Doctor and Hand
Summer of 2007, though the sun was glittering and of course broiling, yet I remained next to the darkness and walked under the shadows. Unfortunately to those who were surrounded around me, were up against the stress, because I was what you can say going through a phase of “puberty”. The times of being emotional, the anger issues, and of course the heat just had to sugar coat everything, even the smallest things overwhelmed my body and things just got out of control. It became worse as I was in the process, I caught myself bickering with my mom a lot, clueless of what she was trying to imply and all she could do was try and lecture me. But with the rush of anger taking over my mind, it leads to another, unexciting to an unusual physical behavior. I never understood why I got so mad, why was this anger building up so fast over something so small? It was rather pointless when I thought about it, getting mad over a petty situation. During the time I was in my house, conflicts grew and fights were endless. It was late at night, and my mom was in a different city; in a business run. We were arguing over the phone, and I couldn’t take it anymore, all we did was go in circles, and everything inside of me was just building with the antagonism. But with that raging fire, I took my fist and forced out a hard hit against a filling cabinet. Creating a huge dent, and yet without feeling any sensation of pain. But then when I looked down at my injury it was the size of a plum, and the color was in a velvet red shade. I was confused, I asked myself “Is my hand broken?....” my sister in law was infuriated, she hated seeing me being so wrathful. She took me to our bedroom, and laid my hand on the pillow while rubbing the hot oil on my hand to ease the pain. We laid there for thirty minutes; I began to cry and wimp over and over. She was so worried she couldn’t help and just took me to the hospital. Where all I could feel incompetent, and the retched agony.

    I closed my eyes and as I opened them I was looking straight at my mother. That instant our eyes were locked I never wanted the lock to break. Another tear slipped down, and I could taste the salty warmth on my tongue. The crash took five seconds but it felt like ten years. This time I heard the words “I’m wrong mom. I’m sorry mom.” In an instant the noise grew so loud it seemed like I was standing in the middle of a nuclear bomb. Not a second later it was silent and the world around me went pitch…

    It was the middle of an away sophomore baseball game against DeWitt. My brother, Keegan, was up to bat. The pitch came, he swung and down he went. The baseball came off his bat and drilled him in the left eye. There was only one parent there, one of Keegan’s teammate’s dad. He drove Keegan to the hospital and called my parents. At the time, I was at a softball game working the scoreboard for the varsity West Delaware Hawks team.

    Trying to go to school the next day. Standing in the shower thinking maybe if I dont get out I wouldn't have to start my day and move on with it all.

    I went to my room and packed all of my belongings into two massive suitcases and loaded them into my old Holden Astra. I took some money from my mother's stash, neatly tucked away, out of sight under the bottom drawer of her bedside table, and then left for the next town over. I found a cheap motel where I stayed a few weeks, trying to find someone that would hire a 17 year old girl that dropped out of year 11. I got a job working at some fast food place that I hadn’t heard of before, and I still can’t remember what it was called.…

    I felt a fire starting up inside of me. My mom thinks I am a baby and can't handle things on my own. I felt adrenaline hit me like a mad bull. " I am a big boy I can handle anything," I angrily shouted. I got my moms big mirror, and with all my strength I tried to carry it up to our apartment. One of my shoes were untied, and I was beginning to lose my balance, my mom's mirrored weight about 25 pounds and were about 4 feet wide and 4 feet long. For a small skinny guy like me, that was pretty big and heavy to carry all the way to the apartment. Eventually, I lost all my balance and fell the stairs. I was able to stop myself by holding on to the ramp, but as I held on to the ramp, I quickly noticed I had let go of my mom's mirror. That mirror flew down the stairs, and once it hit the ground, it immediately shattered like all how my behind was going be after she was done with giving me whoopings. My mother saw the whole event happen before her eyes. I didn't even want to look at her facial expression, I already knew what was coming for me, I held my butt tight and was praying that I would still have a tail left over when she was through with…

    I didn’t know heartbreak until June 28, when my dad told me that he had stage 4 cancer. I didn’t know fear until August 13, when I found out that he would have to undergo radiation to combat a tumor in his brain. I didn’t know weariness until August 24, when everyone at school talked about how great their summer had been, and I had to lie and say that mine had been fine. I didn’t know how deep my love for my dad ran until June 29, when I wiped away my tears, stood a little straighter, and vowed to help him find little rays of light in even the worst days.…

    I decided to cut through the freshly dewed pine straw, which was slick from a heavy rainstorm the previous night. My feet started to slip from underneath me and my weight forcefully dragged towards the ground. Before I can stop my fall, my head smashed against hard cold cement. No thoughts went through my head. Neither pain nor suffering. Only Darkness. I woke up but only saw out of one eye. Warm thick blood ran down my face completely covering up my left eye. I was on the ground feeling nauseous and scared. I tried to stand, but I could not pry myself up, due to my broken clavicle. I decide to slowly crawl into the parking lot, in hopes that a bystander would see me. A man sprinted towards me and I stared dead into his eyes, and that is when I realize that the cut was worse then I had thought. Tears furiously run down my face and I let out screams of agony. The man propped me up against a black Ford F-150, and tried to reassure me that everything will be all right. I had a hard time believing him when his hands were shaking and he is yelling for help like somebody had just gotten shot. The man quickly took off my jacket and tried to stop the bleeding by applying pressure to the wound as a few parents rush to help. It must have been my lucky day since 4 doctors were at NYO and they were now by my side…

    It was a perfectly normal Saturday night, until I sat on the couch. I expected to enjoy a funny movie with my dad, but instead I got a trip to the hospital. I sat on the couch, and then I felt a sting in my elbow. At first, it felt like I got a shot at the doctor, but it slowly got worse, and felt more like a knife slicing into my elbow. I winced and sprung up from the couch. I squinted and my eyes scanned the spot where I just sat down. Aha, I thought. There was a small piece of plastic, and it looked like it broke off from a container.…

    At just about the hour when my father died, soon after dawn one February morning when ice coated the windows like cataracts, I banged my thumb with a hammer. Naturally I swore at the hammers the reckless thing, and in the moment of swearing I thought of what my father would say: "If you'd try hitting the nail it would go in a whole lot faster. Don't you know your thumb's not as hard as that hammer?" We both were doing carpentry that day, but far apart. He was building cupboards at my brother's place in Oklahoma; I was at home in Indiana, putting up a wall in the basement to make a bedroom for my daughter. By the time my mother called with news of his death--the long distance wires whittling her voice until it seemed too thin to bear the weight of what she had to say-my thumb was swollen. A week or so later a white scar in the shape of a crescent moon began to show above the cuticle and month by month it rose across the pink sky of my thumbnail. It took the better part of a year for the scar to disappear, and every time I noticed it I thought of my father.…

No one had any clue how I got injured. Without thinking about how it happened my mom started cleaning the blood running down my forehead and said "we need to get him the the hospital right now".

    It was a Saturday like any other Saturday. One afternoon I went outside to go play with a few friends. I was about 6 in the first grade and I was a normal kid. Actually I was a little dare devil. I was doing anything someone dared me to do. But, this day would change my mind about all of that. So, I found a few friends and we decided to go play at the park. At the park the monkey bars were for the big kid. My friends and I were all looking at the monkeys bars and then, they all looked at me. My friend Kevin said to me “I dare you to go across the monkey bars” and trying to tough I said “ok”. As I walked over the bars I had a littlestomachache but, I ignored it. As I approached the monkeys bars I am telling myself “you can do “over and over again. I then climbed the ladder and got to the first bars and decided to be fancy and skip every other bar as I went across the bars. As I was going across the bars I stopped in the middle out of nowhere and got scared. So, I let go of the bar that I was on and put my arms under me because I was going face first. Everything happened so fast that the next thing I knew I was looking at my arm as under my skin you can see a bone was out of place. One of my friends ran and got my mother and, she came over going crazy and called my stepdad to bring me to the hospital I called the whole way there. And, for the next 6 weeks I was in a cast but I learned my lesson that bad. Never go on the big monkeys bars nor stop in the middle of the bars.…
