Chapter 53: Gregoris @ 1.9x nhs Greg kept rereading the DNR order on a tablet. He hadn’t slept since it happened. He pleaded. He vowed his life to Hermes, twice over. Nothing could be done, the DNR was ironclad. She was well of mind when she wrote it at eighteen. Eighteen! Greg laughed hysterically. Deciding on your life at such a young age. What a ridiculous thing. He read the DNR order. She had a few files attached. There was a video to her mom. She watched it across the room, and her reaction couldn’t have been anything but the breakdown Greg witnessed. And there was another attachment, available now that the lawyer had activated the DNR order. Galene appeared, from before he ever met her, younger, if that was even possible. “Video to whoever I may love. This file is sent on a dead-woman’s switch. If I fail to stop it with a password, it gets sent automatically. It means I’m dead, or worse, incapacitated. I don’t know your name but if you are on the receiving end, this one’s definitely meant for you. I’m filming this at the age of 18, but I know that it will be the same for me no matter how many years pass by. This is for you, future loved one, whom I haven’t even met yet at this point. I know myself, and I know that I never want to go through what my father has gone through. So I have a DNR order on me. In case something bad happens, of course I want the doctors to try and heal me, I’m neither crazy nor suicidal. But if all hope is lost, I don’t want to become like my dad, a living-dead person on a gurney with machines pumping blood in my veins and air in my lungs. In that case, I wish to pull the plug. And I need you to respect that. No blaming yourself. That’s all. Oh, and in case I’ve been a jerk like I always am and I haven’t said it enough, here it is: I love you.” Greg broke down. Losing Galene, losing the baby. It was too much. He pulled the plug on the love of his life and then flew straight to Japan.
