HEALED AFTER GIVING BIRTH
When my second child was born, little did I know I was about to witness another beautiful demonstration of God's power.
The baby had arrived seven weeks early and weighed less than four pounds, but the doctors were not concerned for her. Immediately after the birth, however, I diagnosed with an obstetric complication involving the placement of the placenta. This had been the case with our first child, but the doctor had quickly remedied the situation. So when the doctor recommended what I thought would be the same nonsurgical procedure, I agreed. As it turned out, the procedure was more complicated than the doctor had anticipated, but she was happy with the outcome and sent me home.
As my husband and I made trips to the hospital to be with our baby, I overlooked the fact that I didn't feel well. I even wrote off the way I felt as being normal for someone who had just given birth. We brought our daughter home on her eighth day, happy and healthy. The demands on me increased—as did a variety of symptoms, including tiny blisters on my hands and feet.
