"You were not responsive,

"You were not responsive, lying on a bed of sheets covered with blood." A young woman crashes her car, is airlifted to the hospital, and goes on life support. Her parents continue her 10-year-old diary during her stay in intensive care. Years later it's all posted to the web.

It's long, and it's not new, but it hadn't been posted here before and I found it to be quite powerful. A tragic predecessor to the group blog. (The site is in the process of moving, so there are a few dead links; the cast of characters is still here, for example.)

Creepy, or... beautiful?

It's weird the way the father writes about her, seeing as he's a doctor. He gets all technical.

I hate to spoil it, but there really is a happy ending to it all.
