HOW IT HAPPENS

One day, long time ago, my mother was about to deliver me and my father was with her in the hospital, because that time, not all hospitals were equipped for some sensitive delivery and so my father decided to transfer my mother to another hospital as my mother was suffering from some kind of seizure, one of the nurses in the emergency room gave my father some stick saying that if in case that my mother will encounter this seizure my father has to put this stick to my mother's mouth so that she will not gnash her teeth and to avoid damaging her tongue. And the time has come while along the way travelling to another hospital my mother experienced the seizure and my father has remembered the instruction of one of the nurses in the emergency room, so he did as what was instructed to him and my mother gave birth to me and that is why I was born in this world and I was not placed in an incubator or intensive care unit and my parents were happy to know that I do not have some sort of any deformities or some kind of traces that I was not in good shape.

As the years past, when i was at the elementary level, I became a side kick of my polio brother, he was older than me by 3 years, we both started schooling from elementary up to high school. And because of this situation, I used to carry his bag with full of books and other things. And most of the time, we have to take a long walk before we reached our school. So can you imagine my hardship in the hands of my polio brother. But you know, there was on many occasions that we had a fight, but this was true and common to all brothers.

When I looked back at my elementary age, there was one occasion when I was bumped by a bicycle, I was ranning towards him, so what happen, the guy who bumped me was the one who felt down while me has no pain nor scratch on my body, thinking that I was only just a small boy. Yes, am still young when I witnessed how my father and I almost met a car accident, the feeling was, I have no feeling at all, it seems that if you are really in near death experience, you will have no feelings, just like, you are waiting to be slaughtered, waiting what is to come, we escaped the valley of death.

I did not finish my elementary in one school because we moved to another area or location, so it follows that I need to transfer my elementary and that was the time I was in grade 4 when this thing happen. The reason of our transfer was the house and lot were sold and these properties were inherited by my mother from her parents. Because my father needed the money to support his bar review in order for him to become a full pledge lawyer and my mother agreed to sell the said house and lot and that was the reason we moved to another place and rented an apartment instead that was close to the school.
