What could make a doctor collapse after discovering who his pregnant patient was? It should be a regular occurrence and he shouldn’t be bothered, isn’t it? But here is a unique story that you haven’t heard of before. This is the story of Lysandre and Crystal.
You know the situation when a parent has had such a distinguished career in a profession and the kid just sees a need to follow in the father’s footsteps? That’s how Lysandre chose what he studied in college. His dad was an exceptional doctor who achieved enviable heights in his profession. He was well known for helping people who couldn’t handle their hospital bills. But this family wasn’t always financially buoyant; they went through some tough times in the past.
Lysandre’s parents got married at a young age. They were both high school lovers whose relationship was the envy of the whole school. Many students thought their relationship would not survive, but they proved them all wrong. At the age of 20, Lysandre’s mom, Sandra, became pregnant. This was at the time when his parents had just gained college admission. Sandra was struggling with juggling her job and having a baby, and their financial difficulties only made things tougher for this young family. The father, Martin, had not started working as a doctor, and the family was struggling. But while his family struggled to make ends meet, Martin never stopped helping people whenever he could.
It was one of those kind endeavors that propelled him to financial liberation. A bunch of high school students were returning home after a wild night out. They were all drunk and should not have been driving. The students were involved in a ghastly accident that saw all of them sustain various injuries. While four of the teenagers had bruises that didn’t require serious treatment, one girl was badly injured and needed to be operated on immediately. It was Martin who went the extra mile to ensure that she got everything she needed, which was what saved her life. What this kind doctor didn’t know was that the girl was from a very rich and powerful family.
The girl’s name is Ayanna. She suffered severe trauma to her head and barely survived. Ayanna is the daughter of a Russian oil magnate, the ones who are known as oligarchs. After the girl’s family heard about what Martin had done for their daughter, they rewarded him abundantly.
The Russian billionaire provided the funds for Martin to build a hospital and also get the best equipment money could buy. This was how Martin’s family built their wealth. The hospital was successful, and it was ranked as the top medical center not only in their state but in the region. It was also recognized as one of the best in the country. Lysandre’s father also won numerous awards for the brilliant job he did. Now that they were rich, he could put his children in the best schools he was able to afford.
Lysandre played football while he was in school, and he was quite popular and loved. He was not their best player, but he was good enough to make the team. After high school, Lysandre had his pick of the best schools, not because of his family’s influence but because he was a very intelligent student. After he got admission into college, the young man continued on his path of academic excellence.
One day, while going to class, a lady who was rushing to class ran into him and knocked their books off both hands. He helped her pick up her books and couldn’t help but notice how beautiful she was. The medical student was stunned by her beauty. However, she was in a hurry; he could sense that she didn’t want to have a conversation, and trying to get her number would have been futile. Still, for the entire day, he blamed himself for not at least making a move. He wondered if he would ever see her again. But what if that was the only time he would ever see her face?
Lysandre made a conscious effort to always use the same route he met her, hoping he would come across her again and get her number. For over a month, he used the same route, but he never met the lady again. He had almost given up on ever meeting the girl when, on Saturday, he got a chance to see her again. This time, she was in a car with another man. Lysandre was worried. He was very happy to see her again, but was she in a relationship? Not long after, she came out of the car, and the guy who was driving stepped out as well, and they both walked into a restaurant. The medical student thought to himself that, the way they were sharing jokes, they must be in love.
He got his chance to talk to the girl when the guy left the table for a few minutes. She remembered him immediately and apologized for running into him. Her name was Crystal, and she didn’t hesitate in giving him her number. Crystal is a student studying education. She always wanted to be a teacher because she believes it is the best way to serve the community. Unlike Lysandre, she comes from a modest family. She has four siblings, and she was the only girl. Her family has not always been able to afford a luxurious lifestyle, but they have always been comfortable.
Crystal and Lysandre became friends, and for a while, that’s all they were. They got along so well and spent most of their time doing things together. She admired him for his goals and personality. The young doctor wanted to be more than friends, but he was scared of rejection, so he never shared his feelings with her. This education student never had that problem. She made the first move by kissing him, after which they started dating.
In their final year of college, Lysandre proposed. Of course, she said yes. Things were going well for the young couple, and they both got along very well with each other’s families, so much so that one of Crystal’s brother’s kids was left with him because Lysandre was good with children. So why didn’t they have their own? Well, they had been trying very hard for a couple of years, even before they got married.
Their parents tried to make babies, but it just never happened. Crystal was never pregnant. The couple visited a specialist and had various fertility tests. The test results proved the problem was with Lysandre. He had a low sperm count, and the doctor prescribed several drugs for him. However, two years later, nothing had changed.
Lysandre was depressed. He had a faithful wife who never stopped loving him, but he felt inadequate for not being able to have a baby with her. One night, he told Crystal that if she wanted a divorce, he wouldn’t hold it against her because it was his body that was the problem.
But rather than leave him, she suggested they adopt a child. Not long after they started considering adoption, the teacher was feeling unwell. She was always feeling nauseous, and she realized she hadn’t seen her period for like two months. However, she did not tell her husband because she didn’t want to give him false hope. Instead, she took a pregnancy test, which confirmed her suspicions. She was pregnant! Isn’t that amazing?
But rather than tell Lysandre, she wanted to give him a surprise that would be worthy of the news, and she had a unique plan to make it happen. This plan involved her husband’s clinic staff members. She met with them and shared her plans with them. They were thrilled that she was pregnant, and they were all happy to play their role in making her plan happen.
“When I told his nurses that I was pregnant, they were very happy,” Crystal said. “One of the nurses, especially Isabelle, who I’m very close to, we had become good friends. We cried together when I told her because she knows how much we wanted this and that it was affecting our marriage.”
So what was Crystal’s plan?
Lysandre had had a stressful day in the office when he was told there was a woman in discomfort who had just been rushed to the hospital. This was in the early stages of her pregnancy, and her stomach had not started to show. They explained how the woman was feeling and asked him to conduct a pregnancy test for her. When it was time to tell the woman what the results were, he walked into the room and realized that it was his wife. His wife was the pregnant woman.
Lysandre collapsed out of shock. After he was revived, he held onto his wife’s belly and couldn’t stop crying. He thought he had woken up from a dream. Lysandre was finally going to be a father, and the thought of it filled him with so much joy. Seven months later, Crystal gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. The couple enjoyed being parents, and a few years later, they got lucky again and welcomed another son.
Becoming a parent is probably one of life’s greatest moments for people who wish to have a family, and there’s no doubt about it that children are a blessing who bring extreme happiness.
