Petra on ventilator
Petra woke up and realized that she was in the hospital. Fear arose in her heart, because she could not move due to paralysis. Her lungs could no longer cope on their own, so doctors immediately connected her to a ventilator.
She could feel a long, flexible breathing tube being inserted all the way to her lungs. A nurse carefully placed a clear plastic breathing tube holder over her face. Additionally, four sensors were neatly attached to Petra's forehead to accurately monitor her vitals.
Petra can only observe what is happening around her, which causes her incredible fear. She is completely dependent on the medical devices to which she is connected, because without them her life could end at any moment.
Thus, Petra found herself in a state where she was deprived of the ability to move, speak or breathe on her own, and what was worse, she could not understand the reason for this. When her sister came to her, who, as it turned out, had no intention of helping, Petra realized that it was the sister who injected her with the paralyzing agent.
Despite her condition, Petra felt a slight return of mobility, but the nurse quickly administered a new dose of medication. As a result, Petra lost the ability to react and fell asleep.
Faced with an unexpected betrayal by the person closest to her, Petra experienced acute shock and despair. In her immobile state, when her life was supported only by an artificial respiration apparatus, Petra's possibilities for any actions were extremely limited.
She could only hope for help from outsiders and try to convey messages without words, for example by blinking her eyes. However, because other medical personnel did not pay attention to her signals, Petra's chances of survival seemed extremely small.
The paralyzed woman has been motionless in a hospital bed for a long time, able only to observe and listen to the continuous hum of medical devices. The fear of the noise of the ventilator filled her, but she was aware that it was this ventilator that was keeping her alive.
The sister took Petra to her home, where she will continue to be paralyzed and on a ventilator.
Sooner or later, Petra will have to undergo a tracheostomy so that she can be permanently connected to a ventilator. Perhaps Petra will find a way to communicate with others and reveal the truth about her sister's betrayal...
