The Lost Kid

Chapter 3 The Loss

It's now the next month and I'm very nervous about Mrs Blanchard going to be examined. Recently she's had head-aches and tummy trouble but no complaints on her breathing. I'm 60% sure she's going to be okay and back to normal, but the other 40% is that she's getting sick which can lead back into her lung and heart problem. Mrs Blanchard went to the hospital this morning and preferred to go alone just incase anything was to happen to her. At about 08:30 she went to the hospital and came back at 10:20, I'm very curious yet frightened about her long stay at the hospital. I asked her if everything's alright. She remained quiet. Her face said yes but her eyes said no. I asked her again, she still said nothing. I'm starting to be impatient so I shoved her a little and she looked at me in a startled way. She told me that the doctor said she's just a little dizzy from the injections she got last month but she's fine and doesn't have flu. However the chemicals that were injected into her, weren't good for her veins and her lung problem acted up again. I'm heart-broken💔 Now she has to stay at the hospital overnight to examine the veins and her lungs. It's just Love and I in the house. The very next day, she came back home early in the morning and was crying her eyes out. I asked her what the matter was and she said that her examination on the veins was an easy cure, but the lung cancer was definite and...and...umm..uh.. She was going to perish in a few weeks😭 That night she read me a story while I was battling to keep my tears away. The elegant sound in her voice made me miss her already. I couldn't help but cry. She gave a big bear hug and told me I was beautiful, an angel and capable of doing great things. I couldn't sleep that night knowing my guardian was about to be late. Love curled up next to me in the bed and I kissed him on his cute little nose. He's my best friend. I slowly fell asleep with Love next to me. Suddenly in the middle of the night I heard a loud thump! I ignored it, but following it I heard Mrs Blanchard screaming as if she was in pain. I rushed into her bedroom and saw her laying on the floor crying and huffing for breath. She's scaring me. I called the doctor and he came with his crew who hurried her into the ambulance. They called me to come along and I grabbed Love, then we jumped into the ambulance. I prayed hard. We entered the hospital and the doctor sent me and Love into the waiting room. The doctor came out a few minutes earlier and said he had bad news. He told me that the lungs were pressurizing the heart which eventually stopped, which means that Mrs Blanchard was dead.
