I thought I knew where my life was going. Which goes to show that we don’t know
anything. I had the perfect life. A husband who loved me, getting the promotion
as the head of our cardiopulmonary department, and a life plan that gave me
purpose. Then with one fail swoop, everything was destroyed. Finding your sister in bed with the love of
your life puts things in a different perspective. Discovering that she’s stealing your dream
makes you question every thought you’ve ever had.
I lost everything except my medical career. The one place where my life wasn’t falling
apart around me. Until it was. Dr. Eric James was our head of ER physician,
and maybe if I hadn’t had a life plan I’d never have noticed him in the way a
woman discovers a man. Maybe I’d never
known what passion was before him. I
came to him in a moment of weakness, and he mended a part of me I thought was
broken forever. Life has a way of
screwing up even the best things that have ever happened to you.
Trauma. When reality
crashes into a fantasy, sometimes it’s hard to catch your breath. I knew the right thing to do but giving up
when a person’s life was in my hands went against everything I was taught. Love doesn’t follow the right rules. Unlike a medical emergency, there is no plan
for survival. What I needed was a
prescription for love that wouldn’t destroy the tiny part left of me still
fighting to live.
