The Winner

You're okay. Stay with me. You're going to be alright. Keep your eyes open. Keep looking at me. That's the way. We're here to help you. Squeeze my hand if you can. Focus on the sound of my voice. You're very strong, you know that? Keep looking at me. Open those eyes. You have such beautiful brown eyes, you know that? I've seen a photo of your Mum. They look just like hers. Now if you can feel that pressure on your leg, that's just us, okay? There's a bit of blood but you're going to be fine. We're getting you to a hospital now. Do you think you could talk to me? What's your favourite colour? Blue? Black? Hey, don't fall asleep on me. You should be wide awake. Don't make me pinch you. We're almost there. You fought a brave battle just then. And you know what? You're a winner. I won't let you lose now.
