This is the second chapter, sorry for taking so long. I had mid-terms!!!
Jamie and I, we...we spent a beautiful summer together, filled with more love than what people could experience. I love her so much; I could almost die if I am not looking at her... I couldn't believe how I treated her before I found her inner beauty. I realized how cruel I was to her. I was changed though, thanks to her.
Today is the 25th of August, five more days until the end of summer. I entered medical school after our honeymoon in New York. Jamie, she spent her days in the local nursery, teaching children about the bible and how Jesus changed our lives. Every night, she would lead me in prayer and most of the time, I would open my eyes and stare at her face until the prayer was finished. I couldn't believe how lucky I am...
The next day, I was in the hospital, doing some practical work. We were learning how to do a surgery. It was lunchbreak, I sat with Michael, my buddy in surgery. No one believes that I am already married. They thought it was a 'mistake marriage' you know, when someone gets impregnated... Anyway, they knew that I married for love. Everyone knew Jamie Sullivan- Carter in the hospital. She comes in to the hospital regularly for check- ups. "How's Jamie doing?' "She's good thanks; the doctor said that she is doing really well" "Is there any chance?" "Chance of what?" "Chance of a miracle..."
"Ah, Mike, that is what I'd been prayin' for all my life. You know, I wanted her to do a bone marrow transplant but, you know Jamie, she refused to do it" "Why?' "She said she don't want to spend the remainder of her life in the hospital and she said she couldn't live knowing she only have a few chances of surviving. Bone marrow transplant is very dangerous" "I know...I am a medical student you know!"
Landon took another bite of his apple when his mobile phone rang. "Excuse me mike" "No prob!" Landon walked out of the table, near the vending machine. Mike could see his face turn pale. "WHAT? I'll be right there!" Mike stood up after hearing Landon's expressions. "What's wrong?" Landon was in a hurry and he swooped his tray and dumped them in the bin "That was Hegbert, he said Jamie just fainted in the nursery, I think something is wrong! Sorry Mike!"
"She's in the emergency ward isn't she? I'll come!" Mike followed Landon, they ran. In Landon's heart, he was wishing this never happened but deep down he knew, sooner or later, it will. One day, Jamie's body would be so weak, it couldn't cope with a ml of blood loss. Landon muttered a silent prayer that Jamie wouldn't leave him so early. No, my sweet Jamie, please don't take her now
"Mr Carter, can I have a word with you?" Landon followed Jamie's doctor to his room. As he sat, he was hoping that nothing big happened to Jamie. "How is she?" "She is just fine, just fine" "Why did she faint then?" "It is not because of her disease, Mr Carter" Landon heart relaxed a bit. Phew....... "It's because of her baby"
