Midnight Clear Julie L. Byrnes

In the summer of 2005, I was in a place some parents live in fear of and certainly no parent ever wants to be in. I was in a hospital watching and praying beside the bed of my 3 year old daughter who was clinging to life after suffering a stroke as a result of a serious illness. As the days, nights, and subsequent years have gone by, it has become clear that there was far more to this event than what I could initially see. In this moment of overwhelming darkness the light of the truth came in and my life was forever changed.
