about this story

Never in my medical experience, had I ever had an encounter like this one. I still remember the exact day. It was on a cold, snowy, Wednesday, at around 5:54 pm. It was a busy day, pure usual, nothing I couldn't handle. That was until this man walked in limping. My first thoughts were, broken leg, sprain, ACL tear? But, he came close and I took a good long look at him. He had blood shot eyes, and a runny nose. He had blood gushing out his side, and what looked like a bone sticking through his shoulder. I held in my gasp, and got medical assistance right away. We laid him down on the stretcher and rushed him to the ER. The most weird thing was him screaming, "Stop! PLEASE! I'm sorry! I know, I shouldn't have ignored the Trespassing sign, Im sorry!" I thought, maybe he was mentally insane. He was going unresponsive and then would be alive, and screaming, and it kept going back and forth. When he was screaming he would talk about some creepy clown rug, or something about trespassing. Most doctors there that night thought it was flash backs. But, this man seemed genuinely scared for his life. But the craziest part of this night was when I went to get something, I don't remember exactly. But, I came back and he was gone. No trace of him anywhere. And the scariest part was all the doctors in the room helping him when I left were gone too. None of them ever seen again. Now the reason I'm telling you this story is because today when I was walking around downtown, I saw a very familiar face. And I can't stop thinking about it, because I think it was HIM.
