Chapter 26 - Holding On to Your Life

My life as a Child
I remember Stella my Mom
always putting on bows on my hair
braiding it and most times I cry because it hurts my head
she likes it when I am neat
and my hair up in a tight bun or a high pony tail

She lets me wear her clothes and try on her shoes
puts make up on my face
and takes a picture of me
she laughs so loud
when i trip on her dress and high heels
I was always wondering where her energy came from
how she was always vigorous
and always smiling
when in her eyes
she really wanted to cry


Stella was in an ambulance
she was sedated
and carried by firefighters once she was rescued on the plane that crashed and burned
on the runway

her left eye was burned
she also got her leg badly injured and needs to be amputated because it was shattered
due to impact
Stella was always flying first class
she likes fancy things
she loves luxury and fine clothing
most importantly
she loved wine

and after she downed a Rose Sorbet on the flight for her check up
she fell asleep
and thats when the accident happened

a burst in the air stopped the plane into a halt and stalled
and they went back and titled to the left where Stella was sleeping soundly
and not knowing that the plane she was on
is going to be desperately crashing down while the Pilot tried to regain control
The Co-pilot helped the Aircraft hover and they landed but the left side of the plane
blew up and the left wing is sliding onto the runway as the Airport Control Tower
watched in horror when flames started to engulf the Plane
and thats when firefighters came and blasted the aircraft with suds or foams to exterminate the heat coming from burning fuel and cools the engine down
then water followed to extinguish the fires from both the cabin and fuselage
the wing was busted and you can see the engine has blown to pieces

the News broke out this Morning at 10:30 am Air traffic Control reported a missing plane
it disappeared from radar coverage and cannot be seen for 15minutes
then the Pilot called in that they are stalling and will need to go back to the runway as they have experienced Heavy turbullence and the plane tilting on its left side
then minutes later the Flight is seen crashing down onto the grounds of Seattle Tacoma International
Aiport

So far only 1 person has been rescued and 150 others more are now being recovered including thr flight Crew
no comments from the flight control personnel and the Airline Company
the reporter is eagerly stating the news live on television as Allen and I
were being rerouted due to the accident
and My heart was crushed as the scene is shown on screen
I buried my head onto Allen's chest
and I prayed my Mom is okay
We rushed to the emergency after 45 minutes waiting at the arrivals
and Police are everywhere first responders are actively giving instructions to nurses and doctors
instructed who goes to the Operation room or who are already not living
while
Families are being held up and not given any word
we are all getting anxious and everyone screaming and crying and trying to find love ones
as I held onto Allen's hand he was covering my head as I almost fainted hearing about my Mom
being rescued and brought to the Trauma Intensive Care unit due to her major injuries

the Doctor who we talked to is Doctor Miller, and he said Stella's body was in great shock and they immediately had to operate on her and try to save her. She is stable now, but she is in a coma
and we could only see her through a thick glass window and she has all these apparatus on her
tubes on her mouth, and Oh My God she lost her foot and right leg almost half above her knee
I cried so hard seeing her this way and I cannot help her or talk to her

There are still so many things
I want to tell her
like how could she not love me as her own
and why did she take me from my real Mother
but now is not the time for any questions
she needs me to be strong
and I need her to stay alive
I put my hand on the see through wall and extended a prayer for her safety
and blew her a kiss so she'd wake up fast
and yell at me again for not wearing make up or sun screen in May where dry skin is rampant
and she hates it when my hair is so messy and my eyes red from crying
Please Mom wake up
don't leave me
It's Angel Your daughter
I'm right here with You
hold on Mom You will get through this
You're the toughest of them all
and You will stand up again
and start kicking and screaming at everyone as if they are not professionals
and You are the richest bitch with the highest head up and nothing
can ever break You down
that is who You are
so please wake up
don't leave me
I cried again as I fell to my knees and suddenly my mind went blank
and everything goes dark around me
