Minutes

She arrives in the new hopsital at 3am on Sundau morning. We arrive a little earlier and can see through a window how she is carried out of the emergency car. It looks like they move her without urgency, it gives hope but we hear later that this was her worst moment and death was closer then life.

Every minute we count and together with my oldest sister we cry and call Evelyn a million times telling her she can do this, somehow this gives hope. Once she is installed we can still watch her, the doctors have no hope, and tell me nothing positive. "Between black and white, she is on the black side"

I leave the hospital at 4am to go to Stefaan, one of my best friends living at 500 m from the hospital. My sister stays with Ben, her partner in the hospital in the waiting room. My God, with this kind of support, from friends, and especially from my 2 sisters, Evelyn has to leave out of this.
