Mom Cannot Sleep So Doctor Tells Her To Stop Wearing Green

She couldn’t see straight as she lay in her hospital bed, her arms covered in bandages. She had injuries on her face and neck and her stomach was aching.

She had no clue what was happening to her. How did their trip turn into this? Her son’s eyes were puffy and red as he sat next to her bed. When she learned what was wrong with her, she couldn’t stop the tears from rolling down her cheeks.

Single Mom

Matilda Stockholm loved living in Seattle. She was a 39-year-old mom to her son, Bret. Bret has just aced his SAT exams.

Matilda was so proud of Bret. That was why she decided to book a flight to the Caribbean. She was a single mom, and she was beyond proud of the man Bret had become.

Over-Worked

Matilda was dedicated to her work. After all, it put food on their table every night. But for years, it felt like she had allowed her job to swallow her whole. She was in need of a vacation.

She was grateful that celebrating her son’s achievements would give her a break from work. But she never could have guessed how much the trip would change her life.

In Aruba

She arranged their flight for the day after Bret’s last day of high school. In the blink of an eye, they were in Aruba with their luggage and their sun hats.

A week passed, and Matilda and Bret were enjoying every moment of their vacation. Their second week there started well, but as the first day came to a close, trouble popped up.

Sudden Pain

Matilda was relaxing on the beach as the setting sun’s gaze washed over her. But all of a sudden, pain pulsed through her body. She cried out in pain and sat up, holding her stomach.

The pain shot through her again, and she resisted the urge to scream. What on earth was happening to her? She knew she had to go back to her room.
