Feeling that something was wrong, Megan picked up her phone to dial G.G., but she had trouble focusing on the screen. Turning to put the glass down on the table next to the swing she lost her balance. This caused her to drop the glass to the floor making it shatter. Megan tried to stop the swing from moving, but overcompensated falling to the floor. Her phone flew from her hand across the porch out of reach.
Megan didn’t know who was trying to kill her now, but was glad that Sally had a family that could take care of her in case she didn’t recover from whatever had caused this. Megan slipped into unconsciousness; her last thoughts about her daughter.
--------------
Hours later in the hospital again, family and friends huddled around Megan as she lay in the bed comatose. The doctor came in to deliver the verdict about her condition.
“She is in a coma and may not recover from this. We tested the tea that she was drinking and found that it had large amounts of wild mushrooms ground up in it. A small portion would have made her violently ill, but since she ingested such a large amount, we can only hope that she will respond to the medications that we are giving her. There is no possible way that it was done accidently, it was an attempt to poison her. Whether the person was trying to kill her, or simply cause her extreme pain is a minor distinction. We won’t know unless the police are able to find who did this to her.”
Mark slid down the wall, his face white as a sheet. This is what had happened to his mother, she had gone into an unexplained coma and a few days later, she was dead.
“G.G., my mom was murdered. Now the same person is trying to kill Megan. Who would do that to people that I love?” Mark asked, resting his head in his hands.
