It's scary in here. Mama can't hear me but I can hear her crying and saying she's sorry. I don't want her to be sad or sorry. She hasn't even done anything wrong. It's not her fault I'm all sicky and gross all the time. Staying in my head is making me really tired too.
The doctors keep on grabbing my eyes and telling me to move them but I can't do that either. I'm not sure what I actually can do to be honest. I'm really useless at the moment and I'm getting nervous that Mama is going to give up on me. What if the doctors think I'm dead because I'm not responding!
Without much warning I can feel water pouring out of my eyes. All this bad talk is clearly making me too upset to think properly. Mama is usually here to make me feel better. I miss her so much. I haven't heard from Papa is ages, I wonder when he's coming back.
He's usually the first person to talk to me when I wake up in the morning - maybe he's only around when I'm awake. That probably means that I'll see him when I'm not trapped in my brain anymore. Now I have to wake up. I need to see Papa. I miss him too.
I miss everyone.
I want everything to go back to normal.
I don't wanna be sick anymore.
I wanna be a normal kid.
I wanna go home...
