A “God’s wink” is what some people would call a
coincidence, an answered prayer, or simply an
experience so astonishing that it could only have
come from God.
I would like to share one of these moments that I experienced
with you today, in the form of a short poem.
Having lost my mother, grandmother, and many other
loved ones to breast cancer, it was a scary
diagnosis to receive myself. Here is what happened on
my surgery day.
—————————————-
A frightening day, that was so hard to face
I decided to put myself in a whole other place
As I lay alone in the hospital bed
Panic and fear are filling my head.
Anxiety getting the best of me
Oh, how will I get through the Mastectomy??
I will tell you now what worked for me,
I changed my thoughts with
Mental imagery.
They wheeled me to the operating room
So I close my eyes and pictured
GIVING BIRTH SOON!
This may sound so very strange to some
but there’s more to this story,
still yet to come.
I arose from surgery, was escorted to the door
And to my surprise, was on the
Maternity Floor!
I said to myself: this must be a sign……
This is surely
‘God’s wink’
and I knew I’d be fine.
