My Life With Him.

~Chapter 7

Jacob and I have been dating for a month and a half and it’s been truly amazing. He’s bought me flowers and chocolates. And just yesterday, he got the newest Black Veil brides album which I am currently listening while I get ready to go out to buy him the best present I can find. I’m worried… Jacob hasn’t text me yet. As I think that, my phone goes off. It’s an unknown number. The text reads: ‘Hi Hazel. Its Jacob’s mum. I just wanted to let you know that Jacob is up in the hospital. You are welcome to come see him if you wish.’ I panic.

“Jenny, I’m not going out into town now, I’m going to the hospital!” I shout downstairs and I brush my teeth.

“Why hunny? What’s happened?” I tell her that Jacob’s in hospital walk out the door and run to the hospital. I get there and I am greeted by a lovely lady.

“Hello. How can I help you?” She says. She smiles at me. For some reason her smile makes me feel safe. I run up to the desk.

“Hello, yes please. I’m here to see Jacob. Jacob James.” She looks me in the eye.

“Right this way.” She takes to me where Jacob is and as soon as I see him, I break down into tears. I sit beside his bed and hold his hand.

“Does he know I’m here? Can he feel me holding his hand? Can he hear me talking” I’m panicking. I don’t know what to expect.

“He knows you’re here, he can feel and hear you. He’s just sleeping.” I ask her what happened… “Last night, miss. Young Jacob’s heart was having trouble pumping blood round his body. Jacob has always had heart problems, he was born with them, but they’ve never been this serious.” Three doctors walk into the room and ask me to leave. I hold Jacob’s hand tighter, I’m not letting go until I know he’s okay. The doctors check Jacob’s blood pressure and pulse. They don’t look happy. They whisper something into the ladies ear and leave the room.

“Jacob’s still having trouble getting blood through his body.” The kind, lovely lady comes over and tells me. He’s going to need a heart transplant, but we are having trouble getting the heart.” I cry. What if they don’t find the heart? I’ll be without my Jacob Bear…
