    My father was leaving that afternoon on a business trip, I sat up to kiss him goodbye that is when, with no warning, no pushing, and no pain, my little girl Veda was born. My worst nightmare had come true, everything I had been trying to prevent was now happening, and happening fast. Twenty or so nurses ran into the room, as I looked down at the lifeless little girl in my bed. “She is stillborn” my father had cried. Sometimes a mother of multiples can give birth to one or two children and the others can remain inside for many more weeks. This was not my case, my little boys Oliver and Niles were to be born next. My father witnessed something not many fathers witness. My dad held my hand as I cried and pushed my two boys into the world. They were born breathing and rushed into the NICU. Many paragraphs could be written about the horrors of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. No mother or father wants to find themselves in that place. Unfortunately after 15 days, we had to make the hardest decision of our lives. My husband and I had to let the boys pass. They were suffering from breathing issues, brain bleeds, and a myriad of other premature baby issues. The world seemed like a different place, it was no longer the world I once

    So, I told my doctor I wanted to be induced. After all, my due date was only two weeks away and only five percent of women give birth on the day determined by their doctors. When I was finally there, I looked at the outside, the hospital was set in a suburban – like area, and when I went inside the building, I was in a welcoming ultramodern facility. I went straight to the labor and delivery section where they said my doctor had gone out of town; nobody believed that I was supposed to be induced that day. It took them like 15 minutes to confirm what I had told them, to finally decide to take me to a room to connect all kinds of tubes to my body. I went into the room; it looked very comfortable, but it was freezing. I lay on the typical hospital bed, one of those that make sleeping and resting easier.

This was a treat to me since she worked all the time so I never really got to see her. After I was buckled into my car seat and she got into the car, she told me she had a special surprise for me. We sang our usual songs and had a great time the whole way to the hospital and I even continued to sing once we were in the elevator. Once we were off the elevator we began to walk down the hallway to where my mother was. The walk seemed to take forever. Just when I was about to give up walking I began to see some of my relatives. The second I saw my Aunt Shirley I forgot how tired I was and ran as fast as my little legs would allow until I felt her warm embrace. After I was through with the usual rounds of hugs and kisses I was lead into the room where my mother and new baby sister
