Dear Diary,
Lynna was sick. Very, very sick. She was barely hanging onto life and I visited her everyday, whispering to her Stay with me over and over, as if she could wake up and respond. She had nightmares, tossing and turning. I stayed at the hospital, went to school, then rushed back. I talked to her, about school, about homework, about how much I loved her, and she kept saying one sentence over and over, as if in a trance, “NO! PHOENIX! COME BACK! DON’T LEAVE ME! COME BACK” and burst out in tears. The doctors said that that one memory was playing like a loop in her mind, the last thing she saw before she fainted. She was in pain, and I felt so bad about what happened to her. I calmed her by stroking her hair, hugging her tight, telling her I was there for her, that I would never leave her side. This made her calm down and fall asleep, but after awhile her panic would begin again, the tears, the agony, the frustration and confusion in her voice tying a knot in my stomach. The doctors said they had never seen such a condition, but kept her in the hospital all the same. I paid all her bills, every gold piece without question. I wept every night in bed when I went home, her horrible screams echoing in my head. I didn’t know what I would do if she died. I couldn’t have lived or moved on if something had happened.
