章 57: Chapter fifty seven
Having kids
Giving birth
Laura said "the day is here, I'm ready for anything to happen."
Jakes said "what should happen is you giving birth to our health kids and you being here to raise them."
Laura said "I am trying to not think about what the doctor said, I'm thinking about what God said I will have two girls."
Jakes said "I won't lie I'm scared, I don't want to lose you and what will I do without you?"
Laura said "you are a great father to Elijah and I know you will be awesome father to our children. "
Jakes said "don't talk like you will die there, you will come back to me and you did it before with that car accident you were involved into. So I'm not going to say I love you I can't lose you because you will wake up and I will tell you all these things."
Laura said" I know and I love you so much."
At hospital
The babies were born, strong and healthy. Laura was not responding, she was 40 years old her when her miracle came true, God's timing when she wanted kids she was 26 years old.
Laura was still in the hospital for days not waking up.
Jakes said "My Angel, you did it two girl's you already know that, I need you to fight come back to me to our kids, you will be an amazing mother and you already are. Waking up without you, everything at home, the earth the nature and when I look up, the sea, all I can see is you everywhere. I need you to come back to me and our kids. My sunshine, my best friend and my soul mate."
Eric and his wife Sofia and their children, Elijah who was now a doctor. Emily and Evelin they were always there praying and hoping that she will wake up one day before they decide to switch off the machines.
Jakes sitting next to Laura, "My Angel come on open your eyes, lord you have never fail me and you won't start now, do it lord not just for me everyone here must know you're God you are good. You perform miracles, let them see you God and let this miracle change their lives and surrender to you I thank you lord.���
Jakes crying thanking the lord as Laura opened her eyes. Jakes called the nurse.
Before this happened, the doctor told jakes to prepare himself that his wife might not wake up. The doctor was shocked " this is unbelievable, I need a strong drink, in my years of practice have never seen or witness such, it's a miracle not a word I use in my life or work"
Jakes said "here are your beautiful kids, healthy and strong just like their mother."
Laura said" oh my babies, they are both perfect, they have their dad's eyes Thank you lord and I'm bless to have man like you who has crazy faith in God."
Jakes said "life without you, I don't want to think how it could be, I need you here be an incredible mother to our kids."
Laura said "I'm here, I know it was scary and just thankful I'm alive. I have man who prays and it's your prayers darling."
They prayed and thank the lord and people got saved at the hospital. They couldn't wait to go home excited to raise their children.
Not just baby blues
Jakes said "I'm worried about my wife she cries a lot and exhausted all the time."
Emily said "might be baby blues, I was like that when after I gave birth. The baby keeps crying, you only sleep when the baby sleeps."
Jakes said "we have the nurse helping us, still she hasn't bonded with the babies and I read on postnatal depression."
Emily said "you think she has it?"
Jakes said "I think so, I know the dangers of using Google and coming to your own conclusion, a doctor agreed to come to check on her later today. She refuses to see the doctor. "
Emily said "parenting is hard, people telling you what to do or not to do, she probably feels helpless and you need to be there for her."
Jakes said "I promised her I will always be there for her and will figure this out."
Emily said "seems like you know what to do, go to your wife and tell her all will be fine."
Jakes got home, found his wife crying in the bathroom, sitting in the bath while the water was running down.
"I'm here love, it is okay I got you. I should have realise how serious this is, the doctor will be here" jakes said. Laura feeling hopeless, helpless, exhausted and she was thinking of harming herself.
The doctor told them that Laura has postnatal depression and referred her to the right care she needs , medical professional.
Laura thinking about her friends or her church members would say "you are depressed you prayed for these babies, you got your miracle now you are going to tell us you are struggling" some churches don't want to talk about such issues, mental health issues. Yes, we believe in miracles and also believe in getting help. Pray, Speak out and get help. No one has it all together, we are all struggling and need each other. Don't be like" you are Christian and you're depressed" while I'm not trying to act like I have it all figured out. Lesson here was to be able to speak out and get help. Most of the time postnatal depression is confuse with baby blues. With baby blues, they don't last that long they pass within weeks of giving birth does not require medical intervention whereas postnatal depression does. She got help and she was bonding with her children.
