Chapter Fifteen

The power of prayer

I became pregnant again. I was twenty-five and Christopher was two and a half years old, and this time the first three months of the pregnancy were great; I had no morning sickness. One morning I decided to stay on in bed, with Christopher beside me, after Joe had gone to work. I woke an hour or so later. Christopher was fast asleep and I gave him a kiss and slipped quietly out of bed. I walked into our little front room and there was Angel Hosus, sitting in a chair. He told me to sit down.

'Angel Hosus, don't tell me something is wrong,' I said.

'No, Lorna, it's nothing serious. There is a mark on the baby's left-hand side. The doctors will be concerned and will send for a specialist from another hospital. You must remember it will be okay, your baby is perfect, but it just wants to be born in a hurry. That little baby is impatient for you to hold him in your arms. We angels and your baby's guardian angel will do everything to keep your baby where it is meant to stay for as long as possible – right in there, Lorna.'

Angel Hosus reached out and touched my tummy and I could feel the baby move.

'My baby knows you have touched my belly,' I told Hosus. 'I felt my baby move when I was six weeks pregnant, but my doctor said that was impossible. I know it's not.

He didn't answer my question, though, instead he told me, 'You are going to have a hard time from now on, and you will spend most of this pregnancy in hospital.'

A few days later I went to hospital for a scan and I could see my baby.

'You seem to have a very active baby,' the doctor said. 'Everything looks fine. He's no bigger than my thumbnail but his legs and arms are moving. He even opened his eyes and put his thumbs up to his mouth.'

The doctor decided that I should stay in hospital for a few days' rest and I was brought up to a ward. Joe went home but returned that evening with the bits and pieces I would need. I ended up staying in hospital for a week, and when the doctor said I could go home, I felt very happy and well.

I was only home for about two weeks before I was back in hospital again.Mum took care of Christopher so that Joe could continue going to work – he had recently got a job with the local County Council. Christopher fretted a lot and it was not easy for Mum to console him, but
