When life gives you a second chance, give your best shot; fortunately for me he did not shoot, but that did not deter me from having reoccurring thoughts like “what if the guy who approached us was reckless; and killed us.” God’s plan had a greater purpose, and although, at the time, I was unsure and questioning, “why me?”, I am blessed to have the opportunity to write this blog 19 years later. In fact, in 2015, it hit me, as my wife and I were near the end of our pregnancy and made the conclusion that it would be in the best interest that we pursue a C-section. Although the due date was October 8th, with twins full cycle is 38 weeks; for that reason, the doctor had to choose a date, so we can make plans to be ready on that day, and she opted for September 25th. A surreal moment for me; everything became a full circle. All the years of saying “Happy 925 day” to my best friend now had new meaning. I truly understood my purpose and why GOD kept my friend and me alive, which so I can help birth two beautiful girls into the world. You can’t make these things up!
