Daddy, Daddy get up. Daddy please get up. I don’t understand, please daddy get up! Oh no. You can’t get up daddy can you? You can’t feel your legs can you daddy? Or your arms or your face. You are helpless daddy aren’t you? You are getting worse and worse. I can see it in your face daddy. Now you’re making strange noises. You are not saying words, just noises. Daddy, you’re scaring me. I’m only 12 daddy I don’t know what to do. Mommy never told me what to do when this happens. Do I just stand here and watch you die daddy? No no, I can’t do that. I am going to save you daddy. Drink this daddy; you need to get this in you. Oh daddy don’t push me away. Please don’t’ push me away. Andrew Alex! Andrew Alex! Oh please daddy drink this. I know you don’t understand but please drink this. Please just let me help you. That’s good daddy. Drink more daddy more. Andrew Alex! No daddy don’t close your eyes, you have to stay awake. Stay awake for me daddy. I am not going to let you leave me daddy. You’re not leaving me. Please keep drinking daddy keep drinking. That’s good. You have almost drank all of it.
