Chapter 10

1 week later......

Lizzie's POV:

It's been about a week, and they finally let me out of my room. As far as i know, the rude nurse is gone. I tried to open the door to Hope but it didn't open. Joel opened the door. He looked surprised that it was me.

"Hi!" I said and smiled, "Can I come in?"

"Sure hon', it is your baby." He put his hand on my shoulder and kissed my cheek before we went in together. Instead of seeing just Hope, I saw all of them. All of my children. 3 cots, 1 for each. Slowly I walked up to the middle of the room, tears filled my eyes as I saw what no mother should ever see. My babies, hooked up to tubes for breathing, medicine and food, and most of all, Hope, wired up to every thing they had. I touched her forehead and started to cry.

Joel came up to me, a moment after he saw me crying. He put his hand on my back and bowed his head with me. We stood there for a while, then Joel took my hand and led me into our temporary bedroom. We sat on the bed.

"Joel...." I whispered, "Is she going to make it?"

"I don't know, babe, I don't know"
