Saying No to Her Brain Surgery

Saying No to Her Brain Surgery

During the ten years since I was found and brought to my biological family, Sonia Baxter, the girl who took my place, and I have been as close as real sisters. Even Mom says that Sonia cares more about me than a real sister would. I once swore I'd give my life to protect our special family of four. When Sonia is rushed into emergency surgery with a ruptured cerebral aneurysm, I am in my office, calmly practicing a basic suturing technique on a surgical simulator. On the screen, the robotic arm threads the needle with such precision that it looks like a work of art. A few minutes later, my boyfriend, Oliver Lyons, slams open the office door and shouts at me, "Amelia Baxter! Sonia's in critical condition. Only your micro-dissection skills can save her! Every expert in the hospital is waiting for you! We've got less than an hour before the window closes!" He looks at me with hopeful eyes. I'm the only person in the country capable of performing a surgery this complex. My hands are even known as the "Hands of God". However, I simply reply with a hum and continue fiddling with the model. Suddenly, my parents rush in. Mom grabs my arm and cries out, "Amelia! That's your sister in there! How could you just stand by and watch her die?" I gently pull away from her and hold my right hand out in front of them. This hand, which had once created countless medical miracles, is now trembling slightly. "Unfortunately, since yesterday, I've been showing symptoms of essential tremor. Dad, Mom… this hand is ruined."

119 전화를 끊은 엄마

119 전화를 끊은 엄마

내 아들 준우는 땅콩을 잘못 먹고 심각한 알레르기 반응을 일으켰다. 나는 집에 있던 항히스타민제를 모두 버리고, 남편이 걸었던 119 응급 전화마저 끊어버렸다. 그리고 눈앞에서 준우가 호흡 곤란으로 질식사하는 것을 지켜봤다. 이것이 내가 기억하는 이번 생의 결말이었다. 하지만 이전 생에서, 준우가 호흡 곤란 증상을 보였을 때, 나는 곧바로 차를 몰아 병원으로 데려갔었다. 긴급한 치료 끝에 준우는 간신히 목숨을 건졌고, 나는 안도의 한숨을 내쉬었다. 그러나 나를 뒤쫓아 병원으로 온 시어머니는 날 향해 울부짖으며 소리쳤다. “너 같은 게 사람이라고 할 수 있니? 넌 내 손자를 죽인 살인자야!” 나는 황급히 해명했다. “아니에요, 준우는 무사해요. 치료도 끝났고 곧 퇴원할 수 있어요!” 그러나 내가 의사의 진단서와 퇴원 확인서를 꺼내 보이려는 순간, 그것들은 갑작스레 ‘응급 치료 실패’, ‘사망’이라는 문구가 적힌 사망 진단서로 바뀌어 있었다. 게다가, 조금 전까지 중환자실에서 회복 중이던 준우는 흔적도 없이 사라졌고, 준우가 있는 곳은 차가운 병원 영안실이었다. 나는 믿을 수 없었다. ‘이게 어떻게 된 일이야? 준우는 분명 살아 있었는데...’ 진실을 찾기 위해 병원 CCTV를 확인했지만, 모니터 속에서 내가 본 건 끔찍한 현실이었다. 화면 속에서 준우는 애초에 수술실에서 나오지도 않았고, 나 혼자만 아들이 아직 살아 있다고 믿으며 중얼거리고 있었다. 나는 점점 더 큰 혼란에 빠졌다. 아무도 내 말을 믿지 않았고, 결국 나는 정신이상자로 몰려 정신병원에 갇혔다. 그리고 마지막 순간, 병원 내에서 발작을 일으킨 사람들이 내게 몰려들었다. 나는 산 채로 이들에게 잔인하게 물어뜯겨 끔찍하게 살해되었다.

Brain Tumor, My Foot!

Brain Tumor, My Foot!

After my husband's car accident, I did a checkup and found out he had a malignant brain tumor. Instead of telling him right away, I stuck the report in my bag, planning to wait for the right moment. Guess what? He found it first—and thought I was the one with the tumor. A few days later, I overheard him in his office, laughing with a buddy: "My wife? No looks, no figure, just money—and now she's got a brain tumor. Talk about a win for me. If Rainee hadn't gone abroad, I'd never have married her. Bad luck, huh? At least I dodged the kid bullet. Once she's gone, I get everything." Then he pulled the amnesia card, blamed it on the accident, and started treating Rainee like his wife. He even welcomed her into our house. I smiled and said, "Nathan, let's get a divorce."

CAST OUT

Overpowered by the strong hands who grabbed her by the hair and pulled her along, dragging her into a dark room that recks of urine and cigarettes. Hurled her inside.

When she stares at his dark eyes, the only thing she saw was darkness. “Let go, let go of me you bastard!” She spit out. That only made his mighty five fingers appear on her face. Which sent her head spinning on her neck. He made her kiss the earth. And slowly breathed in her face. “Your life ends here....” his voice was deep baritone and cruel and that was when she felt the shivers down her spine.

INSIDE OUT

INSIDE OUT

".....one thing is clear to me now, Lind" he allowed the words sink in for effect. Cold beads of sweat broke out on her fore head. She was as confused as she was scared. Where was this fear coming from? Her lips were beginning to tremble, her hands shook like a leaf. Her pupils were visibly dilated. "You are two-faced Lind. Are you in or out?" he asked with a growl filling his dark and powerful voice. His hand was still like a vice gripping her slender neck. Melinda was beyond terrified, yet she couldn't explain why her lustful desire for him was etched deep in the pit of her stomach or her heart. She didn't know which exactly. She would find out the answer to her questions once she answered his.
