A Girl's Journey To Julliard Part Six

My mom answers the phone and I make sure that I'm quiet as a mouse because I don't want to say anything if it's bad news. I hear the doctor ask if this was the Carson residence and my mom says no. She gives them our last name, and then the doctor ask if she knew how to get a hold of Mr. Carson because it was important. She then proceeds to give the doctor the number for their household but then my mom asks how dad is. The doctors tell her fine and that he can come home tomorrow. The doctor hangs up with mom and we cry tears of joy. Although we didn't know what the doctors were going to say for Mrs. Carson. We prayed that everything was going to be alright. The doctors that day called Mr. Carson and as he answered he asked many questions and the first question was why did they not know that she needed a treatment for low sugar, and his other question was how come they were just now using an iv treatment to get insulin into her body? His questions were answered but the doctors had told him that because the insulin had to be given through an iv treatment, they were going to keep her over night for observation and if all goes well, she should be home by tomorrow morning. We knew Mr. Carson was relieved when he learned his wife was going to be okay and that she had a team of doctors taking care of her. He was happy for us too, because he wanted my dad to come home. My mom and I decided that we would go to the store and get some groceries but also we thought we would go and get a small non expensive gift to welcome dad home. When we arrived home, we put things away and then we decided to wrap the small gift in a box and then put on the living room table that was a small oak table that was hand carved and made by my dad. My mom and I then decide to go to the hospital and visit my dad and Mrs. Carson. To our surprise we see Mr. Carson and he lets us know that we was going to be spending the night here because he wanted to be able to bring his wife home, and he tells us how dad has told him that there is a program for people who go and meet with those who have gone through the surgery procedure that him and Mr. Carson's wife have gone through, and when they meet, they share their own testimonies and share how the experience has transformed their lives from their time in the hospital to when they have arrived home. Mr. Carson tells his wife, he is going to the hospital cafeteria to eat and he'll be back soon. We visit with dad and we tell him the good news that happened with me and my dad couldn't be prouder of me. I tell him that I'm somewhat nervous attending, but he tells me that I don't need to be. He tells me why I don't need to be nervous and I smile and give him a hug. We tell him we will see him tomorrow. He tells me goodbye and I wait in the hall, while mom and dad are still talking to each other. While, I'm waiting a boy that is the same age as me, comes towards me and starts to introduce himself. Although, while he's doing that I can't help but think that he seems very familiar to me. He seems so familiar, that you would think I would know where I saw him before or how I knew him, but my mind keeps drawing a blank of how I would have met him or where I saw and knew him from. I mean, I know it is crazy to say all of that, but it's just something about him, that I can't place.
