The doctors said my sister was most likely going to die at birth because of some serious health concerns. But my mom and dad felt she would be healthy and able to do anything.
When my parents told me I was going to have a sister, I was super happy. But when they told me that she might not survive, it was really hard for me. I wasn’t a Church member at that time, but I prayed and asked God to please let my sister live.
When she was born, the doctors managed to do a surgery that helped with her health struggles. She’s five years old now and doing super well.
Now I’m a member of the Church, and I try to pray to Heavenly Father as much as possible.
