Our brave lil' Raeanne

My dearest sweetheart,

It's been 10hrs since mummy last saw you.. Mummy misses you so much. How are you doing? Did you sleep well? Are you feeling better? Mummy wish I could go see you right away. But daddy is still sleeping.. (Mummy doesn't want to wake him up cos daddy hasn't had it easy since mummy started having labour pains. He had to run around, take care of mummy and had constant worries about our lil' darling..) and mummy isn't allowed out of bed unless accompanied cos mummy fainted yesterday morning after coming out of the washroom.. So writing to you, my sweetheart, is mummy's only way to overcome my missing you...

When mummy first saw you with the tube in the mouth for removing air in your tummy and the IV glucose drip, mummy's heart broke... You were barely one day old and you had to go through all these.. It must have been very painful for you. Mummy felt so sad and guilty.. Was it because mummy didn't do enough or eat enough nutritious food while pregnant with you that landed you in this state? My precious lil' one, mummy is so sorry... I wish I could take away your pain and discomfort..

But thank god, when we last saw you yesterday at about 9pm, the dr said that your stomach is already less distended. Upon hearing that, mummy and daddy felt more relieved.. But still, until you fully recover, daddy and mummy will still worry for you... For you are our most precious lil' baby..

My lil' one, you have been a very brave lil' girl.. Don't give up. Mummy and daddy will always be here for you, no matter what happens..

We love you, Raeanne..
