She won't hit him. It's not in her to do. Neither is showing frailty or feelings of helplessness but she knows she needs to. Some deep down part of her knows it's okay to show how broken she feels. She continues holding him, one hand moving to run through his hair.
"I'm afraid, Raleigh. I'm afraid this is permanent. Forever. I'm afraid this won't right itself ever and what's worse is there's a small part of me that's given up hoping that I'll wake up fine one day." Her voice is steady at first, a quiver at the end creeping in despite her efforts to keep it out.
