I open my eyes slowly and realize I’m in a hospital bed. I’m connected to some machines and can hear my own heart beat steadily increase as I take in my surroundings. The sudden increasing in beeping must have triggered an alarm somewhere because the next thing I see is a nurse rushing in to check on me. She stands there for a second, looking into my eyes with shock, then quickly turns around and calls for a doctor. Everything goes by in a blur as I find out about my child dying due to the impact and explains to me that I had sever head trauma and was in a coma for a month. I’m crying and feeling like I want to die as I grieve for my child and lost time. I’m confused as to where my family is and call their names repeatedly as I sob louder. The doctors try to hold me down as the gently try to explain that they are on their was now as we speak, and not to worry as they will be here soon, over and over again until I’m calm enough for them to let me go and walk out the room. This is when I wake and can’t stop thinking about the dream, to the point that I decide to write it down.
So yeah, did I mention this was a dream I had last night?
