A Soul Awakened

He lay there, unable to move a vibrant young man, his mistake going too fast on a wet greasy road slipped slithered and crashed into a wall His life was rugby, football all sports forever keeping fit, had new girl will she stay around, doesn’t want pity just love, love of each others hearts He has lain there for 6 months now feels the inevitable twitch now and again just muscles flexing themselves, giving hope to the person without any, until that day His surgeon came to him, “ There is a breakthrough, always an element of risk” Without a second to think he answers I am ready to take that chance Epidural spinal cord stimulation and repeated motion training. After a short time he can now stand for a few minutes and move his toes. His soul is awakened belief in prayer answered he smiles again Hard work and hope will bring him through The light at the end of the tunnel is now near.
