Told that your dreams,
Would never come true,
That a double miracle,
Would be needed for you,
To have the gift,
Of baring your own,
You must have felt,
So sad and alone,
Years spent on treatments,
And IVF
And when they didn't work,
What options were left?
Be left in debt,
Or accept your fate?
The hope inside you fading,
Thinking it was too late,
I knew you were struggling,
But trying to live,
Why wouldn't god,
Give you the right to this gift?
We went out to parties,
You let you hair down,
Drinking and laughing,
When we hit the town,
Sipping champagne and cocktails,
Whilst out on your hols,
But everyone could see,
Your brave face taking it's toll,
On break one day,
I told you I was scared,
A lump had appeared,
And I wasn't prepared,
That's when you said,
'Can you keep a secret Em? '
'I'm pregnant, ' you whispered,
Only 9 weeks then,
You showed me the scans,
I was so thrilled for you,
And of course for your husband too,
It's been stressful incase,
Things went wrong,
You must have had Guardian angel,
Guiding you along,
Each day went by,
And you looked ready to burst,
And today 15th April 2014,
You gave birth to your first!
A beautiful boy,
So tiny and sweet,
At 7.15lb,
All squidgy and neat,
I'm so proud of my best friend,
I really am it's true,
She never believed her double miracle,
Would ever come true!
