Two weeks ago, I encouraged my nephew to write a letter to Santa Claus. His very first time to write one, since he now knows how to write well and spell correctly. I was surprised to see two letters which he inserted in the leaves of our Christmas tree at home. A very simple wish. To get a toy car and bakugans (boys his age are going crazy over bakugans). I captured a picture of his letter to Santa and I'm sharing it here.
Last Sunday, my nephew was rushed to the hospital because of difficulty in breathing. He has asthma and my sister has been nebulizing him at home but perhaps his lungs can no longer handle it. He was diagnosed with bronchopneumonia on both lungs. As of today, December 23, 2008, the doctor cannot assure us that my nephew will be discharged from the hospital. Oh boy! This means we will be spending Christmas at the hospital? :(
As a kid I have always believed in Santa Claus. We would hang socks on the eve of Christmas and wake up to seeing our socks filled with presents.
Now that I am all grown up, I no longer practice hanging those socks nor waiting for Santa to come over and give me some gifts. But this year, I have the urge to ask Santa a favor for my nephew. Please pray for my nephew that he gets well really soon. It's Christmas and I would have really loved it if the family could spend it outside of the hospital.
