They kicked me out of the room and locked the door...leaving me completely blank..completely clueless as to what is going on with my wife and child..it's been hours with no word.."The baby is fine, she will need to be put on some oxygen where her lungs haven't been properly formed yet.. " the doctor pauses looking down.. He takes a deep breath and looks back at me with sorrowful eyes. "Carla.. She lost so much blood.. " no... This can't be happening.."You need to make a decision.. Turn her completely... Or let her go...you will have to raise the baby on your own.."

"No. She's alright.. She is fine, I promise you she is. She is strong..." I know she will be okay, she can't go.. No Carla.. No.. I burst through the door hoping that it was all a dream and she a beautiful baby girl laying in the arms of a nurse with oxygen tubes running into her nose..and Carla. She is hooked to 4 or 5 different machines..and they are trying to pump blood into her..but it isn't working...I know what I have to do.. But I don't want to.. She will hate me forever..

"You need to act now sir.. Or you will have no choice other than to let her die.." He says laying his hand on my shoulder...I shake my head...I can't. " I'll give you two some time to say your goodbyes." Pulling the door shit he leaves me in the room to face the decision of taking away all of her humanity, or letting her go with what little she has left... I can't let her die.. I won't lose her again.
