To Show I Understand your pain

When I was young so long ago,
Threatened I was though I didn't know,
My parents feared as to my fate
Afraid that the doctors would be too late.

And the doctors did all that they could,
For the fear of my parents they understood,
They opened my skull and saw the mass
Knowing that they had to work fast.

Many at the time feared those efforts to be in vain,
As my life this tumor continued to drain,
But those doctors' efforts weren't destined to be lost
For God had not let my death be the cost.

To show I understand what it is you're going through,
I have brought this message of encouragement to you,
As Christmas is a time of giving-as God's done,
And I do hope this brought peace to everyone!

Author's Note
This is based off a real experience I had when I was just a baby. I had a tumor the size of a large grapefruit enter my skull. The doctors thought that I was not going to make it and here I am today. They said at the time that I was a survivor of one of the biggest tumors they pulled from a child's skull in children's hospital history.
