"Darling..."
My mother held her arms out to me as I burst into her hospital room. Her skin was so pale it was almost translucent, her cheeks gaunt and her eyes hollow, but...
She was alive. And sitting upright in the hospital bed.
A s**b escaped my throat as I rushed forward, practically throwing myself into her arms. I buried my face in her chest, inhaling her familiar scent beneath the sterile hospital smell. Her arms, though weak, wrapped around me as tightly as she could manage.

My breath caught in my throat. It had been so long, and I had been in such a haze during that time, that I'd almost completely forgotten about those hours I had spent desperately trying to heal my mother to the point of almost going into a coma myself.
"But it didn't work," I said, shaking my head. "I tried, but I couldn't..."
"It did work, Audrey," my mother insisted. "I felt my body strengthen in response to your efforts. It might have been small, but it made a difference."
