Upside-down world.
Life was absolutely fantastic until this virus came and turned our world upside down."

ICU delirium.
Feel my presence
Feel my presence.
Feel my presence.
I listened to his favourite song on the way to the hospital and it got me in such a good mood, knowing I would be so close to him. I was very hopeful that he would feel my presence there and that I would feel his.
Unfortunately he was still in a coma by the time I went for my scan.
It was a very surreal experience just to be separated by one floor in the hospital."
Peace of mind.
The person we know.
The person we know.
Though he doesn’t remember a lot of that visit, that is the turning point for him. That was the point where he was able to come back to us as the person we know."
So much to live for
Waking up.
So much to live for.
It's not up to me.

A big realization.
A big realization.
But the unknown actually brings feelings for the relationships to a very high level. My wife keeps on remembering, like the bible; ‘on day 22, this is what happened.’
And I realized that actually, this revisiting to every detail is because you want to go back to those feelings and emotions. You don’t experience those peaks in everyday life.
This was a big realization for me and something very special. The people close to me still need me there and I should take more responsibility for my life."
