Watching a miracle..

When I was pregnant with William people would always say things like maybe a miracle will happen and William will be born whole.

Every time they would say that I would sadly smile and say if thats to be. Knowing full well it wasent the miracle they thought.

This is something I haven't shared befor.

August 25th 2005 after finding out William was sick.

Late in the night I got down on my knees and asked that William would be healed.

I got my answer quickly.

I was told by Heavenly father that he would heal the fetus inside my womb if that is what I wanted.

But and this was a big but if that was the path I chose it would be a different spirit.

I new immediately what my answer would be I would carry William to term.

I had already fallen madly in love with him.

I new he was to be my child and that he was supose to be born into our family.

I new how difficult this journey would be.

I also new it was a journey I would not have to take alone.

I new my family, friends and my Heavenly father would walk this journey with me.

I also new I could ask my heavenly Father for help and specific this I needed to help make this journey easier for me and my family.

So I did I asked for time.

I asked that we would have William for 2 weeks.

I was very careful what I asked for and very specific.

I asked that I would be able to take him home and that he would never suffer while he was here n earth.

The day he was born was amazeing and hard I witnessed many miracles that day.

The first happened right after he was born.

Nurse Molly handed him to me and as I was holding him admiring his beauty and watching his heart beat inside his chest, his heart suddenly stopped and the Doctor declared that he was dead.

I sat there in utter amazement as every one around us was crying and in shock.

I thought no Heavenly father you promised me 2 weeks.

With all the Faith I could muster I picked up William and gently rocked him and in a firm mothers voice I said Now William you need to breath for mommy.

In that instance he opened his eyes and took the sweetest breath.

I new I had just witnessed a miracle.

Later on that day we had another scare he had a major seizure and quit breathing.

I had never seen a human bean that shad of purple in my life.

The Dr. handed William over to me so h could die in my arms and I wished to him to stay a little longer so that his brothers and sisters could be with him.

I new if his whole family was in the room that he would fight for us.

We called my in laws and told them to bring the children as soon as they could.

As we waited for them to come Our friend came in and gave him a name and a blessing.

It was just to hard for Dale to do.

The Dr.s kept listing to his heart amazed that it was still beating because William was still not breathing.

Our kids then entered the room and I had each on of them hold William.

As each child held him we witnessed another miracle William started breathing.

His breaths got stronger as each child gently rocked him and kissed him and told him how much he was loved.

After everyone went home about 11:30pm The DR. came in and said do you mind if we put a feeding tube in.

I said  please do I could barely get in milk down him with the bottle.

Once the feeding tube was in place I felt total peace.

So did the DR. He said that he thinks that the seizeor was caused by low blood sugar.

I agreed. He then said said I think he will be fine for the night.

I spent the rest of the night just loveing on him.

I also took a moment to express my love to my Heavenly Father.

I new that it was by his graces that William was still alive.

That was just the beginning.

We ended up spending 16 more days at home with him..

Where we witnessed miracle after miracle.
