Five Year E Ticket

My Dad was at Shands Hospital in critical condition. He had a serious head injury and had lost some of his memory. He could have died. We are very lucky that he didn't. After about three weeks, my mom agreed to let me see my dad. My sister was fine now, but we were all worried about my dad. When I got up to my dad's floor and into his room, we sat down next to him. My mom woke him up and told him that we were there, but he didn't totally wake up. He thought that I was his sister and that my mom was his mom. When I heard him say this, I started crying. I didn't think that he was going to recover. I was really scared. JANA SANFORD, Sixth Grade
