A 39 year-old mother woke up to the tight gripping hands of his son in the coldness of the air-conditioned room.Opening her eyes slowly, she saw her son standing next to her, panting for breath and murmuring "momy..momy.. ".His chest was moving up and down like someone pumping air into a balloon..or someone who had just finished a 1500m race.
A signal like this,she knew it.It was one of the worst moments again.She must not be panicked.."Relax..calm down..think..." she told herself.She took a second to shake off all the drowsiness.The son was still standing helplessly, waiting for her momy's further action.In a split second, the mother grabbed her pants and blouse, a blanket and a car key and jumped into her maroon Kancil.She didn't even have time to brush her teeth or to wake her other three kids..3 yrs old..5 years old and 7 years old... who were still sleeping soundly in the comfort of the mattress.Other than that there was nobody living in her rented single-storey semi detached house.She left them at 3 oclock that morning in the hands of GOD..
Outside, a gush of cold air brushed her face as she carried and laid her son at the back seat, blanketed him.The son was still struggling and fighting for breath..stronger ang stronger..heavier and heavier.. She glanced at him and could see a deep hollow hole on his chest when he inhaled.She understood that well.Her kancil jerked and rattled through the still, deserted ,misty neighbourhood, passing nobody, meeting no one.Afterall, who would be in their sane mind to wander at the wee hours of the morning?
Leaving the neighbourhood, the mother now reached the town.The neon lights were lighted everywhere.From far ,she could see the traffic lights, red in colour.She drove apprehensively, at 100 km/hr, contemplating whether to stop or to hit the red lights.Looking left and right, not a single sole was around, she pressed the accelerator and the kancil went on fast passing the red lights.The journey to a country hospital which is actually 2 km seemed endless..
She drove off passing the school, the post office, and the town council.Her adrenaline was pumping faster than usual.Everything would be ok..everything would be normal.Suddenly everything at the back turned silent.She called for her son a few times but to no avail.. no reply.She turned and saw the breathing movement under the superman blanket.It should be ok then..
Upon reaching the parking lot of the hospital, the kancil was put into a halt.Ignoring the guard on duty, she craddled her son and ran for her life towards the red lights signaling EMERGENCY.Her voice disturbed the stillness and quiteness of the room. Everyone was up .The nurses were running towards her, the doctor was up and about even the the registrar was alert.She put her son on the sliding bed without waiting for instruction while the nurses was at once busy with all the wires and the gadgets. Everything turned chaotic.
A minute seemed hours. On the bed the son was struggling.He started crawling on the sliding bed and scratching the linen searching desperately for air.While crying he shouted..'MOMY..I can't breathe..i m gonna die.."The mother looking helplessly,shaking.. having not a single idea of what to do..what to say..Tears welled in her eyes and rolled down her weary cheeks..All she could do was to pray to god, to pray for the miracle..Her inner voice shouted..make it fast..make it quick..I cant lose my son..no..no..
Then after all were connected , the doctor grabbed the son, made him lie still and put the oxygen mask on his face.However, still he couldnt breathe ..struggling to tear of the mask, to pull the wires and to kick the doctor.The mother looking from far, prayed for the best...muttered the holly versus.5 seconds passed, the doctor managed to calm down the son with three nurses pinning on him. He began to breathe , heavier at first..then slowly relaxed and relaxed..inhaling..exhaling.. before peacefully falling into a deep slumber.
The mother dabbed her eyes and and gave a long sigh of relief..

Yes....
I believe you are a good mother. Your kids must be proud of you. There is no end to a mothers love for their kids. Your true story reveals that, no matter what, you will do your best for your kids.
I have heard of some stories where their kids left their mother and never had time to spend with their mother. But their mother will still love them no matter what.
I believe that your kids will be with you forever.
