![]() ![]() Mike gave her a chocolate slab which he had bought while scouring the hospital and Skylar gave her hand one final squeeze before ushering Anthony out of the room with the crowd. Our friends nodded at her request, all starting to shuffle out of the room. "Can I please ask you guys to leave the room?" Grace, being the psychic she was, immediately noticed my discomfort with myself and gave me a shy smile. Sometimes I wished I had that ability, because then I wouldn't have to face people or my own thoughts for that matter.Īs I was sitting there, watching my friends converse with Grace, I felt truly isolated. Mike was back from walking around the hospital for about an hour now, always disappearing when things get too tense. I was part of this acting exertion as we all stood around Grace's bed, smiling as if she hadn't just given me the shock of my life. They don't understand how it hurts to be completely and utterly alone in your own mind while there are people all around you who is talking and joking and acting as if everyone and everything is just fine. Not everyone knows what true isolation feels like. ![]()
