Alessa's Germany Experience, Day 13 - The View

Alessa's room is sterile. She shares the room with another RSD coma patient. The only sounds you hear are from the monitors and pumps.

Then you look out the window and you stare in amazement. The view is breathtaking. The hospital is located on the top of a high hill that overlooks Saarbruecken. You can see the whole city from the hospital windows. It's a city surrounded by hills and trees. France is just beyond the hills. In the far distance, you can actually see a village in France.

For me, the view from Alessa's window is a sign of hope. Her room is sterile and white. Then you look out the window and you see all the colors and beauty of nature. Just as nature is renewed each spring, Alessa will be renewed when she wakes up.
