Mark of the destiny

"W-whenever I see a child in suffering, in pain, in tears- it reminds of my baby.. He died because of m-me I was being an irresponsible, heartless mother who left her sick child into the care of the so-called doctors believing he was in safe hands and went to s-sit for the viva in front of the medical council to save my career."

"Maybe if I had not left him, he would have been alive. Safe. Happy. By my side. B-But I"
