Six Months Later

My mom was still in a coma.

I sat there in a seat right beside her and stared at her. She lost all her hair, so she was bald now.. She looked so different.

It wasn't a good different either.

She looked more..

Smaller..

Skinnier..

Sicker..

I guess that's what chemo and radiation does to people. It makes them look so different.

She lost one of her kidneys and slowly losing the other one.

I wanted to give her one of mine, but the doctor told me she'd have to wait 3 years to replace another kidney in her..

3 years.

But yet her kidney was already dying.

Not sure how the fuck that worked, but doctor's wanna think their God.

So now she's on life support..

My heart aches every time I see my mom like this.

Nobody should ever see a family member like this.

Ever.

What hurts even more I couldn't help her. When I prayed to God for her to wake up, she wouldn't.

I know God has a plan for everyone and such with life, but still.. I just wish he heard my prayers.

I lifted my head when my dad walked in. His eyes were red. Like he just finished crying his eyes out. I slowly stood up. "Dad..?"

He sat down on the chair right beside my mom and grabbed her hand as he stared down at my mom for a long moment, then looked at me. "Son. We're taking your mom off life support tomorrow.." He said quietly.

I felt my heart fell down to the floor. I don't understand what's happening.. They can't just give up on her like that! "W-what? You're kidding right?" I asked loudly.

My dad tilted his head down and rested his face against mom's hand. "Tweek..I'm sorry."

He tried his best not to break down in front of me.

"AGH! No!" I shouted as I walked. "Dad! S-she's still breathing! Her heart is beating! We can't just easily give up on her JUST like that!" I glared at him. How dare he give up.

"Son..

"NO DAD! SHE'S STILL THERE. WHY G-GIVE UP!?"

"BECAUSE SHE'S NOT WAKING UP TWEEK. IT BEEN ALMOST HALF A YEAR. THE DOCTOR'S CAN'T DO ANYMORE FOR HER." My dad shouted back at me then went quiet with his eyes squeezed shut.

I stared at him in shock and anger as the tears slipped down my face.  "So t-that's it? Listen to a doctor. Give up on mom. Husband of the fucking year." I quickly grabbed my stuff.
