"Come on bebe push I know you tired but us have a little more work to do."
I held on to Laurent's hand as the baby continued to make her way into the world. I looked over at Raquel who was giving Larry the business. Poor Larry I thought. I heard Laurent's voice still telling me to push. I beared down once again and pushed.
"Good bebe almost there."
I was extremely exhausted I just wanted to sleep. My eyes began to shut.
"Non non mon belle non time for sleeping push us almost there."
It seems like I have been pushing for hours. I laid on our bedroom floor trying with everything in me to bring our daughter into the world. Once she was out everything went dark. I could hear Laurent calling my name but I couldn't answer. I heard my mother in the background screaming.
"Heaven don't you dare die."
DIE? Whose dying?
All of a sudden I felt tear drops fallen on my body. I wanted to comfort him. I could feel every emotion as if it were my own.
Suddenly I felt electricity coursing through my body. Larry, Laurent and Raquel screaming don't leave us. I laid there bargaining with God to let me live.
"We got a pulse." I heard the emt worker say. We were all rushed to the hospital. The babies were healthy but I was teethering between life and death still.
Larry was stuck between comforting Laurent or taking care of Raquel.
"Go take care of your brother and come back with good news tell me my sister is okay."
Laurent was falling apart his reason for living was laying on the table in the clutches of death. He wept unashamed in his brothers arms. My mother arrived 30 minutes later distraught.
"Where's my daughter?" She screamed. Lau gathered his thoughts and comforted my mother.
"Heaven strong Momma she non going to leave us."
By now Larry had called Mama B. She was going to take the first flight she could. There was more commotion in the hospital as they tried to get Raquel to stay in her bed.
With tears in her eyes she said " not until I know my sister is okay."
The doctor finally came out from the back my family sitting on pins and needles waiting to hear anything.
"Are you the Michaels Family?"
"Yes" they all sai in unison.
"Well I have some good news and some bad news."
