Unexpected Miracle: a Moment of Awe!/1’st in a Series
The date was July 19, 2001. The time was 11:31 am. I gave birth to my fifth wonder of the world. Her name was Micheala; a beautiful name for a beautiful being. She was small at 18 inches long and 6lbs. 5oz. But, there was something different about this precious gift. My baby girl had been born with Down Syndrome. My first reaction was to cry. Why? I have thought about that one a lot over these past 7 years. My first thought was, ‘my poor baby’. But then, as I stopped and really examined myself, I began to think, ‘poor me’. this would be a normal life for her, but not so normal for me’. I would need some help with this one’, I thought. ‘How am I going to get through this one’? My answer on that one was with a lot of prayer and determination. I had never been one to give up on something just because it was new to me, and I wasn’t about to start now. After all, this little girl was a gift from God, and you never say no to those.
During the next two weeks, we would take Micheala back to the doctor for her 2 week check-up. She was still having a problem hearing out of her left ear and she had a heart murmur. My mind went to sppinning as I took in all that the doctor had to say. She would need a hearing test done, again, even though she had them in the hospital, as routine tests. He was also going to send her to a heart specialist for an EKG and an Ultrasound, to see just what the problem was. Those tests were the moment of truth for us. Micheala would need hert surgery to fix her problem. In Dr.’s terms, there was a hole in her heart, valves had not been formed, making the high pressure side work too hard. Appointments were made and that is when it really started. She would be fine, but surgery needed to be done before 8 months of age or else the lungs would be in danger. What? My heart was breaking for my little bundle. I knew then it was time to dig in and get ready, we were in for the long haul.
Even though we would be bak and forth to the hospital for appointments, our first miracle would happen at her hearing test. The technician set her up for the test and got it started. She turned on the machine and in a few moments it was over, she had failed once again. Since the machine was set up for automatic re-start, the test began again. During the second run, the technician wa already handing me an appointment card for a hearing aid. ‘She must be kidding me,’ I thought. I said to myself, “NO WAY!”, and began to pray. In seconds the test was over and my baby had passed. She was not deaf. Praise God, thank you Jesus, was all I could say. A miracle had just happenend and I could not have been more happy than at that moment.
