00:00 Is my dad in a lot of pain?
00:04 No. He is on very strong narcotics.
00:08 Why don't you want to see him?
00:12 His residual limb is heavily bandaged,
00:16 so you won't be able to see any blood
00:20 or tissue or bones.
00:24 I'm not afraid of that.
00:29 Okay.
00:32 I was kicking the back of the seat,
00:49 the driver's seat, which my dad hates.
00:53 He missed my choir concert, which made me mad.
00:57 So I kicked his seat.
01:00 And he told me to stop, but I kept kicking and kicking.
01:05 And then he turned around, told me to cut it out.
01:10 And then I heard Mom scream,
01:14 and there were sirens, and then we were here.
01:19 He's going to hate me because I'm selfish and stupid,
01:23 and it was all my fault.
01:27 It was my fault.
01:39 My brother Steve died.
01:43 But it was Steve's fault, too.
01:49 It was his idea to hide on the roof of the train.
01:54 He fell. He broke his neck.
02:02 Your dad took his eyes off the road,
02:09 and a car ran a red light, and the airbags didn't deploy.
02:13 Those things are not your fault.
02:17 And even if it were,
02:22 your parents would probably still love you
02:26 because of your shared experience in combination
02:29 with the parental bonding hormone oxytocin.
02:33 Although, in my case, it wasn't enough.
02:43 My parents didn't like me.
02:47 I'm sorry about your brother,
02:51 and your parents, and your baby.
02:56 You've had a lot of bad things happen to you.
03:01 I've had a lot of good things happen, too.
03:10 Okay. I want to go see my dad.
03:15 Ella?
03:24 I need a rapid response team.
03:27 Stat! She's bleeding in her chest!
03:31 She's bleeding in her chest!
03:34 (dramatic music)
