The IRONY of it all

6 months ago I gave birth to my little miracle at UMC. It was a place of complete happiness and blessings. I never dreamed that it would be the same place that I would prepare myself to say goodbye to one of my most dearest friends. A friend who I have known and loved for 11 years. To get to the ICU part you have to pass by the maternity ward. Everyday I am reminded that with each baby who enters this world someone must exit. Thats just the circle of life....the way the world works. I can't help but smile when I pass by, thinking of the day God blessed me with my son. But the farther I walk down the hallway the joy disappears and my heart is filled with sadness as I prepare to enter ICU. I know God has his plans. I have to hold on to the hope that maybe, JUST MAYBE, Louise will wake up and pull through this and UMC will once again become my place of happiness and hope.
