Through the eyes of the father
Hello everyone, hello friends.

My name is Kristián and I am the father of a wonderful child called Leuško. Together with Evka, we went through life, sharing experiences and beautiful moments, when I understood that she is a wonderful woman and I want to spend my life with her, in an unknown future, full of happiness and beautiful moments.

I jumped onto this journey in a completely traditional way. First I asked her to marry me and I waited tensely for her response. She said yes J and we got engaged. We moved in together to an apartment with our pet, a hamster. Within almost a year and a day since she said yes to me, we tied the knot. It was one of the most beautiful days of my life and I hope that of my wife’s as well.
The wedding was great, we enjoyed it with our family and friends and we still felt that we had some love to share. That’s why we decided to become a complete family and the next year we were expecting our son, Leuško. My wife went through the entire course of pregnancy excellently and after each examination, the doctor in Trnava stated that our son met all the parameters of a healthy baby and that he was developing according to the charts. So we kept waiting for our little one. As he needed a longer stay he came exactly one week after due date.

It was the night of the birth and we had decided for the Ružinov hospital, so I was ready to leave at any hour directly from Trnava. They took my wife in and I waited. The night was windy and rainy and the sky was dark. I wanted to get to the hospital as quickly as possible when I saw that my wife’s contractions were quite strong. By the way, dear women, dear mothers, hats off to you, you deserve the respect of all mankind.

They took my wife in for observation but of course she was not in labour yet. So they sent me home to Trnava, where I slept a bit, but all night I was looking forward to our little one and wished my wife would feel great and the labour would go smoothly.

I received a message in the morning that I have time to have breakfast but she will give birth soon. A moment later I received a second message that she was going into labour right now and that I should come as soon as possible. Of course, I did not hesitate and dashed to the hospital, because I was really looking forward to both of them. The birth went smoothly, she managed the whole thing very bravely and I am proud of you Evka.

They took the baby, but I still had my wife’s hand in my hands and comforted her that our baby boy was born, but his cry was not immediately heard in the air. I was stressed and in anticipation, so I waited for the call from the doctors that I could go get my son, but later we learned that they had to resuscitate him. When I saw him, I knew right away that I would love him for the rest of my life. At the same time I feared for his life and experienced the greatest worry of my life that something more serious had happened to him. I broke out in a cold sweat and had to take a deep breath. He had a deformed right leg. You have a thousand questions on your mind for which you were not prepared as a father. It shocked me and the first questions were not about the leg but whether the other organs and the rest of that sweet and fragile body would be okay. They helped me take him to his mom and it was love at first sight. We cried together in joy and promised each other that we would take care of him for the rest of our lives, even if it was beyond our strength, and that we will love him very much.
