My Best Christmas gift- 2001- Misawa,Japan

My Best Christmas Gift - 2001 Misawa , Japan... 
 It was two days past Christmas and in a snowy , cold night in Misawa, Japan, My youngest son was born Martin austria Paras = MAP.. He was a skinny baby but handsome.. I was so thrilled to be blessed with a another boy and witnessing the actual birth process was a experience in a half.. My first and My last time I want to see that.. Why? Well it was the scariest time of my life , because My wifey nearly bled to death and My son has lung issues. So , soon after his birth , I had to travel to Okinawa Japan, for Emergency baby care.. It was tough to leave my wife, she was clinging to life , but my son was in the same boat.. So imagine , In a instant I was on the top of the world ,, to the next feeling of helplessness and fear.. So off I went through a blizzard storm , riding in a rough plane ride.. I hate flying anyways , and it sure wasn't comforting that i had to deal with turbulence and the crying of my son all the way to the Island's.. 
 As soon as We arrive.. < full blown code blue. Lights and sirens. ambulance took Marty and myself to the Baby intensive care.. I saw other babies clinging to life and I thought Oh My God, Whats the final conclusion to my sons ordeal.. Yes, for the first time in my young life I was scared I was going to lose my son and wifey.. I was depressed and anxious. But I was also tenacious and aggressive.. I made sure those Nurses took care of My son.. I made sure they fed him on time and the meds were administered. Yup.. The yelling or demanding nature was in full force.. They the Nurse may have thought I was a Asshole..But Guess what ? I didn't give a rats ass what they thought. This is my son and anyone who has kids and love them.. I know you would demand such treatments.. I made a promise to my lovely wife.. Mona , Hang on and live I'm coming home with our son.. Gosh.. I'm tearing up just retelling this sorry.. But this is real life,, Its no joke.. At times you have to make sacrifices and be committed.. I didn't sleep well during those times and I spent alot of time with my son.. Sure I made time for myself.. and enjoyed the sights and sounds.. of the Island. But My main focus was My son Marty was going home healthy strong for Mona.. 
 After weeks it felt longer , My son Marty recovered , like his father , he fought and battled back.. I'm was so happy to see him alive and well. For the Nurse.. they became attached and they even cried and kissed me on the cheek and wished us well. I gave them heartfelt hugs and off to Misawa, Japan and brought home and started 2002 and a Good Note.. My son Marty and Mona recovered and were living life with family that came to Japan.. Uncle Wilbert and my loving caring sister in law Gladys.. It was a great time, they cooked and cleaned and gave us great comfort and support.. I will never forget what they did for us in our hour of need. Wilbert and Glad I love you so much and I can never repay you for all that you did during that time and now.. Those were much needed times with family that cares.. and to this day.. DEC 27, 2001 is the Greatest belated Christmas gift I will ever have.. It gave me a new feeling for the Christmas season.. Since years ago I lost My mother in law Mamang and my beloved Mama , Maring.. Now if that's not a heart warming and best Christmas, than  I don't know.. ???! TAKE CARE AND MERRY CHRISTMAS !!
