Chapter 11
Ephram wanted to scream, he hated, hated, hated rehab. Moreover, to make it worse Dr. Abbot was also making him do rehab at the house as well. Nevertheless, there was always a silver lining at the end of the day, when he was taken to see his father. Delia would be there when Ephram was in rehab, and then it would be his turn. Two weeks had gone by since Ephram had been let out of the hospital. It seemed like and eternity.
Ephram rolled himself into his fathers' room and sat with Delia in his lap for a few minutes before Delia smiled a small smile and left the room. Ephram rolled up closer to his father.
"Hey, Dad. We really need you, please come back." Ephram mumbled taking his fathers right hand. He was shocked when he felt movement in said hand.
"Dad?" Ephram spoke louder, there was definitely movement. Ephram grabbed the call button and pushed in the button. A nurse appeared in the doorway.
"What's up Ephram?" Nurse Clare, who seemed to always be there asked.
"He moved his hand." Ephram smiled hopefully. Clare was at the bed in an instant.
"Doctor Brown? Can you open your eyes for me?" All she got was a low mumble that sounded rather like no. Ephram grinned again. Clare smiled.
"So he is. I'll be right back." She left the room to get a doctor. Ephram truly smiled for the first time.
The Next Day
Ephram grinned as he rolled himself into his fathers' room; he was sitting up with Delia asleep in his lap.
"Hey dad." Ephram laughed quietly as he rolled himself to his fathers' bed and slowly and painfully stood up so that he could also sit in the bed. His father worriedly helped him on to the bed. When Ephram was comfortable, he sighed.
"How are you feeling?" Ephram asked.
"I should be asking you the same thing." Andy smiled. "I had the strangest dream, you were crashing…" Ephram held up his hand.
"I did, they forgot to lock the bed when they shocked me and it slammed into you." Ephram explained. "It was strange…" Ephram started.
"What was?" Andy said in a shaky voice.
"When I crashed, I was still there. I was floating above my bed it was the strangest feeling. I saw it all happen, and then mom was there. She told me she loves us and is watching us. She said it wasn't my time. Then I was waking up back in bed." Ephram whispered. "I haven't told anyone that before." There was silence for a while as Ephram lay back against his father and tiredly shut his eyes. Andy let a single tear roll down his cheek.
His family was together again. They would be all right.
