Private Room

Mouth Drop,
In exactly 100 words creatively describe one moment when your mouth dropped open, chin hit the ground, and tears rolled down your face (figuratively or not). If you prefer to develop this into a longer post, that’s fine too!

The sun shined through the window of my cold, quiet, private, hospital room that mid July day. The thin white blanket covered my bare legs stopping beneath my twenty-two week belly. I somberly glared at the wall with both hands gripping each side of my belly, feeling the lives inside me. The doctor came in and sat in the wooden chair next to my bed.

Shelley, your water has broken and you will most likely go into labor in the next forty-eight hours. My mouth opens and my chin drops as tears still roll down my cheeks.

  1. Oh Shelley, I’m sure that those moments with forever be etched in your mind and heart… but I hope with each passing day, the hurt becomes less and with the knowledge that one day you will see your precious little ones again… Diane

    1. I lost my boys in 2008, I still think of them though and write about them on my blog. The pain isn’t as raw as it once was. I don’t talk about them to much in my social life. This has been an outlet. Where I can mourn and honor them. Thank you for your comment, follow and words they’re appreciated!
