Book Excerpt

"Shut up and get me some fuckin’ water!” Those were my
first words and the first thing I remember upon
awakening. My sister was just droning on and on about
stuff that I had absolutely no interest in, and I was tired and just
wanted to sleep. So, me being me, just told her to shut up. I had
no idea what my sister was doing near me in bed. Plus, I was
thirsty and couldn’t get up for a drink. My other sisters, yes there
were more than one, and my mom were there also, and they were
all elated that I had spoken. That was my first clue that something
was amiss, because normally I won’t shut up. A young adult
woman then came in to the room; when told what I had said, she
seemed genuinely happy. Shortly thereafter an adult male was
told of my utterances and he seemed relieved. I thought, What the
hell is going on? I couldn’t understand why everyone was so
happy about what I had said. Speaking of everyone, who were all
these people? What was my Mom doing here, and why didn’t she
frown upon me for using the “f” word? What were all my sisters
doing here?
I don’t really know what happened next or how much time
elapsed before it happened. I just remember lying in bed and
hearing my brother-in-law tell me I was in a bike (bicycle)
accident. I thought, Gee, must have been a doozy.” I didn’t
quite get the gravity of the situation. I didn’t even realize
where I was.
