Mulher de 53 anos dá à luz gêmeos, genro nota marcas de nascença familiares neles — História do dia

Uma mulher engravida aos 53 anos e dá à luz gêmeos prematuramente. Mas as coisas tomam um rumo bizarro quando seu genro chega ao hospital e percebe a mesma marca de nascença nos ombros dos bebês que a dele.

Quando Barbara Anderson, de 53 anos, fez o teste de gravidez e ele mostrou duas linhas, ela não conseguia acreditar no que via! Sim, ela estava esperando um filho! O ganho repentino de peso e as mudanças de humor não foram coincidência, mas já era tarde demais quando Barabara percebeu.

“Você ouve os batimentos cardíacos, Sra. Anderson?”, perguntou o Dr. Carter quando ela visitou o hospital.

Barbara ficou surpresa. “Batimentos cardíacos?”

“Sim, Sra. Anderson. Você não sabe que está grávida de gêmeos?”

Barbara congelou em choque quando o Dr. Carter disse isso.

Ser mãe é uma das experiências mais lindas que uma mulher pode ter, mas foi um choque para Barbara porque, na sua idade, ela já era mãe e, sem falar, avó de duas lindas meninas.

“Podemos, por favor, interromper a gravidez, doutor?” Barbara perguntou, preocupada. “Não quero prosseguir com isso.”

O médico lançou-lhe um olhar decepcionado. “Sinto muito, Sra. Anderson, mas temo que seja tarde demais. Vejo algumas inconsistências em seu relatório e acredito que teremos que interná-la no hospital por um tempo. Tenho a sensação de que você terá um parto prematuro.”

“Por favor, doutor”, Barbara implorou, com os olhos marejados. “Não há mais nada que eu possa fazer para evitar essa gravidez? Acho que não estou preparada para isso.”

“Sinto muito, Sra. Anderson, mas temo não poder ajudá-la. Como eu disse anteriormente, seus relatórios não são normais. E se fizermos o aborto, você estará colocando sua vida em perigo.”

Barbara ficou arrasada. Ela estava com medo do que aconteceria quando sua filha descobrisse que estava grávida, mas mais do que isso, ela temia como criaria as crianças sozinha. No entanto, ela sabia que não conseguiria esconder a gravidez por muito tempo. Então ela ligou para Melanie naquele dia e contou tudo a ela.

“Oh, mãe, vamos lá!” Melanie caiu na gargalhada na ligação. “Você não deveria estar fazendo essas piadas nessa idade!”

“Estou falando sério, querida!” Barbara expressou sua decepção. “Você poderia, por favor, checar seu telefone?”

Melanie sabia que sua mãe estava saindo com um homem chamado Jackson, que já foi colega de classe dela. Eles estudaram no mesmo colégio e na mesma universidade e se conheceram no Facebook. Ele até convidou Barbara para sair, e eles saíram algumas vezes.

No entanto, Melanie não acreditou que sua mãe estava falando sério até que ela olhou para sua mensagem e leu os relatórios do ultrassom. Isso provou que ela estava realmente grávida e que ela não estava mentindo.

Melanie ficou surpresa. “Meu Deus, mãe! Isso é inacreditável! Mas, o que você achou disso?”

“Eu realmente não queria continuar com isso, querida”, Barbara gemeu. “Mas eu não tenho escolha. Os médicos disseram que o aborto é muito arriscado, então eu tenho que ir em frente com isso.”

“Não se preocupe, mãe”, Melanie a tranquilizou. “Se Deus a colocou nessa posição, ele também a guiará. Eu sempre estarei lá para você.”

Barbara ficou em lágrimas quando sua filha disse isso. “Mas querida, você não quer saber….”

Antes que Barbara pudesse terminar, Melanie a interrompeu. “Não preciso saber de mais nada, mãe. Só não se estresse com nada. Ok?”

“Mas e quanto a Josh e os outros? Eles vão me julgar por estar grávida nessa idade, e então essas pobres crianças terão que enfrentar a sociedade. Estou realmente preocupada, querida.”

“Por que você se importa com o que os outros pensam, mãe? Você sabe como as pessoas são. Elas vão falar de você hoje, mas não vão se lembrar de você amanhã. No que diz respeito a Josh, ele é muito compreensivo. Não se preocupe, eu vou falar com ele.”

“Tudo bem, querida. Obrigada”, Barbara disse e desligou. Mas ela ainda estava preocupada com o que aconteceria se a verdade fosse revelada.

Melanie, como uma filha responsável, visitou e cuidou de sua mãe desde o momento em que descobriu que estava grávida. Josh, o marido de Melanie, foi igualmente solidário e a acompanhou ao hospital nos fins de semana para cuidar de sua sogra. Mas todo esse amor e apoio desapareceram no dia em que os gêmeos nasceram.

Quando a enfermeira trouxe os bebês, Melanie e Josh imediatamente notaram as marcas de nascença nos ombros dos bebês. Melanie ficou chocada, para dizer o mínimo, e Josh não conseguia acreditar no que via!

“A marca de nascença… Como isso é possível? Não acredito que você fez isso comigo, Josh!” Melanie gritou. “Você me traiu e com minha mãe?”

“O quê? Você está louca, Melanie? Não existe nada disso!” Josh explicou.

“Não minta para mim, Josh! Olhe para essas marcas de nascença! Não acredito nisso! E mamãe, nem ela me contou!”

Josh estava sem palavras neste momento. Ele também notou as marcas de nascença, mas ele não era o pai dos gêmeos de Barbara. “Escute, Melanie, por favor, acalme-se. Não é o que você pensa…”

“Não quero ouvir você, Josh!” Melanie retrucou. “Preciso falar com a mamãe agora mesmo!” A mulher disse enquanto corria para a enfermaria de Barbara.

Barbara, que tinha acabado de acordar após o parto, ficou chocada ao ver o rosto da filha vermelho, com lágrimas escorrendo pelas bochechas. “Querida, você está bem?”, ela perguntou, preocupada.

“Tudo bem? Sério, mãe?” Melanie estava furiosa. “Eu não acredito que Josh e você… Isso é nojento, mãe. Quando vocês dois começaram a se encontrar pelas minhas costas? Não minta, eu vi as marcas de nascença nos ombros dos bebês. Josh tem a mesma marca de nascença!”

“Querida, por favor, acalme-se”, disse Barbara.

“Como posso me acalmar, mãe?” Melanie começou a chorar mais uma vez. “Eu te apoiei durante toda a sua gravidez, mãe! Eu estava com medo de que Josh não me apoiasse nisso, mas ele apoiou. E eu fiquei surpresa quando ele fez isso. Ele estava agindo assim porque era o pai? Além disso, você disse que queria me contar algo sobre a gravidez quando me ligou naquele dia, mas eu te interrompi. EU VOU ME DIVORCIAR DAQUELE HOMEM! EU NÃO QUERO VER A CARA DELE!”

Josh, que tinha acabado de chegar depois de Melanie, tentou consolá-la, mas a jovem o empurrou e disse que não queria ouvir nada.

Barbara não conseguiu segurar as lágrimas quando viu a filha naquele estado. Ela chamou Melanie para o seu lado e pegou a mão dela na dela. “Josh, você vem aqui também. Tem algo que vocês dois precisam saber…” A senhora mais velha começou e narrou a história inteira.

Acontece que o pai dos gêmeos de Barbara era o pai de Josh, o Sr. Andrew Wilson. Alguns meses atrás, todos eles se reuniram no rancho de Andrew, onde Barbara e Andrew ficaram bêbados e um pouco românticos.

Barbara tinha medo de admitir a verdade, mas ainda mais de sua filha perder sua família. Como resultado, ela guardou a verdade para si mesma e nunca a revelou.

“O pai de Josh também tem a mesma marca de nascença, querida”, Barbara acrescentou. “Se você não acredita em mim, pergunte ao Josh.”

Melanie olhou para Josh, que assentiu em concordância. “Ela está certa, Mel. Meu pai e meu avô compartilham a mesma marca de nascença.”

“Acho que eu deveria ter contado tudo a vocês antes. Sinto muito”, Barbara começou a chorar.

Depois de ouvir toda a história de sua mãe, Melanie percebeu que estava errada em tirar conclusões precipitadas e pediu desculpas a Barbara e Josh. “Sinto muito por todo o caos que criei. Eu deveria ter dado a vocês uma chance de se explicarem. Mas mãe”, ela disse, virando-se para Barbara. “Acho que você deveria contar ao Sr. Wilson sobre isso.”

“Sim, Sra. Anderson”, Josh acrescentou. “Papai tem o direito de saber o que aconteceu. Além disso, as crianças também são responsabilidade dele. Acho que você deveria contar a ele.”

Barbara não tinha certeza sobre isso, mas ligou para Andrew e contou tudo. Ele ficou surpreso com a notícia, mas decidiu assumir a responsabilidade pelas crianças. Poucas horas depois da ligação, ele fez uma visita a Barbara no hospital com um buquê e a pediu em casamento de joelhos da maneira mais romântica.

A senhora mais velha corou e assentiu que sim. Poucos meses depois, os dois se casaram em uma igreja em uma cerimônia familiar íntima, e agora são uma grande família feliz.

O que podemos aprender com essa história?

  • Não tire conclusões precipitadas. Se Melanie tivesse sido um pouco paciente e escutado Josh e sua mãe, ela não teria criado o caos.
  • Não fuja de suas responsabilidades. O Sr. Wilson não fugiu de suas responsabilidades e concordou em cuidar dos gêmeos.

My Sister and Her Family Moved Into My House Without My Permission — Karma Hit Them Hard the Same Day

Phoebe thought her day couldn’t get worse when she found her sister and her family settling into her home without asking. But just as hope seemed lost, an unexpected knock at the door set in motion a delicious serving of instant karma.

I was always close to my sister while growing up, but things changed after she got married. What happened between us a few days ago was something I’ll never forget.

I’m Phoebe, 31, and I own a modest three-bedroom house. It’s nothing fancy, but it’s mine, and I’m damn proud of it.

I’ve been paying it off for ten years now, working day and night to make those mortgage payments.

I won’t deny that I sometimes envy my friends living in their fancy apartments downtown, but then I remember that this place is mine. No landlord breathing down my neck, and no roommates leaving dirty dishes in the sink. Just me and my space.

Now, let me introduce you to my sister, Holly.

She’s 38, a mother of two, and married to her high school sweetheart, Nicholas. We used to be close when we were younger, but things changed when she got married. She started focusing more on her new life, and I never blamed her. I believe she did what she thought was best for her.

We drifted apart, but we were still on good terms. Or so I thought.

Holly and Nicholas have always been the free-spirited types. They’re one of those people who’re always talking about “quitting the rat race” and “living life to the fullest.”

It used to drive me nuts when we’d get together for family dinners.

“Life’s too short to be stuck in a cubicle, Phoebe,” Holly would say, sipping her wine. “You should travel more, see the world!”

I’d roll my eyes.

“Some of us like having a steady paycheck and a roof over our heads, Holly.”

Nicholas would chime in, “But think of the experiences! The memories!”

Yeah, well, memories don’t pay the bills, buddy, I’d think.

I tried to tell them to be more careful with their money. They were always jetting off on last-minute trips or buying the latest gadgets, even with two young kids to think about.

But did they listen? Nope.

A few months ago, they actually did it. They sold their house during the market boom, thinking they’d use the profit to fund a year-long break to “travel the world.”

I remember the conversation like it was yesterday.

“We’re doing it, Phoebe!” Holly squealed over the phone. “We sold the house!”

“What?” I nearly choked on my coffee. “Holly, are you serious? What about the kids’ school? Your jobs?”

“Oh, we’ll homeschool them on the road. It’ll be an education in itself! And we can always find work later. This is our chance to really live!”

I tried to talk some sense into her. I was really worried.

“Holly, have you really thought this through? Travel is expensive, especially with kids. What happens when the money runs out?”

“Don’t be such a worrywart, Phoebe,” she said, brushing off the concerns. “We’ve got it all figured out. We’ll stay in hostels, maybe do some volunteering for room and board. It’ll be fine!”

It was not fine. Not at all.

At first, their social media was full of pictures from nice hotels and fancy restaurants.

“Living the dream!” they’d caption every post.

But within two months, those posts started to dwindle.

The last one I saw was a grainy shot of them camping in some field, with a caption about “embracing the simple life.”

Then, radio silence for a few weeks. I thought they were just busy enjoying their travels, unaware of what was really happening behind the scenes.

One day, I came home from work, exhausted after a long day of meetings and deadlines. All I wanted was to kick off my shoes, pour a glass of wine, and binge-watch some trashy reality TV.

But as soon as I opened my front door, I knew something was off.

There were shoes I didn’t recognize in the entryway, kid-sized backpacks on the floor, and familiar voices coming from my living room.

I walked in, and there they were.

Holly, Nicholas, and their two kids. They were unpacking suitcases and boxes in MY living room.

“Holly?” I blurted out, squinting my eyes as I looked at the mess in my living room. “What… what are you doing here?”

“Oh, hi Phoebe!” Holly chirped. “Surprise! We’re back!”

“Back?” I repeated. “In my house?”

Then, Nicholas stepped forward, smiling like this was the most normal thing in the world.

“Yeah, we decided to cut the trip short,” he said. “Turns out, full-time travel with kids is harder than we thought!”

“And Mom gave us your spare key… the one you gave her for emergencies,” Holly added. “I knew you wouldn’t mind us crashing here for a bit while we figure things out. It’ll only be for a few months.”

“A few months?” I protested. “Holly, are you serious? You can’t just move into my house without asking me!”

“But… we’re family. I thought you’d be happy to help us out.”

“Happy?” I could feel my cheeks burning with anger. “Holly, this is my house. My space. You should’ve talked to me about this!”

“Now, now, Phoebe,” Nicholas interrupted. “Let’s not get too high and mighty here. Family helps family, right? It’s not like you’re using all this space anyway.”

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. Where did this entitlement come from? Why were they acting like what they did was fine?

“You guys need to leave,” I said, crossing my arms on my chest. “Now.”

But Holly refused.

Meanwhile, Nicholas started subtly threatening me.

“Come on, Phoebe,” he began, looming over me. “Don’t make this difficult. We don’t have anywhere else to go.”

I was furious. If I called the cops, their young kids might get dragged into it, and I didn’t want that.

I needed to come up with a plan, so I headed straight to my bedroom and locked the door behind me.

At that point, I honestly felt like crying. I had no idea what to do until my phone buzzed. It was a text from my old college friend, Alex.

Hey Pheebs! In your area for work. Drinks tonight?

Alex was always the prankster in our friend group, always coming up with wild schemes. If anyone could help me out of this mess, it was him.

I quickly texted him back.

Actually, can you come over? I have a situation and could use your help. Bring your acting skills.

The doorbell rang an hour later, and I raced to answer it before Holly or Nicholas could. When I opened the door, I saw a police officer standing at my doorstep.

“Oh my God, Alex!” I looked at him with wide eyes. “You’re wearing the perfect costume!”

I quickly stepped outside and closed the door behind me.

“What happened, Pheebs?” he asked.

“I need your help getting rid of my relatives,” I told him, still fascinated by his fake police uniform. “They’ve completely taken over my house.”

I quickly explained the situation, and Alex agreed to help. Then, I opened the door and called out to Holly and Nicholas.

“Holly, Nicholas, can you come here please? There’s a police officer who needs to speak with us.”

They were smiling when they came into the hallway, but their expressions immediately changed when they saw Alex in his uniform.

“Good evening,” Alex said. “I’m Officer Johnson. We’ve received reports of a break-in at this address. Can you tell me what’s going on here?”

Nicholas looked at me, squinting his eyes. Then, he puffed up his chest and slowly walked toward Alex.

“There’s no break-in here, officer,” Nicholas said in a serious tone. “We’re family. Everything’s fine.”

“Officer, these people entered my home unlawfully,” I said. “I never gave them permission to be here.”

Alex nodded and then looked at Holly and Nicholas.

“How did you gain entry to this residence?” Alex asked.

“We, uh, we used a key,” Holly stammered. “Mom gave it to me. It was a, uh, spare key for emergencies.”

“But no one asked my permission,” I intervened. “So, technically, you broke in. Who knows what might be missing?”

“I see,” Alex said, looking around the house. “And when the homeowner asked you to leave, did you comply?”

“Now, hold on a minute,” Nicholas said, his voice trembling slightly. “We did—”

“I’m afraid I’m going to have to ask you to leave the premises immediately,” Alex cut him off, pulling out a pair of handcuffs. “Failure to do so could result in charges of breaking and entering, as well as trespassing.”

I wanted to laugh so hard watching Nicholas pretending to be a police officer. He was just amazing. His last sentence was enough to send Holly and Nicholas into a panic.

“We’re sorry…” Holly began. “We’ll pack up.”

They quickly began throwing their things into their bags.

“If you leave right now,” Alex said sternly, “I won’t file charges. But you’ll return the key and never trespass again.”

They didn’t need to be told twice. Alex and I watched in silence as they grabbed their kids and their bags and bolted out of the house.

I finally laughed once their car sped away.

“You’re a lifesaver, Alex,” I said, shaking my head in disbelief. “Coffee?”

“Sure!” he said as he walked in and closed the door behind him.

I quickly made two cups of coffee before we sat in my now-quiet living room.

“I can’t believe they just assumed they could live here,” Alex said, shaking his head.

“I know,” I sighed. “Part of me feels guilty, you know? They’re family, after all. But I just couldn’t let them freeload off me like that.”

“You did the right thing, Phoebe,” Alex reassured me. “They can’t just take advantage of you because their hare-brained scheme failed.”

“I’m so glad you messaged me at the right time, Alex,” I said, looking at my phone. “I don’t know what I’d have done without you. But why did you come dressed up like a police officer?”

“Oh, that,” Alex chuckled. “I was just messing around with friends, pulling pranks and all. I had no idea my costume would come in handy over here. What a coincidence, right?”

“Yeah,” I nodded. “What a coincidence.”

As we talked, I couldn’t help but think of the consequences of my actions. Had I done the right thing? Would this drive an irreparable wedge between me and my sister?

But then I looked around my living room. It was my space, and I had worked so hard for it. I thought about all the long hours and the sacrifices I’d made to buy a house and realized I couldn’t let Holly and Nicholas just take over everything.

I also realized it was okay to put myself first. It was okay to stand up for myself and not let people walk all over me.

What would you have done if you were in my shoes?
