Flynn had explained it to him over and over again but Kane still found it hard to understand what he had to do. He had to sign a consent form to have Kirsty's machine switched off then he would have to sign other documents about insurance...things that he felt didn't mean anything anymore. Then he would have to say his goodbyes and watch the source that was keeping his wife with him being turned off.

Everything about the last couple of days hurt so much Kane found it hard to even speak anymore. Over the last few days he had been a constant presence next to Kirsty, only leaving when one of the doctors or Ryse told him to. He was still hoping, hoping for some sort of miracle...anything.

Flynn entered the relatives room filled with sadness.

"It's time." He whispered softly.

Dani broke down in tears again; Ryse put a gentle arm around her and guided her out of the room. His face was set...passed crying he just needed to get this over with as the pain was too much to bear.

They left the room quietly as Flynn sat next to Kane.

"I know how hard this is going to be for you Kane; I just want you to know that me and Sal will be here for you."

Kane tried to thank him but he just couldn't get the words out. The door swung open and Flynn was called away by a nurse... leaving Kane alone.

His head ached, his eyes were sore with crying, his heart felt too heavy.

He sat in the room for what seemed like eternity until the door opened and a nurse motioned Kane to follow her.

This is it he thought. Fear overcame him; stepping out of the dark relatives room the harsh light of the corridor hurt his eyes. How he wished that he could be one of the people just wondering around the hospital not realizing the hurt he was feeling.

He reached Kirsty's room dreading entering it. Ryse and Dani stepped out both shaken, in turn they both nodded at him, understand just how hard this was going to be for him.

Entering her room he felt so alone, so scared. Sitting next to her he was lost for words. He just sat staring at her wanting to take in every last minute of her. Kissing her lightly on the lips his tears splashed onto her face.

"I love you Kirst." He whispered. Wiping the tear marks away from her cheeks softly and holding her hand he nodded to Flynn to enter the room.

"Ok Kane, I'm going to turn the machine off now...are you sure you've said goodbye?" He asked quietly.

Kane nodded feebly.

It was all over in a matter of minutes. Flynn switched the machine off, took out all the tubes and they waited...but nothing happened Kirsty did not breath on her own. Crushing her hand, willing her to breathe Kane broke down into yet more tears. Pain surged through every part of his body...he'd just watched his wife die. Flynn turned to comfort him.

"I'm sorry Kane."
