When we got to the hospital Kylie and Georgia were waiting outside of the room with their eyes all red and puffy.

"We heard" they say in unison

And at that moment I start bawling. It was too much to take. Nora, My Nora is gonna be gone. Everything we had in common is gone.

While she sleeps on the white hospital bed she reminds me of a rain drop sitting on a leaf, slowly sliding off and hitting the ground.

And once she's gone, it's like her hitting the ground.

I cried at her bed side until she was gone.
