Waking up

   A flash of light coming my way was all I could remember. The next thing I knew I was waking up in the hospital. My eye lids were so heavy I couldn’t open but inside I felt like I needed to somehow open then. Opening my eyes was the hardest thing I had to do, in my whole life. When they went open I saw all these people around me, my mom, my dad, and my brother and they fell asleep all over the room. I took a good look around and I realized where I was, I was in a hospital and I saw all kinds of machines around me. When I looked at my hand I saw my mom was holding on to my hand and by the looks of her it looked like she never left my side.

    Her hair was all over the place and her clothes where the same one I remember walking out of the house with on Saturday. I moved my hand and she woke up, when she got up she gasp and walked over to me and wrapped her hand around my face and said

“You woke up?” and she couldn’t help but the tears fell from her was and then I saw movement from my dad and brother and they walked over to me. And I could see tears coming out from their eyes. Little drops of water pouring out nonstop. I opened my mouth and turned to them and asked

“Why am I here?” my mom and my dad and my brother all looked at each other and my brother walked up to me and sat on my bed and said

  “You got hit by a car last week on Saturday, when you went to go to your friend’s party. You’ve been through 2 surgeries and been in a coma for a week. I know this is going to be hard on you but do remember anything from the accident to who hit you?” I put my hand on my mouth and starting crying and saying

“This can’t be happening, it’s not it’s just a dream,” then my dad walked up and took my hand and said

“I’m so sorry but this is real, can you try to remember who hit you with their car?” my eyes open wide and chocking back my tears I managed to say

“Someone hit me?” I turned to look at my mom and she nodded her head. I closed my eyes and tried to picture that night and all I got was a flash of light. When I opened my eye again I turned to my dad and said

“All I can remember was a flash of light coming towards me, and nothing else,”

“That’s okay, I’m going to get the doctor to come in here,” he said and walked outside. When he came back I saw the doctor and he walked over to me and said

“Hello, I see that you work up, I’m Dr. Smith,” he told me to sit up and he checked my heart lungs and my health. When he was done he turned to my mom and my dad and my brother and me and said

“It looks like Alexis has made a full recovery. The surgery was a success, she can go home tomorrow but I am going to prescribe her some medicine in case she is in pain, which she will most likely be in with the intensive surgery and being in a coma for a week but you guys can bring her home tomorrow.” Then he turned to me and said

“If in a week you don’t feel somewhat back to normal, and still experience pain come back. Be very careful with your stomach we had to operate there twice so only eat liquids and stay away from hard food for a while. Well I am going to let you rest and I will here to check on you tomorrow,” I looked at my parents and they said

“Well we’re going to go home and get your room ready for you, but your brother is going to stay with you,” then they walked out the door and my brother Damon walked over to me and sat next me.
