Shake My Brother softly at first, then harder.
He doesn't open his eyes.
can't wake him.
His skin is gray.
He's barely breathing, and there's a weird rattling noise in his chest when he tries.
I notice a pill bottle on his nightstand.
Totally empty.
What do I do?
What do I do?
I grab my phone, call 911. "Help!
I think my brother took too many pills.
I think he's dying!"
The lady asks me some questions.
I sputter nonanswers.
She says the ambulance is on the way.
But what if he needs help sooner?
What happened in this scene?
