Good day great hive minds...🌹
This has actually been one of the reasons I've not been able to do anything here on hive for almost 2 weeks.
It was just a week before the Christmas break when my mum was called to rush down to Abịa State as her sister has just been rushed to the hospital. I and my siblings where not allowed to travel yet as we thought it was just a simple sickness that will be treated after medications.
Days past by and we didn't get update on her sickness from the doctor. According to him, he wasn't very sure of what the sickness was and my aunt was dying. She had a huge Growth in her throat that prevented her from speaking and that same growth blocked her nostrils and it made it difficult for her to breath. We went into prayers and asking God to help us, we called various pastors to pray too in addition to the prescribed medication but nothing seemed to be working.
We decided to change the hospital where she stayed on the 30th of December as we weren't getting any significant result from the previous one and miraculously, she started feeling better, the growth started reducing,she started talking but slowly and was discharged. We were all happy and enjoying the New year day with happiness as I and my siblings later went to see her.
On Thursday the 5th of this month she started breathing heavily non stop I got very scared because I was the one with her in the room. I called for help and she was rushed to the hospital. The doctors did what they could do best and she stopped breathing very fast but she wasn't breathing properly, we kept praying, fasting and calling on God but it felt like he locked the gates of prayers at moment.
At exactly 7am this morning, my mum, her siblings and everyone was there when she started breathing heavily again, and this time I could see fear in the eyes of my mum and when the doctor came, he did what they did over and over and over again and he just turned to my mum and shook his head. MY AUNT WAS DEAD. Wailing covered the room at that moment.
That was the first time in my entire life I felt like the ground should really open and I should be swallowed. Mixed feelings clouded my mind, Am I dreaming? Is God really alive? Does it really have to be her? Why now?. We prayed, we fasted every single day but God still let it happen why? Who's gonna take care of her children now?
But I believe that God has a reason for everything even if we'll never be able to know these reasons, he sees and knows all.... that's just all I can say. I wouldn't want to feel negative about the year because of this but it's just so sorrowful.
Thanks for reading to the end guys....I appreciate. ♥️
