Excellent A poem about my son after his birth The sickness by Brenda Strauser

On the second day after my first son was born, he contracted a sickness   Isolated and alone, my son couldn't be with me   A feeling of hopelessness consumed me day after day   The fever rose higher so I couldn't take him home from the hospital  Why is this happening to me?   Feelings of sadness stayed with me and I cried all the time   Depression set in and I wouldn't get out of bed   Visitation was set up but that wasn't enough for me   How can this be?  I want my baby boy  Why is this happening to me?   Questions filled my mind   What if he dies?  Will the high fever affect his brain?   How long will I be without my baby boy?   After two weeks, the fever finally went away   Happiness filled my heart when I heard the words, "He can go home now"   Words can't express the joy I felt when the nurse placed him in my arms   I was so thankful for God watching over him   Finally, my baby boy will be with me Author Notes Picture from Google. The hospital thought the sickness was a staph infection, but they weren't sure. All I know is that he was so little and very sick. This is a true story
