October 16 A lovely poem-- The strength of a premature mother's loveI 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
