P. 26

When the time came, they set up their equipment and asked me to leave. I refused. I told the doctor I promised to stay
with her, not to leave the room. The doctor ordered me to leave. I declined a second time. He said he wanted to avoid
getting security involved. I agreed and told him I would sit in the far corner of the room and blend in with the
wallpaper. He said they would find me when they had finished; besides, she would be out of it and not even know I had
left her bedside. My reply, but I will know. I will not lie to her; I’m not one to panic, causing you any problems. So, let us
avoid a scene and get on with it. A second doctor stepped up and said it would be okay. He understood. Fifteen, twenty

monitored every bathroom trip. I felt so helpless. The only thing I knew to do is pray and hold her hand. So difficult
seeing her cry and in so much pain. Confusion from the drugs, not knowing what was happening to her. I witnessed the
most amazing, her faith in Yahusha, singing praises, and seeing the smiles appear through the tears. Earlier I was asked

Where was she taken in those moments of joy? I believe the Father came visiting. He has never failed to put a smile on
her face, not even in her darkest hours. I am still looking for that faith, that assurance, that love from the Father. If I
sound a little envious, I am.
