Hello Father it's me again
2 AM room 304
Visiting hours are over
Time for our bedside tug of war
Jesse watched the heart monitor go up and down rise and fall on the little girl he and Becky had for seven years. Pamela Michelle Katsopolis named in honor ofJessie's sister and youngest niece was born first; her brothers Nicholas and Alexander following 4 years later. When Becky was pregnant they decided not to find out the gender of the child. Jesse had wanted a boy and actually bought so many items in blue just in case they had a boy. Becky had Pamela Michelle at 2 AM in the same hospital that they were in now. Jesse thought he would be disappointed if he didn't have a boy but he was wrong. Pamela Michelle was the most perfect baby he'd ever laid eyes on.
The sleeping child between us
May not make it through the night
I'm fighting back my tears
As she fights for her life
The driver was drunk. He climbed the damn curb and Pamela Michelle got hit by the car. It was a hit and run. The doctor told Jesse and Becky that Pamela Michelle probably would not make it. It would take a miracle if she did. Pamela Michelle did survive the night but her kidneys and liver was shutting down as a result of the trauma. If she were ever to walk again she'd need surgery and the doctors said that she was not out of the woods yet and she could die at any time.
Well it must be kind of crowded
On the streets of heaven
So tell me
What do you need her for
Don't you know one day
She'll be your little girl forever
But right now
I need her so much more
She's much too young
To be on her own
Barely just turned seven
So who will hold her hand
When she crosses
The streets of heaven
"Jesse?"
He looked up as he saw the spirit of his sister walk into the room.
"I can't lose her," Jesse sobbed, "She's my baby. Are you here to take her?"
"Calm down," she told her brother, "You know you learned a lot from my mistakes when I was young You learned a lot from seeing me with Stephanie and DJ and Michelle."
"Obviously I didn't learn enough," Jesse said, "I suck as a dad because Pamela Michelle is in this shape"
Tell me Father do you remember
The wishes that she made
When she blew out the candles
On her last birthday cake
She wants to ride a pony
When she's big enough
She wants to marry
someone like daddy
When she's all grown up
((Flashback three months ago))
"Mommy," Pamela Michelle said, "I want a pony"
"Pony, pony, pony, pony" the twins cheered.
"Well sweetie we can't buy a pony," Becky said, "But we can rent a pony for the day"
"We can do what," Jesse asked
"Come on Jess," Becky said, "It would be fun"
"Please daddy," Pamela Michelle asked in a tone that made it impossible for Jesse to say no. When he said yes Pamela announced that she was going to marry someone like her daddy when she got married.
Well it must be kind of crowded
On the streets of heaven
So tell me
What do you need her for
Don't you know one day
She'll be your little girl forever
But right now
I need her so much more
She's much too young
To be on her own
Barely just turned seven
So who will hold her hand
When she crosses
The streets of heaven
"JESSE WHAT HAPPENED TO PAMELA MACHINE IS NOT ANYONE'S FAULT BUT THAT DRIVER," Pam yelled to get his attention.
"But I'm going to lose her," Jesse cried.
"I wouldn't be so sure of that," Pam said, "Look do you remember when we first found out Stephanie was sensitive?"
"Do I ever," Jessie said with a sigh, "She flipped out about something that was really not a big deal-"
"To you, to Danny, to me, to DJ; it wasn't but to Stephanie it was. We had to readjust our way of thinking when we found out how sensitive Stephanie was. But as worried as we were she was alright."
Father, don't you know
She's my baby
You've got so many of your own
I know you have a place for her
But she's already got a home
Well I don't know
If you're listening
But praying's all that's left to do
So I ask you to have mercy
You lost a son once too
"It's different though," Jesse said, "Stephanie wasn't dying. Pamela is shutting down. She may never walk again"
"I think you're forgetting something," Pam said, "You're forgetting that you have a sister that is dead. That comes with certain privileges. Pamela Michelle is going to be just fine. I'll see to that"
Well it must be kind of crowded
On the streets of heaven
So tell me
What do you need her for
Don't you know one day
She'll be your little girl forever
But right now
I need her so much more
But I know
When you make up your mind
There's no use in begging
So if you take her with you today
Will you make sure
She looks both ways
And will you hold her hand
When she crosses
The streets of Heaven
"Jesse," Pam said, "One more thing. YOU will be the one holding her hand when she crosses the streets of heaven 67 years from now"
Pam's promise did come to pass. Pamela Michelle lived a full life married, had 3 daughters of her own and 2 grand-daughters. One day after her grand-son was born 74 year old Pamela Michelle held him, closed her eyes and died peacefully. Suddenly she was a young girl again. She had her father holding her hand to cross her on the streets of heaven.
