Episode 4

She woke up in emergency bed with her sorum sticked into her hand.

Stand still - the nurse said - I need to measure your blood pressure. You fainted a couple of minutes ago. The nurse finished with her work, she took her leave. After Mara thanks the nurse for the work, she stood there still for a few minutes, pausing, lost into the oblivion of her thoughts and pain. Then after she was heading to her daughter's room. When she was walking down the hall to her daughter's room she just felt pain in her heart like someone was stabbing her, then when she entered to the room, her eyes just got dark. She couldn't believe that her daughter was breathing through a tube, that tube was keeping her alive. She saw her daughter laying down, looking like she was just sleeping and was watching a beautiful beautiful dream. It was too painful to watch her standing there, it was too broken heart for Mara. She decided to stay there and not move a muscle from the bed. She wanted to take care of her daughter in hope she would wake up. Day after day after day were passing and no result was coming from the test nor her daughter. She was the same. One day the brothers come into the room. They started work after 3 months her sister was comma. They started the work as an apprentice in a wood fabric. The payment was average but was enough to keep them alive and pay the sister maintance in hospital with all the medicines. Actually as to brother they were losing hope, but the mother knew in her heart that she would wake up, but didn't knew when.

The 4th month already was going by just like the river passing on his bed. Her mother was losing hope, even the hope itself was losing. The results were the same week after week they were testing and testing and testing, nothing changed. Then the doctor one day called Latishas mum and her brothers to notice them.

Mrs.Mara we need to talk if it is possible. Come into my office after 2-hours.

Mara was worried because she knew what the doctor would say to her and she consulted it with her two sons. Even the news was going to be bad they had to decide something that they didn't like it either. 2 hours passed by so fast they didn't even notice. When Mara entered into the doctor's office he said:

You have some news for us doctor don't you?- she asked. The doctor answered nodding his head in the meaning of yes.

Then please inform us - continued she set down in the armchair that was in the office. Listening carefully to the doctor's voice.

Mrs. Mara,.. I know that you love your daughter even hope that she would wake up, but the results are the same. They don't change. We need to decide what to do, because she cannot continue anymore. If progresses does not change then we have to decide to shut her down. The machines that are keeping her alive with oxygen will be turned off and eventually she will stop breathing and her heart will stop beating. I am very sorry to inform you about this - the doctor continued even though in his voice you could hear a shake. He didn't want it to tell those bad news either but.... he couldn't do anything for the first time in his life. The doctor felt hopeless for his patients in this case the mother Mara put her head down accepting the truth.

I understand. Please give me and my son's time to say goodbye to my daughter and them to their sister. That's all I am asking - Mara continued and for the last time the doctor nodded and Mara with her two and sons went out of the doctor's office.
