Daniella was ill and I was too but she turned to a nurse and won’t let me be:

Daniella: mom, I will help you to get up and go to the bathroom OK?

Mom: I didn’t tell you I wanted to use the bathroom. You were fast asleep.

Daniella: I was awake ooo. I stayed calm when I woke up so I could see if you’re good.

Mom: oh dear! Busky, you’re awake for me? I am struggling to get up, I will be able to do it OK?

Daniella: I am here to help you. God sent me to this house to help you OK? My sister and brother are not here and Aunty Joy is sleeping downstairs. Daniella is a nurse and your child. 

Mom: but you’re ill too. I am concerned about this fever on you that’s persisting

Daniella: mom, what’s persisting? Let me check on my IPad!

Mom:??????????????

Daniella: don’t cry OK? Let’s go to the bathroom. Wait let me get tissue from the store. I am your nurse. Hahahahahah! Nurse Daniella!

Mom: (walks in to pee) it’s OK nne, go back to bed.

Daniella : noooo, you’re my patient and I will stand here. Do you want me to check your temperature? Did you check your blood sugar? Mom????? I didn’t see you test, talk to me!

Mom: I didn’t. I was too weak to get up. I will check now. 

Daniella: OK, sit here let me get the holy communion so you take. Now it’s God that will heal you. Can I get anointing oil from your altar? I don’t want to go there without your permission. I will anoint you and you take communion. That’s what Pastor Enenche does and God helps him and he will help us too.

Mom: Daniella, I can’t believe we are having this conversation. Almost nine years ago, you had no chance as stated by man, you were to be dependent on me and today I am the one being dependent on you.??????????????????.

Daniella: ehhhhhh! She’s crying ooooo. OK, stop OK? Let me pray for you. Don’t kneel down oooo, God knows you’re sick. Just raise your two hands and close your eyes…
