*************************************************************
I wake up moments after I was rushed into the ER.
My whole body feels like it was run over by a truck.
I can't seem to speak but my cries don't fall on deaf ears.
"Maya, it's okay baby... Just bare with it for a few more seconds than you'll sleep peacefully."
This was the last words I remembered hearing before suddenly every thing went dark.
I wake up, the sunshine is beaming through the hospital window.
I don't feel pain but on the other hand I literally feel noting.
I try to lift my body, but there's nothing to lift.
Tears start streaming down my eyes, and soft cries escaped my lips.
My grandmother most have heard me, because soon she is next to me.
"Maya, bear my baby, are you in pain?"
She asked me slowly patting my head.
I looked at her but I can't seem to find the words to say.
"Maya, I will go find the doctor, just five minutes my baby bear."
I watch her from the concern of my eye as she slipped out of my room.
Moments later the doctor and Gran is back.
He takes out his flashlight and shines it in my eyes.
Than her checks my vitals and listen to my heart.
" Maya, I'm doctor Samuel"
"You're safe now."
I nod
"Tell me are you okay, how are you?, do you feel any pain?"
The tears flow freely now.
"Docter, I... I... I can't feel anything... Nothing... Like... My whole body is gone..."
Now I am crying uncomfortably.
The doctors face turn comply pale.
"WHAT?"
He spoke so loud you might have mistaken it for screaming.
"What do you mean you feel noting?"
I look at him but can't explain it.
He than take out his pen.
"Maya, I am going to poke you on ur left leg, please respond if you feel anything."
I lay there my eyes tightly closed.
After fine minutes I hear the doctor suddenly yelling for the nursing staff.
He sounds extremely worried.
"You, I need a full clood count Stat"
"You, take her for MRI and CT scan now."
He looks over at me, and the concern on his face is evident.
"Maya, I don't know what is going on with your body, but I literally poked a hole in ur left foot and you didn't flinch at all, I did the same on your right foot and also several other places on ur entire body, I really don't know what's going on, so please just help me out here."
I look at him in disbelief.
" I'll try"
He takes a seat next to me.
"Maya do you remember anything about what happened to you before you came into the ER?"
I can't remember anything beside the moment I woke up in the ER.
"No,I'm sorry, the last thing I remember was when I woke up in the ER and that's it."
I see my grandmother looking pale.
She doesn't even look at me or the doctor...
Was there something she wasn't say...
