He knelt next to Florence’s hospital bed and clasped his hands together.

“Hey, God, if you are real please help her live because Flo deserves more than anyone, I love her with all my heart and I need you to save her because, she’s my strength, my confidence, she is the reason I’m on them stages singing. I need her. So, erm…Amen.”

Dan wiped the tears falling from his eyes.

John came from behind him and patted him on the shoulder.

“That’s was beautiful mate.”

“Sorry.” He said wiping his face on his sleeve.

“We all get to be a bit soppy once in a while; I hope your prayer is answered.”

Dan nodded.

Her mother and father came in behind John and her father hugged Dan.

“You mean so much to her, she will be fine, I know it.” He said.

They sat there until visiting times were over, even then Dan stayed, and he slept on the armchair beside her.

Florence woke up in the night and stared over at Dan.

Dan hadn’t been able to get much sleep and was staring at his hands.

“Daniel.” She reached her hand and placed it on his.

“Are you okay?” He asked.

“I’m fine.”

“Good.” He nodded.

“Thank you.” She replied.

“What for?”

“I heard the prayer.”

“It doesn’t mean I’ll go to church or anything, I just…”

She put her finger on his lips.

“Can I have a hug?” She said and he sat beside her with his arms around her.
