Beskrivelse
It's never easy losing a loved one no matter whom that loved one may be. However, the loss of a child is never expected neither is it anticipated. So, when the inevitable happens she becomes devastated and numb to the fact unknowing how to react or deal with such a tragic event. Kelvin's Journey is based on a series of events which took place within a military family.
Both soldiers serving on active duty, dealing with the daily struggles of life trying to find their way in it. Their lives started out as two young soldiers finding love while serving in a foreign country. It was the beginning of a beautiful friendship/relationship despite the twists and turns which took place prior to their union of marriage.
This is a true story based on a mother's perspective of her life and her marriage. It depicts the daily ups and downs she faced and the choices she made within her marriage and family life. Becoming a soldier, a mother and a wife. It's an emotional roller coaster ride of events.
It delves into mother hood and child birth. How do you prepare for either? There aren't any step by step instructions or a how to book to explain It is simply a series of choices a mother makes in life based on her belief that the outcome will be for the betterment of her family.
It evolves even deeper when she was thrown into premature labor, having a son born at 26 weeks in (1996), whom was diagnosed with severe life altering complications/conditions. The birth and survival of her son changed her family entire dynamics.
She then had to choose between her career as a soldier and her role as a wife and mother. Again, she makes the choice to care for her son and give up her career for the betterment of her family. Unbeknownst to her this choice would make a devastating impact on her entire family and would change the direction of her entire life path.
Throughout the course of her life she began to realize the consequences of her choices and how they impacted her love ones, (husband and daughter), and eventually herself as well. She had taken on a challenging task of caring for her disabled child with severe medical problems. What other choice could she have made?
She soon began to realize that this was her new life and with it came the day to day caring for her special need child. As time passes on, while caring for her family, she noticed subtle changes in her daughter's behavior. Not wanting to believe that there was a problem but knowing there was one.
In her attempt to move past it, things only worsened, as she notice's disturbing behaviors from her husband as well.
In going over all that she had done she soon realizes that even though her actions in which she felt were for the betterment of her family ultimately changed the course of her entire life which ended in divorce, estrangement of her daughter and ultimately the passing of her son do to medical related causes.
Throughout it all she relied upon GOD for her support and her strength. Life is about a series of events which create choices. The choices we make throughout our lives help to shape us into the individuals we become. They also have an impact on the loved ones around us. Some for the good and some not so good. Throughout it all there were lessons to be learned. I hope my story inspires
others to find strength through adversity.
