Day 21 Haiku Friday --- A Plea for Two Friends



Sad new came this week
Things I didn't want to hear
Heart ache for two friends.

One in Kansas lives,
A tiny lump in her breast
Wasn't one but two.

A biopsy showed
Cancer cells are present
Even in lymph nodes.

Then news from Austin
Great joy, in her womb a babe
But some thing's not right

Something dreadful wrong
This tiny one may not survive
Both parents' hearts break.

Unanswered questions
That both friends seek answers to.
"Please, God, help them both."

I will pray for your two friends. Prayer is a powerful thing. I recently heard a similar story of a couple who conceived and the dr's said something wasn't right, so they watched her throughout and the baby was ok when she was born. Maybe this will happen for your friend too.
