Second Chance - Hiding the Truth

The alarm went off. Another day dawned. The house was eerily quiet without Dean and Rosa around. I sat up and stared into space contemplating on what had happened. I could have lost my son yesterday. Thank goodness his boyfriend knew what to do or this may have been a completely different story. You soend your whole life looking after and protecting your chidren, but life can be a right bitch sometimes. Life will test you through every angle, no matter how much you try to prevent it. But you know what hurts the most? Knowing that my own son almost died because of me yesterday. I'm the reason he has diabetes. I'm the one who gave it to him. And the worst thing is. I can't make it go away. I laid there for a few moments before turing to look at the clock. Better get ready.
