There is nothing more painful than seeing your loved one fight for his/her lives. No one can stop death. But in the final moments surely we all wish to cherish every moment with our loved ones. A brain tumor patient named Brett is no exception. He kept himself alive just long enough to meet his third baby.
Brett and Nicola started as friends, became best friends and then fell in love. The couple happily got married to each other and became parents to two gorgeous daughters.
Nicola said that she was happy because Brett was a wonderful dad. However things suddenly changed due to his health. Changes in his behaviour was observed by Nicola much earlier however only in 2015 they got a devastating diagnosis that Brett had a brain tumor.
According to Nicola, the neurologist informing them that the surgery could end by either removal of tumor or ᴅᴇᴀᴛʜ. Fortunately they took out the tumor as much as they could. When Nicola was pregnant the third time, the tumor again grew back. This time it was more threatening and could not be treated.
Three months later Brett at home had a seizure and was immediately taken to Milton Keynes while Nicola was in labor with her third baby at Luton hospital. After giving birth to baby Arya, Nicola only wanted to fulfil Brett’s wish- to hold his newborn.
With a co-operative and understanding staff she made it in time to go to the hospital he was in. She felt it was a race against time.
“I knew what was going to happen and I wanted him to know that it was ok… I told him it’s ok, don’t hurt yourself anymore.”, Nicola said.
Nicola gently placed the little baby Arya on Brett because it could be the first and the final moment the father would be able to meet the little angel. After spending a few hours together, he breathed his last knowing he was with her. She was born at 5:07am and three hours later, he passed away at 8:25am.
His older two daughters think that their dad who they address as “superhero handsome prince” sends them feathers letting them know he is looking after them.
