A gem of a story
This was a lovely story, Miranda. Thanks for sharing with us.
I like short stories as I'm not really a reader but this was very short and I wanted to know what happened next!! Good luck, Ailsa
Amazing that in such a short story the full gamut of emotions at the birth of a premature child is captured. A wonderful and well written story!
SCBU! a name from the past. Thanks for the comment bobbyg
very moving account of SCBU and the first few weeks of life which I also have experienced as a parent
Very short but powerful. I am not married and have never had a baby, and have always wondered what goes through the parents' minds during the first moments. You described it really well and the title was great, too.
My only suggestion, perhaps it could have been a few pages longer?
Thanks for the comment Akhenaten. It's so short because we were given ten minutes to write something and that's what came out!
Very touching and evocative, gave me shivers.
The story touched me on a personal level, my twins were premature and when you hear something as simple as a sneeze. You feel blessed! Awesome job!
Thank you so much Rex. It was one of those moments you never forget!
