"I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb..." J1:5
My son, Owen, was born a few weeks before he was due. He was what was called a "blue baby," and if we waited any longer, he might not have been born alive at all.
We had Rh incompatibility. This occurs because the Rh factor is a protein on red blood cells, and the mother being Rh-negative and the baby being Rh-positive can lead to the mother's immune system attacking the baby's red blood cells.
What this means is that my body was attacking my son, and although I was treated for it, it seems it still affected my son, because he stopped growing in the last month of my pregnancy and was born a small 2.5kg (5.5 pounds).
The doctor speculated that this may have started when I was around 8 months pregnant, and we were in a small car accident, it was not even that big, but the seatbelt of the car injured me, and that was probably when our blood mixed and my body started attacking my poor boy.
After he was born, he soon recovered and became a very big, healthy baby boy who met all his development milestones they tested for perfectly, except for talking. Owen did not want to speak in sentences.
I should have known better even then, although I did not know the Lord yet. I was what the world would probably call an atheist, so my belief was in science and people, not God. He was able to communicate his basic needs to us, and he was such a funny little boy. Everyone assured us that his speech will follow, there is nothing for us to worry about.
My son spent his first 3 years with his grandma and grandpa, which was such a blessing because I was working outside the house, and at least I had my in-laws to take care of him, but when we decided to let him go to kindergarten or creche, as some in South Africa call it and he was with children his own age, the gap in his ability to speak looked so huge because it was compared to other children. That is when therapy was suggested, and his journey started and I was willing to do anything the world told me, because in the back of my mind, I felt it was my fault, that my body rejected my son and all of this was happening to him because of me.
Please take this journey with us as you see how He healed both of us on this journey. We will post it every month on the 14th.
