As I get to the room, I can hear quiet sobs. I enter the room, to see Liam sleeping with machines all over his face and his mom and dad watching him, his mom crying.
As I enter, Karen looks back and she's shocked.
"Ashleigh?"
"It's me.. Hi Karen and Jeoff.."
Karen comes to me and hugs me tightly, "I'm sorry Ashleigh."
"No.. I'm sorry, I wish he wasn't like this right now.. I'm sorry that it happened all so sudden like that for him.."
"It's wasn't all sudden, I knew this would come but I wasn't prepared."
"What do you mean?"
"He didn't tell you sweetie..?"
"Tell me what?"
"This has been happening for the last five years, it's been like this for a while."
I feel my heart drop and I feel sick.
I look over at Liam and walk over before placing my hand on his.
As I touch him, his heart monitoring is going down, his dad is screaming for a nurse.
I move my hand and start crying, everything felt like it was in slowmow and I would fasten up the heart break.
The once steady heartbeat was now cold and dead.
I start screaming and I fall to the floor sobbing.
He's gone.
