Hearing, An Alarm Clock That You Can 't Turn Off

At the hospital the doctor got right to work trying to fix his head.Minute after minute they frantically worked trying to fix his head. After an hour and a half the doctor came out to talk to my grandma.

It happened when I was young. I was outside at my friend’s house sledding. We were taking a break when I got that phone call from my mom; she was crying. My sister was on her way to the emergency room. I started sprinting through the neighborhood towards my house. My dad was waiting with my brother in the car. My mom went with my sister in the ambulance. I was so scared that I was going to lose my sister. We got to the hospital and we were in the waiting room. It felt like days before we heard about her condition. My sister had pneumonia and mixed with her asthma she was having a hard time breathing. She had a severe attack and couldn’t breathe. If the crew from the ambulance didn’t show up the doctor said she wouldn’t have made it. I know

My step-mom's mom was traeling to our house at seven o'clock in the morning. My dad, step-mom, sister, step-brother, and me were waiting at the house for her. We had some sandwiches to snack on.

Mom is trying to tell us what happened but she's crying, then she makes out the words that she's having a double lung transplant. I start running around screaming because she has a disease that she has to be put on oxygen. Also she has to get new lungs.Most people die without ever getting the call to get new lungs but my mom did.I was full of joy and yet super scared I didn't know what to feel so I screamed . My whole family was crying tears of joy, especially me.

After a long December night, I was in my room the next morning getting ready for school. My parents had already left for work and left my brother and I at home. My brother was taking his time in the shower while I was brushing my hair in the upstairs bathroom patiently waiting for him to finish. After I was done with my hair, I went downstairs and knocked on the bathroom door and said,

The night before I could barely sleep. I made sure to iron my clothes and lay them out neatly and to shower. I was ready for daybreak to get here. I finally fell asleep and woke up excited. Today was the day of the cookout so we waited outside for our father to arrive. It was 8:00 in the morning and I wanted to get their early to ride everything. We waited on the porch which seem like an eternity and my father was a hour late. I went inside and tried to call but no answer on his telephone. See back then we did not have cell phone, just house phones. He finally showed up and was driving my Uncle Motley's white 1970 Volkswagen Beetle. My father's car had broke down and luckily borrowed my uncle's car. The bettle was real old and worn out and seemed like it was going to break down too.

My daughter was three years old when a daycare employee called to inform me that something was wrong and I needed to pick up my inconsolable daughter. I swiftly left work and sped to the daycare. As soon as I walked in, I saw her bright red screaming face and reached out to comfort her fluttering fingers. I held them tight as we walked out of the building, I realized that this was something serious and we were approaching a hurdle in life that nobody could possibly prepare for.

It was a quiet Saturday afternoon, I sat in the kitchen table eating while my mom cleaned the house. The calmness of the house was interrupted by the sound of the phone ringing, my mom answers. I look over to her and see her face flooded with tears, my heart sank to my stomach, I had never seen her that way before. Stuttering my mom says “hurry get into the car we’re leaving.” She hurries to gather her purse as she yells

“OH MY GOD” my mom screamed running toward me. She had picked me up, and ran faster than i've ever seen her run before, and went straight to the car. My grandma had been in the car already and was to the left of me in the back seat. I had my arm on a pillow barely conscious.

“I see you have deigned to return, your mother and I have been worried sick.”

“Mom what did the doctor-” I got cut off as my mom was gasping for air while crying and signing me in.

As we pulled into my driveway, my mom was waiting outside. My dad got out the van and went and hugged my mom, I was still sitting in the van. My hand sat on the handle, or at least I think it did, my body felt numb. A few minutes later, I finally opened the door and walked up to my mom who was still outside, my dad was inside telling my brother the news.

Me and my brothers got in the backseat where we were all crammed in. I felt hot and claustrophobic. My grandma and grandpa were coming with us. We went to there house where they gave me a chocolate donut it was really good. We stayed there for like thirty minutes. I was really sleepy but didn't want to fall asleep. I got up and went to their backyard. I saw their dog. It was a big german shepard his coat was black and brown.His name was Lucky. I played with him and was having a fun time until my brothers came the dog went to them. I went back inside and

We had a military operation on our hands, as my dad likes to say. We had to get all six kids plus pregnant mum into the car and to our booked table at the family reunion in Alsager. Without any unexpected trips to the emergency room. We packed up our things successfully and got the living room back to an acceptable standard. Each child now had to get ready, the house turned to mayhem really fast. I helped my sisters into their dresses and put their hair into braids and curls. My mum dressed my baby brother, and before we knew it we were putting on our North Face fleece jackets and were climbing into our Mercedes van. My parents refused

The next morning came around and my mom took me to the hospital. When we got there, we off course had to check in at the front desk. After that we sat in the clinic waiting room watching the kids play with monster trucks and colored blocks for what seemed to be forever.
