Small Painful World
Thank God
I woke up on the floor surrounded by EMS guys. I didn’t even remember
what had happened; I guess I had passed out. “What happened’ I
said weakly. “Miss just stay still okay, how many month pregnant are
you” he said with a worried face. “Seven months” I said looking over to
see Frankie sitting on the floor next to me holding my hand. “Hey buddy”
I said you could see the fear in his eyes. “Im alright okay” I said. He just
nodded not taking his eyes off me. The man came and kneeled down
next to me. “We are going to have to take you to the hospital because we
are unsure of hoe serious you condition is” he said in a caring voice. “Okay”
I said scared. As they put me on the stretcher I could feel intense pain in my
stomach. The ride to the hospital felt like forever. I was freaking out becaus
e they had the sirens on and didn’t stop at one red light. The man started
asking me questions again. “Have you had any problems through out y
our pregnancy so far” he said. “No nothing” I said. He looked at me like
I was hopeless. Once we got to the hospital they rushed me into the
emergency room. A doctor came over and started examining me. Luckily
it was a woman but at the moment that wasn’t what I was worried about.
She picked up my chart. “Heidi you need to go into surgery right now okay”
she said demanding. “Am I going to be okay, I mean what’s wrong” I said
freaking out. “We are having trouble finding the baby’s heart beat” she said.
At that exact moment I felt my whole body sink. I started to throw up. As they
brought me into surgery I was the most scared I had ever been, and I didn’t
have Nick or Shannon here with me. A couple minutes later they put me under.
I woke up to find Nick by my bed side holding my hand. “How’s the baby”
I could barely get it out. He looked up and I could see the tears rolling
down his face. At that moment I thought she was gone. “She is fine and
you are fine you are both okay” he said with a slight smile. He got into
bed with me . “I love you so much don’t scare me like that again okay” he
said kissing me. I was crying still even though everything was okay. I
looked down at my stomach and thanked god for letting everything be
okay. After laying there thinking and settling down I realized I recognized
the room. I started to cry again. “What’s wrong” nick said. “This is the
room Shannon died in Nick” I said crying. Nick looked at me and we
cried together. We just laid there and Nick kissed my stomach. We
held each other all night.
