When A Part of You Family is Missing

Chapter 6 Why Us

Sean

How am I supposed to tell my loved ones. That we just met our daughter again. To tell them she probably won't make it through the night. I look up at the time I see that it's only ten at night. So I decided to redline Owen. He is better at handling this kind of situation like the rest of us.

Owen: Sean honey why are you calling this late. Did something happen. Is Melody awake.

(Damn this is harder than I thought. I just broke down crying. I can't get the words out of my mouth)

Owen: Sean your scaring us what is going on. Hello someone please speak to me.

Dr Roberts: Owen gets everyone here now. We don't think Melody will make it through the night.

Owen

We are all sitting down relaxing after getting the kids to sleep. Sean told us Michael was resting, cuddled all up to Melody. So we decided to watch a movie. So Cory puts on the old IT movie. About an hour into the movie. Raven feels a sharp pain hit his chest. Then the next thing I get a zap that hits my ass. I grab my phone and see that it's Sean. So I quickly dial the number. Everyone is watching me, they are also worried. So I put the phone on speaker. After I asked Sean why he was calling. All we heard was him breaking down. I scream into the phone for someone to tell me what's going on. That's when Dr Roberts told us to get to the hospital because our daughter was not likely to live through the night. We all jump up fast. I wake up our two oldest children Max and Dex. We explain that they need to watch their younger siblings. Then we all head out to the hospital. With Cory and Brandon holding Raven up. And Silas holding Darling (Sang)up. It takes us about fifteen minutes to make it there. That should have taken 45 minutes. We all just rush up to our baby girls room. I can't believe we are losing our baby for the second time. What have we done to make the universe hate us this bad.

Kota: when we finally make it to our daughter's hospital room. When I see Seans face, I just drop to the ground. When Ten (Sang) runs over to Melody crying and holding her hand. Not even two hours later Melody started going downhill fast. First her blood pressure started dropping. Then her pulse slowed down low. The next thing was her oxygen dropped drastically. She even flat lined again. When Dr Roberts asked us if we wanted to let her go. Our wife told us to let her fight. So they made us stand on the other side of the room. While they shocked her. Then intubated her. They were able to get her heart beat back. But now machines were keeping our baby girl alive. I turn to my mom begging for her to tell me why. What did we do to deserve all this pain and suffering? She just grabbed me and held me like I was a child again.

I called Pam to get her to come to the hospital. When I explained everything to her. I broke down when she did. Not long after they put Melody on all the Machines. Pam showed up. She had Charle and Theo walking behind her. After they walked in Uncle soon followed behind them. Not one of them had a dry eye. We were all crying for our baby girl Melody. Trouble (Sang) kept saying why bring her back to us. Just to take her away again. Our poor son wanted to be with his twin. But there were a lot more tubes on her now. So he just sat with us.

Sang

We all sit down in the family waiting room. We had to do a treatment plan on Melody. We all decided to give her 30 days. If she has no signs of coming back to us. Then we would let her go peacefully. When my baby boy Michael heard this he went nuts. Screaming that we don't love her, if we did how can we let her die. I grabbed my baby boy and hugged him. Then North took him and he started hitting his daddy north all over. Telling us not to give up on her. That he knows she is a fighter. She faught this long. It's been ten hard, rough years for her. Just to let this be her end.
