I nā kekona mua ma hope o ka hānau ʻana, hana nui ke keiki i nā mea leʻaleʻa. ʻO ka hanu mua, ʻo ka uē mua, ʻo ka pā mua, nā neʻe mua ʻole i hoʻopaʻa ʻia, ka ʻapo mua me koʻu makuahine. Eia ka mea hope loa, ʻo ia paha ka mea hoʻopā loa. Ma hope o nā mea āpau, he mea kupaianaha loa kēia - ka pilina o ka makuahine me kahi mea nani āna i lawe ai no ka manawa lōʻihi ma lalo o kona puʻuwai a lawe mai i ka honua.
… Ua hānau ʻo Brenda Coelho de Souze i kāna keiki mua. Pono ʻo ia e hana i kahi cesarean, akā noʻonoʻo koʻu makuahine i nā manawa āpau. I ka hānau ʻana o ka pēpē a Brenda, kau ʻia ʻo ia ma ka umauma o kona makuahine - nā mea āpau e hoʻokumu i ka pilina kūwaha i waena o lākou. ʻO nā naʻau i hōʻike ʻia i ka maka o Brenda i kona ʻike mua ʻana i kāna kaikamahine - e hoʻomaopopo a hoʻomanaʻo kekahi makuahine iā lākou. Akā ʻo ka mea i makemake nui ʻia ai kēia wikiō ʻo ka hana a Agatha, kahi pēpē hānau hou.
ʻO ka pēpē, me ka ʻole o ka hāmama ʻana o kona mau maka, ʻapo maila i ka maka o kona makuahine. A laila ... ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia e honi iā ia! ʻOiai ʻo nā kauka, ka poʻe i ʻike i kēia manawa i ʻoi aku ma mua o hoʻokahi a ʻelua paha manawa, ua pūʻiwa: ʻo ka pēpē, ka mea i makaʻu a uē wale, hoʻomaha koke a hoʻonā i ka ʻapo mua me kona makuahine.
"He manawa kupaianaha ia i ka wā a Agatha i apo mai ai iaʻu no ka manawa mua. Pīhoihoi nui nā kauka, ʻaʻole hiki iā lākou ke hilinaʻi i ka hana a kaʻu kaikamahine - ʻaʻole lākou i ʻike i kahi pēpē aloha nui, "i ʻōlelo ʻo Brenda ma hope.
I kēia manawa ʻekolu mahina ʻo Agatha. A hoʻomau ʻo ia e hauʻoli i kona makuahine - i kēlā me kēia lā.
