Mercy James
Mercy, a single parent, who named the child Miracle while speaking of her ordeal during the 14 years of her pregnancy said: “When
I first took in, I knew that I was pregnant with signs and test that
confirmed that I was. Four months later, I went to hospital for another
test, the result showed that I wasn’t pregnant, but had fibroid.
Subsequently,
I began to experience bleeding, at least once a day. Sometimes, my
tummy would protrude in the semblance of pregnancy. I went to different
hospitals, and I kept on receiving the same result that nothing was
wrong with me. But deep down inside , I knew that all was not well with
me.
“So I was taken aback when a midwife told me I was
pregnant. But considering the test which showed I had fibroid, I was
angry with the midwife for giving me what I felt was a false prophecy of
hope. Thereafter, I started going from one church to another and from
one native doctor to the other. The results that I got from them all
remained the same. I became more feeble and confused that I prayed for
death to come. Cut....
“I went again to the midwife two years
after and complained to her about the pains that I was going through,
she told me again that it was not fibroid but pregnancy; she advised me
to be more prayerful so that God will deliver me from the hands of the
devil. I kept on praying and at the same time asking myself that if
truly I’m pregnant, why is it that the baby was not kicking?
“I
bought many concoctions that they said could cure fibroid and drank
them. I even drank 12 bottles of a local cleanser but to no avail. This
went on for years. Then God took pity on me and decided to wipe my
tears.
On the day I gave birth to my baby girl, I
initially thought that worms were trying to come out of my body not
knowing that it was a baby. This was what I told the midwife when we
came to her. But after examining me she told me to push.
I
ignored her. I became unconscious for about 15 minutes and when I
regained consciousness, I heard the cry of a baby. I was surprised and
confused seeing my baby. I couldn’t believe my eyes. Hmm,I thank God for
my life and that of my baby Miracle. I named her Miracle because she is
truly a miraculous child”.
Meanwhile
the midwife simply identified as Mrs Ajetima at the Celestial Church of
Christ, Kadoso Parish, Ajegunle who was responsible for the delivery
said: “She was pregnant for 14 years and was unable to give birth
during this period. Then on Saturday around 6:30am I saw two persons
carrying her to this place. When she came inside, I laid her down and
asked one of my daughters to examine her, after the examination, I found
out that it was a baby that was about coming out and not worms. I asked
her to push and she refused. My daughter gave her a hard slap on her
laps since she refused to push.
Behold a baby with
placenta came out! I started shouting, calling on people to come and see
for themselves that Mercy was truly pregnant, because if not, people
will start to say that that Celestial woman has given Mercy a baby.
Within a twinkle of an eye, the whole place was filled with people. God
is wonderful”.
Mercy’s closest friend, Odunayo Odeyemi also confirmed the development saying: “I
have known mercy for over nine years now. I met her with the pregnancy .
In fact, she did not know that she was pregnant. I followed her to many
places but her problems kept on increasing. Merely looking at Mercy
then before she gave birth, you will notice that she wasn’t okay. I kept
advising her to have faith in God because I had experienced the same
thing. I was pregnant for three years and three months and God delivered
me.
“Mercy came to me on that fateful day around 4am
begging me to give her a pain reliever, that she was having pains all
over her body. I dressed up and took her to a man that sells drugs.
After taking the drug, on our way home, she started having serious
pains. I called her brother and we both took her to the midwife. Hours
later, she gave birth to a bouncing baby girl. We all were surprised
because we never expected such a miracle to happen. She had a complete
baby.”
Robert Davidson, one of Mercy’s friends, said that he
concluded after seeing Mercy with a protruded tummy for three years that
she had fibroid. So, “it came to me as a shock to learn that she
delivered a bouncing baby girl.”
A neighbour, Chidinma also said: “She
always complained to me that she had stomach pains all these period.
She told me that she had fibroid and sometime, she will complain of
different things. She was totally confused as to what her condition was.
I’m very much surprised and happy she gave birth to a complete baby
girl. It was truly a miracle. God was on her side. God is wonderful
because all the concoctions she took were enough to kill the baby.”
Speaking about the father of the baby, Mercy said: “Friday
is the name of my baby’s father. Actually, we are not married. He just
proposed to me and I became pregnant for him. He knew about the
pregnancy. He always gave me money for tests and scans but he got tired
and left me after waiting for me for over a year without seeing any sign
of a baby. I have no option than to go my own way,” she informed.
