MARVELLA.... the begining


okay, so for all the olofofo's that have called or sms in asking for the full gist as per the last seven days.. here we go ehen, before we go on i must tell y'all i have this new found respect for women..dammmn, wat my baby (thats the mum)went through is something i am not sure we can go through with again.. it was absolutely humbling, if anybody talk say God no dey that person must be insane, u can quote me on that,
last Sunday was one of the most terrifying yet exciting day of my life, we couldn’t go to church cos she was not in the right frame of mind and i could see she was in distress, she insisted i go to church that she could take care of herself, i said no way, i wanna stay by ur side, later on in the evening she was holding her tummy and complaining of cramps, i then knew the moment was gradually drawing near, i took her to a private clinic near the house, the nurse there was like we should go home blah blah blah, that it was nothing serious, i took her home and we went to bed, around 1 am Monday morning, she woke me up, and alas.. it was on, we quickly picked up all the essentials and drove down to the hospital with my very good friend and brother Andrew yohanna, she was taken to the delivery room and we were told to go to the waiting room,
ol boy i couldn’t stay there oh.. i just went to the car and started praying, i didn’t know i could be such a prayer warrior, to heighten my anxiety, the first woman to come out, came out dead and the baby died too, ahhhhhhhh, the next lost the baby but managed to cling to life.. ol boy come see prayer.. yohanna joined me too, her labour took us till 9.30am where i was always peeping through the window to try and see if i could catch a glimpse but to no avail, i sent her a note telling her how much i love her and how the lord is her strength and all that, the nurses were laughing at me and wondering how i expected her to read the note, but i insisted the note should get to her... around 10am, i was called to the waiting room and handed the most beautiful thing i have ever seen..when i held her, my legs started wobbling.... i couldn’t believe how beautiful and peaceful she looked, i almost started crying but then i remembered "men don’t cry in hospitals" behave urself i said, u wan disgrace urself?.. i had to wait another hour before my wife came out thanking me for giving her a beautiful baby, i told her "honey, no be me na God".. we hugged and kissed much to the chagrin of others in the hospital, abeg make dem leave us joo, me and my wife dont have a problem with public display of emotions.. after prayers and thanksgiving, we headed home to begin fresh chapter in our lives
thanks to all that were there with me at the hospital during the waiting period and after.. big regards to Andrew yohanna and his wife, Ruth, 8 hours together at the hospital shows u are a real friend, sola niyi, God bless oh.. when u go marry make i come help u too?, abafaras Abednego, u too much, Rev.
