The last 3 days

I think I have been on automatic pilot these last three days. I've even helped the stressed out nurses , with patients who have brain injuries that kept trying to get out of bed and take their feeding tubes out their noses.

I slept most the time at Petes side, my head on a pillow and my hand in his. I stroked his skin that was so hot due to the temperature of 40 degrees. The nurses brushed his teeth and wash and tended to turning him from one side to the other.

When the time came I didnt feel scared, I felt a rush of relief and peace. I comforted Ray and Craig. I havent cried much yet, I expect I will.
