We
were all exatic with the great news we did not expect. It was all so
overwhelming and surprising but we all knew it was a blessing and it was going
to change all of our lives.I have been praying for this happen for the family
and it was a miracle. Just like that when I heard the news I started to plan it
all in my head, the colors, the theme, the food, the location, etc. My mom and
I would go to target and start buying some things she would need and it was all
alluring to be able to experience the excitement with my mom. I began to start
speaking to my parent’s friends to see if we could throw my mom a surprise
party for this blessing. They were all as excited as we were and wanted to help
out as much as possible. A few weeks passed and everything was going good, just
as expected. When all of a sudden my mom on a Friday was not feeling so well
and she felt like something was just not right. She told us and we just all
started to research and it said to not be alarmed and that it wasn’t anything
bad. That calmed down my mom so she could sleep but as she woke up that
Saturday morning she told my dad that she knew something was wrong and was very
nervous. Since she felt like that we decided to take her to the emergency room.
I honestly felt like it wasn't necessary because I thought everything was okay
and we were just overreacting. “It was a great sunny day to be stuck in a
hospital when nothing is wrong” I thought. We all had to wait patiently because
it was extremely packed, finally after hours, they called her in. Just like
that we were all anxious and praying everything was okay. She finally came out
and she told us that the nurse told her “I can not tell you anything until the
doctor is present, I apologize.” With my little knowledge of watching Greys anatomy
I knew deep down in my heart that something was actually wrong but I told my
parents to not worry but I had to go out for a walk. I had faith that God was
going to take control of everything. A few hours later they called her in
again. My family was silent at this time anxious to know what was occurring and
just like that we saw my mom with so many tears in her eyes. We all shared the
pain with her and couldn’t believe what was happening, wondering why this would
happen to us. My mom felt very guilty and she needed a lot of love from
everyone of us. It was very hard for every single one of us. I know that it was
tough to move on but I pray ……
My
baby sister/brother may be having a great time in heaven

The way you waited to tell us what had occurred with your mom was suspenseful and kept me wanting to find out what exactly happened. When I did find out I was heartbroken for you and for your family. I am so sorry for your loss but it was very brave of you to write this piece and share it with the class. This piece was beautifully written, great job.
Dang. This post describes a situation that no one would actually think could happen to them until it does. I'm very sorry you had to go through something like this, and the way you told the story made it very easy to understand the emotions you must have felt. Although it was a sad story that surely gets everyone thinking, great job writing it.
It's brave to open up about such a depressing period in your and your family's life. The suspense of not knowing everything was okay is a terrible feeling and I'm sorry you had to experience it. You did an amazing job in using detail to make the reader feel your feelings.
This is so sad. I'm sorry this happened to your family. I like how you spent the time to tell us readers what was going on with your mother. I know going through that tragedy was not easy.
Even though you never specifically stated what happened we still can understand the situation very well. Good job with your emotional descriptions, you really took the reader into the hospital with you to hear the news.
It was very mature/ brave for you to open up and share such a piece, during such a difficult time. However, the use of details and imagery made it even more surreal and we the audience were able to capture those feelings. Very nice job.

Bonnie, your piece was very moving. You described your tragic situation in a way that made me feel some semblance of how you felt then. And the suspense leading up to that tearjerker of an ending worked great. Thank you for opening up on such a personal topic.
