hi guys,allow me to share this with you as im getting a little 
sentimental. 

exactly two years ago i was wheeled into del gado hospital ER, was 
bleeding profusely and was so nervous because i had just come out of the 
hospital less than a week ago. i was 33 weeks pregnant. doc berdan was 
there already,( he was my anesthesiologist) and he prayed for me before 
the cs began.  i didnt know why my arms and feet were tied - i was naked 
in a very cold room - spread out like a frog about to be dissected.  i was 
pricked for anesthesia, for steroids, and i didnt know for what else. they 
could prick me all they want -  all i wished was for obi to come out 
healthy and normal. 

 3pm i heard obi's first cry - right before they "spanked" him.  here were 
all doctors telling me that he might have weak lungs because they were 
underdeveloped but my obi cried before the usual "spank". i just got a 
glimpse of him - so frail and small and still covered in blood.   

after that,i was wheeled out  - into the recovery room - but i couldnt 
sleep. honestly i was still so afraid that obi might not survive.  just a 
backgrounder: i have experienced two sibling deaths in the family - my 
sister who was born after me - her name was hyacinth - died when she was 
week old because she had a heart failure, our bunso who was named tulip - 
died because of peumonia and complications - she was a retardate and had 
this solid mass on the nape of her neck. her "ngala-ngala" had a hole - i 
remember how my mom would very carefully feed her everyday. my baby sister 
never learned to speak but we felt her love just as much as we made her 
feel ours.  she died when she was four. 

though i have never spoken about it until now - i was so afraid that i 
will lose obi.  i guess i have overcome the fear:-) 

obi stayed 9 days in the incubator -his appetite greatly improved.  he got 
out and was still so frail and small,so payat (check out my friendster to 
view the photos).  but now, he's such a happy healthy baby. so taba and 
has always been our bundle of joy.  he can speak so many words and is so 
cute when he tries to say "Jesus".   

thanks for reading my testimony - this is only one of the many things God 
has shown me and Ricky how faithful He is to those who put their trust in 
Him. 

they say that when it's your birthday people should be greeting your mom 
more because she was the one who really "suffered" if i may use the term 
so that you are borne into this world. well that's exactly what is 
happening to me now. to all the moms, mabuhay tayo!!!!
