Melanie disappears.

On 3^rd of July 2010 my Father slammed the door and left us.
He just left Mum and me all alone.
He said he needed to find himself or something.
Either way I was left without a Dad.

Soon after my 11^th birthday I woke up screaming.
The little pinkie finger on my left hand was gone.
There wasn’t any blood and it didn’t hurt. It was just gone.
I don’t even know what caused it.
My mum wrapped my hand in cloth.
She said I could stay home from school.
I guess we both hoped it would somehow grow back.
It didn’t. In fact the next finger disappear while I was resting.
A few hours later my whole left hand was gone.
Mum called the Doctors and they called it a mystery.
They said they would check later to see if it got worse.
Oh it sure got worse. My whole arm disappeared.
 The next morning I woke up with no feet.
Both feet just slowly vanished right before my eyes.
Over the next couple of days my whole body went.
I was just a head on a pillow. It was weird but
I wasn’t frightened. I was just curious.
Outside I could hear Dad’s voice.
He heard about what had happened  and
came back to see for himself.
He saw my head on the pillow and started to cry.
I guess I wasn’t much of a Father but I loved you very  much.
His tears dropped on the bed and my body started to appear again.
First my torso then my legs and finally my arms.
He gave me a hug and we talked for hours.
He said he didn’t find himself but he missed me.
