"Oh my god! Call an ambulance!"

Age: 10 (11 on 9/20)
Reason for hospitalization: car crash
Current condition: coma

~earlier~

Huey Freeman had just finished his first day of junior high, his thoughts focused on what he'd tell his granddad when he got back. J. Edger Hoover Junior High was just as bad as the elementary school, if not worst. The books where out-dated and the teachers were highly unqualified for their jobs. Because of this, he didn't see the SUV until it was too late.

The vehicle collided with him head on, sending him flying several feet, skidding across the ass-fault. In no time (lie) the paramedics were on the scene, carefully lifting the boy onto a stretcher and into the ambulance. With sirens blaring, they rushed to the hospital.

~o~o~

Robert Freeman did not expect the call he received when his grandson didn't come home on time, nor did he expect to see him in the state he was in. lying in the hospital bed, with his head bandaged, his eyes closed and tubes and cords connecting him to every device in the room, was Huey. His breathing was shallow, the tubes in his nose sending air to his lungs. As the old man stood there, nearly in tears, the doctor came by.

"Is he going to be ok…?" he asked, a bit of a hopeful plea in his voice.

"It's up to him," she sighed, giving the man a sorrow filled look. "He had quite an accident, Mr. Freeman… the best estimate I have for you of when he'll wake, is about a year."

Mr. Freeman sighed, looking back at his broken grandson. 'Don't you give up on me, boy… I refuse to see you die like this…'

~months later~

It was well into December. Children running around in the fresh layer of snow, adults enjoying a hot cup of cocoa all while getting ready for Christmas shopping. Life was moving along as it does, and it definitely will have its way. Sunlight filtered mildly into a room, where the resting form began to stir. Slowly, red brown eyes opened slightly, and then shut tightly against the glare of the light.

'Where…?' he tried again, blinking a few times before seeing that he was in a hospital. Scanning the room, he picked up on the decorations, the get well soon cards (most likely from granddad), and the snow steadily falling outside. 'Winter…. Heh, must've gotten him really mad this time…' he looked at the calendar by his bed, noticing the date he sighed. 'At least I won't be spending Christmas with himthis year…' with another heavy sigh, he rolled back onto his back and fell back to sleep.

Little did he know, life had changes in mind just for him.
