I wanted to share this part of my life with you that some may not know about. As most of you know, May 2012, I had a miscarriage when I was 4 months along, but what you might not know is, that in December 2012, I lost another one due to an ectopic pregnancy. This is a very dangerous pregnancy and can be fatal to the mother. My Doctor from the US told me to not even risk flying to the US for the procedure. The chance of it rupturing was very high, which in turn, causes hemorrhaging, leading to death if I could not be seen immediately. A very scary thought! I had 2 choices, stay here, have the procedure done and maybe never having a child again. (Here, if you are under and they wanted to remove something to "practice" on you, they would. This was in the papers from a woman this happened to.) Or, take the risk of flying and seeing someone who could properly take care of me, I chose the latter. ***
I'm not saying all of this because I want sympathy, but rather to send encouragement to someone else who may be going through something similar. Since I have gone through this, I have read where several friends and acquaintances have lost a baby as well.
I'm not saying it's always easy, because yes, I still have my emotional ups and downs. BUT what I am wanting to say is, when you are going through that emotional roller coaster and thinking, what am I going to do, then pray and think on these lyrics posted below, because PRAYER REALLY CHANGES THINGS!!! (ORACIAN EN REALIDAD CAMBIA LAS COSAS)
I know what sadness is; I’ve had my share.
I know what gladness is; cause I’ve been there.
I know the peace and joy my God can bring.
Down on my knees I’ve learned what really changes things.
The only way to God is earnest prayer.
Just breath that Holy Name and He’ll be there.
He knows the grief we bear and knows our every need in prayer.
Just take it to the Lord, prayer changes things.
I know just how it feels to really believe I’m alone
when sorrow has no end and all hope seems gone.
I turned my eyes to Him, and new strength I gained,
and it’s then again I learned what really changes things.
The only way to God is earnest prayer.
Just breath that Holy Name and He’ll be there.
He knows the grief we bear and knows our every need in prayer.
Just take it to the Lord, prayer changes things.
Just take it to the Lord, prayer changes things.
"Don't Worry, Be Happy"
***The clinic I go to here has very professional doctors. I go to the US under their recommendation. Due to the more up to date technology, I go in for any major medical visits.***
