It’s been two and a half years. Courts still hasn’t woken up; the doctors are trying to convince me to think about pulling the plug. No way am I going to do that to her. I know I’ve had my doubts in the past, but she has to see her babies. She’s going to wake up. I just know it.
I was watching a documentary the other day about a man who was in a coma for six years, suddenly woke up and shouted his wife’s name. He had to have physiotherapy and other treatments to get back to normal, but it made me visit Courts more. Every other day with the kids. They called her mummy, touching her face and sat by her. One day she’s going to wake up and wrap them both in her arms. She just has to.
I finally finished the house. Everything she wanted, down to the tire swing in the garden, as well as adding a few of my own tastes. Glass covering the whole of one side of the house like she wanted, big trees, not as high as big ben though. I appeared in the newspaper as a hero. A hero acting on the action of his comatose wife. I was getting pretty sick of the press and the kids weren’t acting well when they thought they were being watched at night. They cry sometimes, talking about Courts, how they want her to wake up. I have to try my hardest not to cry as well. They would get too scared if I broke down in front of them. So now, all I do is the daily routine. Wake up in the morning and get the kids dressed. Take them to see their grandparents or on an outing before going to see Courts in the evening. Bring flowers, so she has something pretty to look at when she wakes up. Roses and lily’s mostly. They were her favourites.
