" Abdo "
How do I describe Abdo ?
A cherished husband, a loving devoted father, a dedicated son, a perfect brother and a fun & caring uncle and a phenomenal soccer player. There are no words I can say to truly let you know what a amazing human being he was. Anyone who has ever met Abdo would tell you that he left a lasting impression and a mark on their lives in a very significant way. He was a rare jewel...a warm hearted genuine soul...to know him, was to love him!
Abdo was born in Alexandria, Egypt on February 24th, 1967. Because of economic reasons he decieded to leave Egypt in March of 1992. He moved to the United States because he believed he could make a better future for himself here. We met on February 19th, 1993 at an Italian Restaurant where he was employed. I was quickly drawn to his good looks and charming personality.
After several months of brief encounters at the restaurant, we finally got together on May 22nd, 1993. I thank god for that day, because it was that day that marked the beginning of the happiest years of my life. We were married on April 5th, 1995. We decieded to have children a couple of years later and after a surgical procedure for me on September 27th, 1997, I was advised to start trying to become pregnant.
After twelve long months of trying...I finally became pregnant. On December 23rd, 1999, we were blessed with a beautiful baby boy named Adam. I believe this was the happiest day of Abdo's life. He always said that Adam was his first happiness. Then again on September 26th, 2001 we were blessed with another baby boy...named Zachary. Again, Abdo was over the moon...with happiness. We now have two little boys but Abdo was still determined to have a girl, he joked to me that we wouldn't stop having babies until we got a pink one.
It was only two months after Zach was born when Abdo had his first heart attack. The date was Nov.7th, 2001. He was rushed to the hospital for chest pain and it was confirmed that he had suffered a heart attack. He had three blockages in his arteries. The physicians repaired them and inserted metal stints...otherwise known as angioplasty.
Time passed and we figured Abdo would be alright. Why wouldn't he be...he was only 34 years old at this time. At least thats what we thought. Until he had a second heart attack in May of 2004. They found four more blockages, and again said his best option would be angioplasty. This time they inserted drug coated stints. Abdo was told he had aggressive heart disease of a seventy year old man.
At this point we couldn't understand why the doctors didn't do the open heart surgery. They just kept telling him that they thought angioplasty was his best option considering his young age. In our ignorance, we accepted that.
Another year passed and on June 1st, 2005 we got some more unexpected news that would totally shock us. We found out I was pregnant again. I think we were in a state of shock...followed by confusion and happiness all rolled into one big package. The condition of Abdo's health wouldn't let us experience the total happiness & excitement that we deserved.
I think in Abdo's heart he knew he would never live to see his children grow up. But I don't think it crossed his mind that he would die before he ever saw his child born.
On June 25th, 2005... twenty five days after learning that he was going to be a daddy again, Abdo had another heart attack. This one took him away from us forever.
Little Yasmine Abdelhadi was born January 20th, 2006,
( He finally made a pink one ! )

LIPSTICK... part 1
Habibi Abdo,
I just want to tell you how proud you would be of your three little ones ! Zachie has really tickled a funny bone in me lately. Suddenly, he is mesmerized with ladies who wear lipstick. We were in the car the other day and I had on my lipstick and lipgloss, and we were talking when all of a sudden he stopped talking and just sorta stared at me with a big smile on his face. I continued to talk, and he just kept smiling at me and staring at my lips. Finally I asked him " Zachie, why do you keep smiling at me like that ", and his reply was this " Lipstick " . I just laughed ! And then, we were watching Television today, and Alicia Keyes was on singing, well she obviously had lipstick on because she caught Zachies attention ! I asked him " Do you like that song Zach, and his reply was " yes...and she has pink lips ". He is sooo funny and he reminds me so much of you ! Everybody who sees Adam and Zach tell me they are going to be hearttrobs and ladykillers ! They definently inherited their good looks from you. Your little Yasmine is a real beauty too ! I would give anything...anything in the world, if i could bring you back to see her just one time ! If only you could of held her just once and whispered in her ear how much " daddy loves her "! she was cheated...she will never have a daddy...not even one single memory will she have ! Adam and Zach only had three and five years, but there were so many memories packed in that little amount of time ! When I look at our children I have such a deep sadness for them...they will go through their entire lives without you and I know that eventually because they were so young when you went away, their memories will fade and that is even more heartbreaking ! I constantly remind them of things you use to do together in hopes that I can keep the memories alive. But...I've noticed in little Zachie that his memories are quickly fading away.
Continuation from LIPSTICK
A couple of days ago when I picked Adam up at school, when he got into the car, he looked really depressed and I asked him what was the matter ! He tried to cover it up by saying he had a stomach ache, but then the sickness turned into tears and I kept asking him what was wrong ! He told me " Today... all the daddys came to school to eat lunch with their children...Mama, I was the only one who sat alone ". He then asked me " Why do all the other kids have their daddy, but not me, what did I do to make god take my daddy away ! Of course by then, I was balling my eyes out, the pain so deep in my stomach I thought I was going to die, let alone see the road through my tears ! What do I say to him...I didn't even know how to respond to him ! Instead, my pain turned to anger and I blamed the school, asking myself why do they even have those damn affairs...some children do not have fathers, and the ones who do can eat lunch with them any day of the week some place else...why do they have to bring it to school ! But...I know I was wrong for feeling that way ! It's just hard and life seems so unfair ! I can only try and that is a big TRY...to go on and help my children get through this the best I can ! Not sure if I'm doing a very good job of it ! The one thing that I can always depend on with great certainty is this..." Everyday...I will feel this huge hole...this black hole that exsist in my life now , and there is no escaping it "...it's always going to be there because I will never get over losing you ! I miss you Abdo and I love you more than I can say ! Please...if there is any possible way...please give me a sign that you are watching over us...that you are watching over your children and protecting them. And please give me another dream visit...I live for just one glimpse of you...even if it is only a DREAM !!!
