She looks so tiny in that hospital bed surrounded by wires and machines, her face so swollen that I can barely recognise her. The nurse pulls out a chair for me as she says.“Sir, you can take a seat next to the bed; I’ll be at the desk if you need me,”I nod my head before I ask the nurse.“Can I hold her hand?”She smiles as she replies.&nbs
