Both Mother and Daughter 2 No Heavenly End Gods Love

Once upon a time there lived
a young girl

Who eventually was to grow up
inevitably later into a young 
women

And when she did all she ever
wanted and dreamed of endlessly
then was to have a young daughter 
of her very own

And in time she surely did which
in tern made here complete and
truly happy having seemingly
had her every waking wish duely
granted

Now as the story goes just 2 
short years after having her 
beautiful baby girl

1 morning whilst in the shower 
peering down she noticed her hair
was starting to fall out

Then after booking an appointment
with her G.P in order to get it checked
out

She was later on her precluding
follow up appointment to discover
she was to be diagnosed with
terminal cancer

And what was to become of her
daughter

Well she herself no more than
2 years later to the day her very
self be diagnosed destined to
suffer the same erroneous fate

And all her family and countless medical caregivers had as cold
comfort to offer her was both
sadly and unfortunately nothing 
more and other than this

Your Mommy loves you so much
she cannot wait to see her beautiful
little baby angel again in heaven

And she left as she came into
this world with a smile beaming
across her face outwardly displaying
such joy and carefree abandonment
lust and verve for life

The likes of which this world i 
fear may never ever see once
again as it was a once in a lifetime 
as was she

Reading the deaths column in
the Echo i believe her funeral
is this coming sunday at her
local church where she will
be burried beside her mother

One can only pray and hope
that God will be there for both
her and her mother this time
if at all

What can I say Christopher other than it’s terribly sad when this happens, some conditions and cancers are hereditary by nature, if the mother is aware in advance she could pass on the cancerous genes, should she still have a baby? I cannot answer that question but the doctors should advise, I understand exactly where you’re going with this one religious wise, so I’m probably not the right person to ask to review, but it’s certainly thought provoking, and controversial, cheers David

Cheers for taking your time to comment and read. This is just something i thought or dreamed up but it obviously does happen or occur sadly. And everything happens for a reason or it is all part of a grand plan. To put it mildly is contrite at best and of little comfort i can only presume Cheers
