"WHAT ANY LOVING PARENT WOULD DO"

"WHAT ANY LOVING PARENT WOULD DO"

A Poem by Melissa Darsey
"

This poem is about when our 6 year old daughter had fallen very sick since the middle part of August, & I put all my trust in God to heal her.

"
**Since August the 20th our Goo had fallen sick,
Just started Kindergarten, not long after her very 1st day.
Suddenly she felt better, then went downhill pretty quick,
First a sore throat, then positive for covid, now this "Croupe" cough, will not go away.
**But praise God in awhile, she'll start taking her steroid med,
On the road to recovery, & back to herself once more.
I can't believe it's so contagious or I would hold her close instead,
I was certain she had this "Croupe," because she previously caught one time before.
**Yet I couldn't help but notice that it would worsen more at night,
It looked like it was impossible for her to get any amount of rest.
I have a feeling this medicine will help her to finally be alright,
I can't imagine the pain, that's been pulsating throughout her chest.
**So last night I kept watch over our poor little Goo,
I just felt so horrible, my words cannot explain.
I didn't care if I had sleep, I did what any loving parent would do,
Because nobody wants to see their child suffer through so much pain.
