Nora said."Look.Look.."Finn cried."Samantha?"Manuel spoke up"Doctor!she's awake!she's awake!"I heard him calling out.The first thing I noticed when I opened my eyes was the intense glare of the overhead lightning.I raised my hand to cover my eyes until my eyes adjusted to the light.When the doctor were done with their tests and my vitals were checked, I watched the relief on all their faces.From Micheal and a beautiful female who was glued to his side.I couldn't hide the smile that crept up on my face which he returned with a boyish grin.My kids ran up to me.And with Manuel's help I was able to get them all on my bed.I was seated with my unbelievably huge belly inbetween my thighs.I had been told that I was asleep for over five months and that there had been any sort of hope of me recovering.
