True story of our faith in crisis
Our Boy Wesley

The doctor said, "We must take blood"
My lad complied, he was so good Tests would follow And Chemo too We prayed so hard, "If only God would" More tests came and surgery too The boy took it all, whatever was due Scans and needles Days from home We prayed again, joined a long queue Wesley's mother stayed by his bed Our son was brave, though tears were shed Specialists visited Nurses were kind We prayed so long he wouldn't be dead Months became four years of pain He struggled on, taking the strain Now in Heaven Waiting for us Some ask, "will we trust God again?" |

This is a true account. Our boy Wesley was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma when he was three and a half, he passed away just after his seventh birthday in 1984. Despite a crisis of faith, I still believe in the Lord. The photo is Wesley with his sister and brother, taken after his first chemotherapy.
