He held the glass up to her small mouth and nose.
She was breathing, just barely.
Why were her eyes not seeing and why was she shaking her arms?
"It was a seizure," the doctor stated.
No reason why this should happen.
No clue, unless the optometrist knew.
"Sometimes eyes cannot see because the brain is not communicating with the eyes."
Back home to wonder why.
More doctors, more time.
Seizure medications were started and side effects were documented.
It took driving two and a half hours to see the specialist.
Several tests and several months went by.
Still we wondered why.
The birth was normal, she was beautiful, she smiled at us, she ate well.
What went wrong?
Only days before it all began we had realized our dream,
"Two little girls and a new home!"
"Yes! we would not be raising our little girl by herself, she would have a sister."
"Life is good!"
Thought: God prepares us for the hard times a little at a time.
