《Christmas Wish (Completed)》Chapter 22
Advertisement
Nicolas fell asleep with the largest smile on his face last night and still will not say what his Christmas wish is. I even gave him paper and a pen to write what he wants from Santa and he just giggled at me with saying he had to think on that one.
This morning I woke up and got back to finishing up the order online. So far I have Nicolas an assortment of toys and things he may enjoy. That is the one thing about gifts is trying to find the right ones that fit to what they would like. Nicolas seems to like or he did prior to getting sick with building crafts.
So there is a few different lego pieces I got him, along with a box set of all different things in it to where he can build and create all types of things. Along with a game board of his favorite scooby doo with hunting down the clues to finish it on his game system at home. Then there is other odds and ends that I think he would enjoy doing and playing with as well for the smaller gifts.
I have ordered Tony a tablet to where once he takes photographs they can be showing him his work with easy access. Something I have done for awhile now and he has been on the fence about it for years. It honestly helps with editing by seeing what shots you have before letting the customers leave.
There is just one person left to buy for and I am stumped. I stare at the screen and am completely feeling lost because there is so many different options to buy but I want it to be special.
Knocking sounds from the door and Jewels walks in.
"Good morning. How has he been this morning?"

"Pretty good, he was up late being excited." I smile over to where he is sleeping still, but it is early since Jewels is doing her normal checks after she clocks in.
"Well, I am going to let him rest more. Holly will be in shortly after she goes through her rounds." Jewels smiles and walks to the door opening it slightly.
"Hey Jewels, I do have something to ask you." I call out lightly.
She closes the door and spins to face me.
"I want to get Holly something for Christmas but I am not sure what would be a good gift. I know that most doctors won't accept things from patients other than a card or small basket type things, but that doesn't feel right. I really like her Jewels." I whisper the last part.
"I know you do. It is easy to see it in both of your eyes honestly." She smiles and sits on the couch next to me.
She inhales and looks deep in thought.
"It may be corny and not much to you, but most of the time intern doctors will get a new stethoscope when they do their boards and use it after they pass them. It is just something most tend to do and the ones they will buy or have gifted to them are of some importance to them."
"Where could I buy one from? I know there has to be good ones and bad ones, so any guidance on that would be great."
"Here ya go." Jewels writes out something on a piece of paper she carries in her pocket and tears it off handing it to me.
"That is the website we use for ordering and their products have never let me down. Plus, I was going to buy her one but with you needing help finding a gift and wanting it to be meaningful to her then I will let you do it and I'll go after work and find something. Just let me know if you get it or not." Jewels smiles and pats my hand in a friendly manner.

"Thank you so much Jewels."
"Don't mention it." She waves and leaves the room.
Bring the website up, I look through all the options they have available. There is a few that are very nice.
"Morning Daddy. What are you doing?" Nicolas sits up.
"Looking at gifts for Holly would you like to help?" I hold my computer and he moves over so I can sit on the bed.
"That one looks pretty." Nicolas points out the one I have been eyeing.
It is a top of the line stethoscope and the tubing is a light blue coloration with the tiniest snowflakes on it for a design. To me that matches Holly perfectly. Also is a symbol for the two of us also since our first kiss it started snowing on us.
I order the stethoscope and Nicolas watches closely.
"Are you ready to get your morning things done?" I ask him, putting my laptop down.
He nods and I help him get up and roll his IV pole along with us. Once he is finishing up, he looks up at me and seems nervous.
"What is it buddy?'
"There is something I would like to get Holly but I don't know if you would say yes."
I help him back on the bed and sit with him.
"What is that?"
"I want to find her a necklace. She has never had one on and I don't know if she has one."
"We can look." I smile and pick up the computer again.
Nicolas and I browse over the different necklaces and come across one that is calling me to get for her.
"Daddy that one." Nicolas points to the same one I am looking at.
I pull it up and not even caring to look at the price.
"That is the one. It has a heart for me and you. What is that word right there?" Nicolas points to the screen.
"Engravement options. Is what that reads. So we can have them write something onto the back of this necklace that won't come off." I explain.
Nicolas smiles up to me. "So we can put love J and N. Make it short because it is going to be a small necklace, but having love from both of us."
"I love that idea. Let's do it buddy." I smile at him.
We go over and right as I click order and it gives me the order number confirmation, Holly walks in.
Nicolas is quick to close my computer thankfully because when I see her everything goes out other than when he moves or says something.
"Good morning, you two." She smiles.
"Morning." Nicolas and I answer together, although his voice is higher pitch as well as mine.
"Okay? What are you two up too?" She smirks and looks us over.

A loving spouse. A healer. How does this person cope with evil villains willing to destroy everything? They convicted the victim... now how does the victim goes on with life as a healer?As the book opens, I was in a psychiatric hospital following a suicide attempt in December 2019. What starts as a simple conversation with another patient changed my life. Most of the rest of the book tells the reader how I got to this point. I experienced profound injustice between 2004 and 2006. By opening with a story about suicide, I want the reader to understand that the injustice was not just something that happened long ago.This book is an account of all the accomplishments and successes that I had in overcoming tremendous odds and challenges. Growing up, I was paralyzed by shyness and lacked social skills, and so the idea of becoming a psychotherapist never occurred to me when I went off to college. I learned that I could overcome those limitations. I wanted to bring that hope and healing to others. Activities like that make life meaningful and bring me joy. The reasons why I was suicidal in 2019 were set in motion in 2000 when a meteor would come crashing down upon the life that I had built leaving me powerless to do anything other than watching everything burn to ashes - the home that I had, the life I had known, the love I had, my career, everything would disappear almost as if it never existed. In that one the year 2000, I could not imagine things could get any worse. But the nightmare would continue for the next few years... culminating in a suicide attempt in 2019. Now, I am connecting with others, building relationships, and finding a reason to live again. I am writing my own story of my life. I will fight against the injustice of the past and offer my gifts to the world. I have so much to offer. I have quite a story to tell. I hope you will help me to move on with my life.
