This is about my very first surgery, a kind of humorous yet faithful poem in a way.

Dr. Dooley was our Pediatrician.

All I remember is a brief flash of being on the gurney and having Dr. Dooley pull out my stitches, "Down there", and it hurt like "Heck", so I kicked as hard as I could! Well, just read the poem....


I was very young,
Momma said,
when the doctor pulled the
tumor out for I was
only 2-3 yrs old!


The tumor was benign,
Praise the Lord!
The funny part,
looking back now but at the
time was very scary,
was when I was so scared I
Kicked Dr. Dooley right in the
head!
While he was taking out my
stitches, no less!
He remarked, to Momma later,
"You have got a strong girl there!"
Momma just smiled!

Dr. Dooley died in a tragic accident in 1987.

Written a very long time ago, in May of 1988, after High School graduation, just now finding it.Belongs to me, Rebecca (Becca) Estelle Henry.

Dear Gang,
I am feeling better every day. I do not want your pity. These poems are a way to express what happened to me, that is all. I just wanted to get that out! Please continue to do as you do. I love you all so much!
