True meaning

A Poem by Rebecca Garber
"

The passing of a loved one

"
Life is one of those things that people take for granted. They think nothing will hurt us, and we can do whatever. I have a close family member in the hospital, she has smoked for many many years. Finally one day she could not breathe so the rest of her life she has to be on oxygen. Well I got a phone call about three days ago. She is in the hospital, and they put her under a medical coma. She can't see you can't feel you, but she can hear you. I want to grab her hand as I know that she can'at squeeze. I wan't to tell her I love her as I know she won't respond, but she can hear. I want to sit by her bedside day and night, as I know she don't want me to for I have school. I wan't to dwell over the fact she has a five percent of surviving her surgery Monday morning as I know she does not want me too. She wants me to be happy. I see her lay they and I wish she would pass as I know she will when time is right, and I don't want her to pass, as I know she needs to, to get away from the pain and suffering she is in. She has been like this for over a week, with no sign of getting better. She is slowly passing and nothing to stop it. Playing the waiting game, is harder than you think. It makes it worse as you morn over the lose of her, then you will have to morn ounce again as she really does pass. They pain and torchure is eating away. Is this the true meaning of life.

Rebecca.. I've come back to this, wondering.. message done, not answered but or rather, so i fear what could be the worst. Sending love and thoughts, prayers most of all. Tis terrible to stand, sit, by and know what one knows...
