After eight hours inside the operating room, we didn’t walk out feeling like heroes
We walked out quietly, offering a prayer of gratitude, because one fragile heartbeat had finally found its rhythm again

Time stood still while a life balanced on the edge.

Hands moved with purpose. Minds stayed focused. Hearts asked God to guide us through.
When the monitor finally settled into a steady pattern, we shared a look of relief
This was not a miracle we could take credit for,
but a blessing shaped by skill, endurance, and grace beyond our own strength

Now the exhaustion sits heavy on our bodies, but our hearts feel lighter.
A child gets to go home.

A family is given more time together
We are not looking for praise.
Only that this is remembered:
behind every white coat is a human heart that prays, fears, hopes, and feels deeply.

If you can, take a moment today to offer gratitude
for God’s mercy and for every healthcare worker who shows up each day to fight for life.
