Hours past and still the operation is still on going, My parents also arrived here an hour after the operation started. We just keep praying and praying for my baby boy, My Luna.
6 hours passed and my sister came out of the Operating room, Crying..... I couldn't stop my tears from falling, "A-Ate... What happened, How's L-luna?" my voice is shaking and i couldn't talk to her straight "Luna is doing well but we couldn't take out all thone cancer building up, it's too risky. Luna is doing well but he's on coma We need to put him in ICU" Ate said I cried and cried because ICU has that beeping tool to monitor someones heart beat all the patient that's on ICU has their life on danger.
After an hour Luna is in the ICU, he looks so weak and tired, so many tubes connected to him, My poor baby. We couldn't go inside so we're just watching him outside the room in a glass wall. Fight my Luna.
2 days has already passed and Luna is still not recovering, Ate said his disease is getting worst, it's like the operation made it worst. Not a night that i didn't read a bedtime story for Luna, i know that he could still hear me, he could still hear her mommy.
On his third day of coma, we could enter his room already but with PPE I sat beside Luna's bed, i couldn't touch him since there's tubes all around his body.
I wanted to sing a song that i wrote for my Luna so i did, "I wanna be in the moon, or just beside it. I wanna shine bright like the stars in your eyes. Everytime i saw you looking outside, Staring at at beautiful stars in the sky. I see how they shine for you and i wanna shine for you too. That's why i wanna be in the moon, Or just beside it, I wanna shine bright, i wanna shine bright like the stars in the sky." "Hi my Luna wake up na, Mommy will play with you na. I will buy you lots of toys." I said while crying I kissed Luna's forehead and a tear of mine dropped in his face, i wiped it and walk towards the door to leave.
As i touch the door knob, all i heard is a beep... signaling a flat line from my baby, (tiiiiiiiiiittttttt) All was in slow motion i faced luna and saw that he's having a seizure, I saw the screen that shows his heart beat and it has a flat line. My Luna.
