Comfort

He's dying in a sterile hospital bed. Alone.

He needs me and I can't be near him. This is when he needs me the most.

Kate offered to stay with him, bless her. She doesn't want him to alone anymore than I do.

"He's dying, Ducky."

That was the first thing I heard after arriving at the hospital.

He's dying and I can't help him.

Please don't take him from me. I need him. He's my rock. The only man I have ever truly loved. I don't know if I can live without him.

I find comfort in dad's arms.
