Countless wires are attached to multiple points on her body, triggering bleeps and lines all over screens around the room. I was here, watching my beautiful girl, dead, but I’m not really here. I'm somewhere else, my soul already in heaven with hers, because it was as good as dead anyway. Beside me, in a small plastic crib, lay my tiny premature son. He should be in the baby ICU, but they brought him here, so I could be with both of them. They had managed to get him out of her before her body completely shut down, but he is so weak and frail, all one and a half pound of him. He is also, like his beautiful mother, attached to countless machines, unable to breathe on his own. They say its very touch and go with him, the truth of the matter being, I might also lose him. My world is upside down on its head, my heart non-existent, my body shutting down itself. I don't want to be here, I don't want to live anymore. I just wish I had stayed at home, not rushed out to get to Ant’s earlier.
