To show I understand what you're going through

poem by: Kathryn Eddy
Written on Aug 22, 2018

When I was young so long ago,
Threatened I was-though I didn't know,
My parents feared as to my fate
Afraid that the doctors would be too late

And the doctors did all that they could,
For the fear of my parents they understood,
They opened my skull and saw the mass
Knowing that they had to work fast.

Many at the time feared those efforts to be in vain,
As my life this tumor continued to drain,
But those doctor's efforts weren't destined to be lost,
For God had not let my death be the cost.

To show I understand what it is you're going through,
I have brought this message of encouragement for you,
As christmas is the time for giving as God's done,
And I do hope this will bring peace to everyone.

Wow taking the good with the bad. And showing gratitude for all that were helping u come through. I'm glad u made it through. The surgeries had to be scary. You are one strong person. Both physically and mentally. Thanks for sharing.
