My Father

Me a nurse see things most won’t 112420 a man was brought in by his mother She found him dead in his bed room with needles hanging from his arm as the blood dripped out from the holes in his arm The blood curteraling screams began but her efforts to save her son had nothing to the 15 minutes with no air to his brain At least he didn’t die in any pain I thought He was rushed into my wing of the hospital I started chest compressions “Clear” Shock Nothing… “Again” “Clear” Shock Nothing… As I was putting tubs in his body I was to see his mother be pushed out of the room screaming The blood curdling screams As the tubs I had wired through his organs Hooked to a machine kept him breathing A heart beat popped up on the monitor He was in a coma I brought his mother in the room Then the screams The blood curdling screams She never left his bed side Night came Morning came Again As I was bathing his limp body I over hear his mother specking to his kids She had looked at me with her eyes full of pain “If I put the phone to his ear will he be able to hear?” She asked me with her eyes full of pain I said “I’m sorry mam I have no idea if his brain is functioning yet” Those eyes she looked at me and said “it’s my grand kids they want to talk to him” I took the phone Held it to his ear A young girls voice from the phone said “Hey dad I love you and miss you I promise you everything is going to be okay if you can hear me I will see you soon” she sounded so sure of herself Then a young man’s voice much less sure then the girls breaking as he spoke “dad I love you” he said as if it was the last time he will say it I handed the phone back to the mother with her eyes filled with pain Ad her son that was laying sleeplessly next to her and that’s when I hear the story of how Ian overdosed on his daughters 13th birthday It was breaking my heart as I heard his mother retell the story to his daughter she hung up the phone Then the screams The blood curdling screams Over never heard this grate deal of pain come from someone’s through Then Ian got called into the other room for X-rays I told the mother her son will be back in no time I came back into the room as I hear the doctor tell his mother “he is unresponsive there for there is no chance of bringing him back” Then the screaming Then blood curdling screams Like the blood that dripped from the needs in his arm like the blood that dripped from his daughters arm as she blamed herself or his death like the blood curdling screams his daughter and mother shared every day for the loss of her father
