Faith... Miracles.. Love

Years ago, a single woman who suffered some stomach problems went thru a series of exams for detecting her problems. Lots of they involved chemicals and X-Rays and radioactive components. After even repetitions of some of they, she received a new... she was pregnant. What should be happiness was sadness: all the exams, all the things she drink for that intensive exams... all doctors said there was only one way: abort! she shouldn't bring a malformed brainless being to the world.
Single, aborting, and her family wasn't aware of the upcoming baby... everything looked like being at the very gates of hell... as usual she turned against God: "Father? if you were a father you wouldn't do this to me now!!!" Desperation... she quits. She was ahead with the abort.
She had an old medic friend, the family doctor who has to receive some results of the medical exams. She got in his room and she broke down. She told him her decision to abort.. to hide her shame from the world, to hear the reason of a whole hospital saying the truth.
The doctor told her not to quit...to have faith in God, to believe nothing will go wrong. "I am sure nothing will happen, and no one in you family can blame you for being a single mom! the important thing at all is the birth of a baby! and that should bring always happiness" He insisted to don't abort.. to believe once...
She suspended the abortion process, she simply canceled all. Doctors and nurses said she was out of her mind... "I want to believe... I am afraid,yes... I have doubts..but I want to believe everything will be all right.. God, help me and help the little being inside me!" she repeated..
Then she went to her family... instead of punishments, screams of shame or attacks.. she received hugs and greetings!! "Hey.. everything is getting good!" Lot of people started to celebrate the upcoming baby. She went then simply preparing the coming of the baby with love!
As time was coming closer the whole family became more and more involved: her cousins, her sister, uncles, aunts,... everybody was expecting. She never mention the exams or the abortion stuff..the shadow was around, but she decided don't give a single second more to the fear! "I don't know how or why... but he or she will come fine!"
Then the day came... once the baby was out, the same doctor who told her to believe was in the room helping the gynecolist on charge... her first question was "is everything ok? is normal? will survive?" ... the only answer was: "is a perfect boy".
That happened some time ago..and every year I celebrate that... because the faith of my mother made possible the miracle of being here writing this post.
If there's has been a secret in my life for my health, my success, my realized goals... is to remember that faith. A faith that started when I was first conceived from the higher..then followed for my mom...


I am human... I am not a perfect person... I made mistakes and I will more.. I missed to get goals and I had my falls (And surely I will fall again)...But I can't stop growing, I can't stop fighting.. I can't believe the miracle stopped in my birth... the miracle goes on and its promise is renewed every day!
