This write up is dedicated to my mummy as she celebrate another new age strong and healthy after battling with a sickness that almost took her life but she came out very strong and healthier than before because she is indeed a fighter what didn't kill her made her stronger and better

From when I was little I have know her as someone who doesn't let her situation get the best of her she will always have an ideal in every situation
I remembered when my senior brother got his admission to enter the university boom there was no money anywhere well my mummy wasn't really favoured in marriage so it was like a single mom taking care of her five kids yet she didn't give up on us with her everyday assurance telling I and my siblings that we must all go to school no matter the matter
My brother got his admission to study engineer in school he almost gave up because almost to the time of closing the admission portal the money was not there but then mummy did her magic well I don't know what she did them cause I wasn't really at the age of knowledge as at then but my brother went to school studied his dream course and came out with flying colours
And later on it was my turn to go to uni buff I think I know exactly what mum did for big bro hmmm she went as far as calling all her contact list informing them of my admission even had to sell one of her beautiful wrapper just for me and every morning and night we were under both the sun and the rain trying to make more sells to meet up with the finance most nights I wake up to see my mum crying and praying to God for my sake and God really did answer her as today am almost becoming a graduate my younger sister too studying nursing is also almost finished with her course of study yeah my mom is just the best among the best

But earlier last year she fell sick so sick that she totally bent and could not be able to stand straight on her own even when she's holding on to something she still can't stand for like 5 minutes her blood pressure became so high the doctor said she had an ulcer and other big grammar word he called that I can't even remember now but my mummy was gradually fading each time I hear her voice I cry I got so scared of losing her she hasn't enjoyed the fruits of her labour so she's too Young to die and who's going to stand in the gap for her if she's no more no no no I couldn't even imagine it
All the medications weren't helping matters we become regular customer to different hospitals yet nothing we were almost giving up hope but then we still looked onto God and kept praying and believing his going to do a miracle and ohhhh sure he did

One day I was listening to this music yeah I love listening to music a lot it helps me forget the challenges I was facing once I put on my ear piece it's always as if my problems flys away and peace with Joy overshadows my heart as I was going through my song list I saw this PETER GABRIEL SONG DON'T GIVE UP

After listening to the song I quietly went to my mum's bed and kept my phone with the song still playing on repeat I went inside my room and cried and prayed to God to heal her later on that day when I went to collect my phone she begged me to leave the song for her that she's loves it woww yeah my mum also loves music as she's a singer too she told me the song was her favorite song while she was growing up
Almost everyday and night I played that song for her and then gradually her smiles were coming back
God finally did his miracle my mum got healed of the sickness she was gradually standing on her feet again without pain or crying her blood pressure went back to normal even though the sickness took a lot of flesh from her she became stronger than before and this mark exactly almost one year she was healed of that sickness her last year birthday was celebrated on the sick bed but Todayyyy

She's on her feet celebrating her birthday with joy and happiness even dancing to every music that was played
The very big reason why I played STRONGER BY KELLY CLARKSON For her on her birthday indeed what didn't kill her made her stronger and as a fighter she overcame her challenges and conquered her battles and fears when the sickness taught it held her down it actually made her stronger to stand taller that which didn't kill her made her a fighter with footsteps even lighter

My mom is my role model a woman who doesn't take a negative response for an answer and I love her for that
Today I wish her a very big
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LONG LIFE IN HEALTH AND VITALITY RICHES AND HONOUR AND MAY GOD CONTINUE TO STRENGTHEN HER MORE THAN MORE

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY SUPERWOMAN

I LOVE YOU AND YOU KNOW THAT
