[ fourteen ] what do you give when there's nothing left?

Jul 26, 2006 17:54

My father once told me that I could do anything I put my mind to. I could save the world.

He lied.

Mr. J, a 55-year-old retired Vietnam veteran, presented to the ED two weeks ago with bone pain. Three days later, he was diagnosed with metastatic multiple myeloma.

Today he died holding my hand.
