Her Life

Our Miracle

November 19, 2014

Stephanie Jo came into this world on a beautiful starry night.  She weighed 6 pounds 10 ounces.   Unknown to us and the doctors Stephanie was going hungry in my womb my placenta was not feeding her.  The doctors said that she had lost weight her last weeks inside of me and that this had caused a hole in her heart.   The next day they told us that I could not take her home and they sent in a specialist who explained that she would eventually need surgury to close the hole.  I smiled and said can I call our pastor?  Pastor Mick came with some oil and annointed our darling angel and we prayed for her heart.  Doctor Smith came in about an hour later and listened to her heart but he could no longer hear the murmer. The doctors must have come in and listened to her heart five times that day before they decided I could take her home.  Dr. Smith said I want you to bring her to the clinic in a few days so I can check on her.  I took her to the clinic and he could not hear the woosh from the hole.  I told him that the Lord had healed her and he just smiled.  I had to take her to see him every week for six weeks before he finally admitted that it appeared the hole was gone.  Stephanie was always in Gods hands.  I never had any doubts about who was truly in charge of her life.  I was and still am just thankful for the time that we had.  I would not trade the nineteen years and 6 months for anything.
