Sharing Love: My Mother is a Widow

Help the accident victim

A bright morning as bright as Mira and her three children. Today they are going to a new school. Mira is very busy because she has to take care of 3 children who simultaneously have to change schools.

Mira took care of the move of her three children until noon. He was tired and wanted to go to the store immediately. But suddenly the taxi he was riding stopped suddenly.

" What's wrong sir?" ask Mira.

" It looks like there's an accident ahead" replied the driver.

" I'm down for a while to see it, please wait a minute sir," said Mira.

" Good ma'am," said the driver.

Mira rushed down. In front of a lot of people. And they seemed to be looking for a vehicle to help get the man to the hospital.

" I have a taxi please. I'll help you get to the hospital" Mira said.

" all right. We lift up equally" said one of his helpers.

They put the man in Mira's cab.

" Please take you to the hospital. I'll take you, " said the helper.

Arriving at the hospital, he was immediately taken to the ER. The helper went away because there was important business. Mira takes care of the victim alone. Mira doesn't know who she is and how to contact her family.

Meanwhile, the doctor asked about his family members.

" You're a patient's family?" ask doctor.

" No. Just friends," Mira replied nervously.

" Please call his family" the doctor ordered.

" I'm sorry doc, I don't know where his family doesn't know the number to call either. Actually I just happened to pass by when the accident happened and drove him here," Mira replied honestly." How's it going Doc?"

" The patient loses a lot of blood and must get a blood transfusion immediately. The patient also has to undergo several surgeries. If the patient is not operated on immediately, we do not know whether the patient can still survive or not" the doctor replied, explaining.

" Should it be his family, Doc?"

" yes. If there is a family there is a possibility that there is blood that matches the patient. The operation also requires the signature of his family. But if you look at the state of the patient, it seems like you can't wait anymore. It has to be done quickly" said the doctor.

Mira can't think too long. It's a life. Finally, Mira made a bet.

" Dok, maybe my blood can match the patient, I'm willing to donate my blood. And also can I sign the letter and how much does the operation cost?" mira said somewhat scared.

" Of course. Please come with the nurse for a blood test. The operating cost is quite expensive around 50 million. How is it still ready for signature?"

" Yes doc. I'll keep signing the letter,"

Mira signed the letter even though she only brought 10 million which was just enough to pay the down payment. After negotiating with the officer and leaving his ID card as collateral.

Mira also donated her blood which happened to match the patient's. Mira underwent a direct donor to the patient while the patient underwent surgery.

After all, Mira looked tired. But his tiredness paid off. The patient's life can be saved, only now the patient is still unconscious in the hospital room.

Mira remembered her three children who had come home. She called Fara to pick up the kids. She also asks Fara to bring her 30 million before she picks up her children. Fara didn't ask her brother much what money was used for. Because if her brother needs it means that it's more important than her boutique.

" Mad Mira, sorry that the road was a bit jammed," said Fara was a bit breathless because he came half-run.

" It's okay Fara. Later sister story after arriving home. Big brother go first," said Mira looking rushed.

Fara was curious but her brother had promised to tell her later. Fara then went to pick up her sister's children.

While Mira immediately redeemed her ID card by paying off the operating costs of the person she helped. Finally he breathed with relief. He saved one life. Even if he had bet that if the operation had failed, he would have been sued by the patient's family.

It's all over. He immediately went home and could not see the person he was helping. He did not realize that the patient's family had arrived at the hospital after hearing from the police station about the accident.

" How is my husband a doctor?" ask the woman named Santy to one of the doctors.

" Are you a patient's family?" ask doctor.

" Right doc. I am his wife" answered Santy.

" The patient has passed his critical period. Now it's just waiting for the patient to regain consciousness" the doctor said.

" When can my husband regain consciousness" asked Santy.

" It could be an hour, two hours, maybe even a day. It depends on the patient's own condition" the doctor says again." Excuse me first, there are still other patients waiting."

" Thank you doctor."

Mira's back home. She cleans herself up first before she meets her three children and Fara.

" Fara, thank you for taking care of the kids. Have they eaten?" ask Mira.

" It's mbak. Now they are taking a nap. Ma'am, Mira looks lethargic and pale, is Mira sick?" ask Fara later.

" I wasn't sick, I just donated my blood" Mira replied.

" Blood donation?"

" Yes, I helped someone who needed blood. It just so happens that his blood is the same as mine."

" So, that money was for that guy too?"

" Right, Fara. That person should be operated on immediately" Mira replied.

Mira told Fara everything. Starting from an accident on the road until he had to take some of the money he should have used to open the boutique of his dreams. Perhaps this was also God's will, which he had to live. But Mira never regretted saving a life.

Fara was just stunned to see her brother sacrifice his dream in order to save someone's life. Not everyone can be like their brother.

" Mr Mira, you should eat a healthy and nutritious diet to restore the health of Mira. Fara will prepare. Ma'am Mira just wait here first, a moment must be ready," said Fara.

Fara rushes to make Mira a glass of milk and to make her a cow's eye egg. After eating, Fara asked her brother to immediately rest a lot so that his body can be healthy again.

Mira just according to her sister's words. Mira asks her sister to come home soon so that her husband is not confused to look for her and Fara Still has to prepare dinner for her husband as well.

After Fara left, Mira was pensive. The button opening plan now can only be done simply. He also had to give an explanation to Raka's doctor as his investor. Mira hopes Raka's doctor will understand her current decision. Prioritizing the life of someone in front of us that we should be able to help.
