Keith who had not slept for more than 10minutes per time in the last seven months was now sleeping and it was going into twenty minutes.

In his sleep, his life was gradually ebbing away and he saw himself coming out from his own body. He landed in another world where he walked in a beautiful garden with very lovely flowers and the rising sun cast a rosy hue across the morning sky. He looked perfectly agile and handsome as he always had been.

Suddenly, he heard a thinly audible voice which appeared to be Kelsey’s. He shrugged and thought it was the regular hallucination he experienced back in the world but the voice became louder. He also heard three young children calling him for help and he looked around but could not find them.

He heard again "Kee-Kee, the boat is sinking" ….."Dad, help us, save us"

The voices were so intense but Keith struggled so much to find the people calling him.
