"Prepare ourselves for what?". I asked getting to my feet. I knew what she meant but I wasn't giving up. She was strong, it wasn't her time yet.

"Oh sweetheart". She bounced up from her seat pulling me in for a hug. "I'm so so sorry". She whispered. "How are you doing?". "Is there any change?".

"Okay". I wasn't leaving until I knew she was going to be okay. He didn't need to know that just now. I wasn't going to argue with him today.
