There's a lot to unpack here - a bittersweet moment of birth without the loving father, the music factor that bound the parents together now emerging as a lullaby, and the new life that will progress from this point forward. Thanks for the share and good luck for the contest.

I appreciate how much you "get" this as well as your kind words of encouragement for the contest. Thank you.

Comment from Julie Helms

Excellent

This is really beautiful! A type of circle of life from the death of the father to the birth of the child. Very poignant. I can relate to the attitude also toward the stupid things the doctor would say. Lovely ending poem, all around great story.

Thanks so very much for this really nice review, Julie. It means the world.

The poor doctors, though; they're trying so hard to make the best of a terribly painful time!
