore, I'm starting to get some girth
    All I have left is to learn to eat
    Even that is such a huge feat
     
    Finally the day comes, I get to go home!
    In my mother's arms, I'm no longer alone
    As we enter the front door, my mother drops to her knees
    She thanks the Lord for hearing her pleas
     
    The strength of a mother is something I can't explain
    But through her love, my life was sustained
    Mother and daughter finally where they should be
    Two miracles together for everyone to see
     
    The miracle of my life is not something to take of light
    Both my mother and I, put up a hard fight
    We both thank the lord above everyday that goes by
    Because he was there always by our side
