Shawn could no longer breath on his own. I had rushed up here at 3 in the morning because he had stopped breathing. They put him on a ventilator because I thought it would help. It was getting later. It was almost night. The doctors words sinking in. Machines were doing all the work.
I had to leave the room. If my heart had anything left, it died in that one sentence. "I'm sorry but there is nothing we can do." That one sentence crushing everything or anything I had left.
I took Shawn's hand and gently kissed it. My Shawn. I closed my eyes and put my other hand on his.
"Father please," I whisper, "Please don't take him from me." My tears burning my eyes. "I'm begging you. Please save my Shawn."
Please don't take my Shawn. Can't he see how much I love him. Open his eyes. Please give me more time with him. Please don't take him. He is my whole world, my heart. My broken, sickly, fragile heart laying in that hospital bed.
I'm crying and begging over and over but I already know what the answer is. It just isn't the answer I want. Not what I want at all.
