  In a large ballroom in Houston Texas, two men sit across from each other on a large stage. There is a large monitor between them and a crowd of jeering people behind them, they both are playing the game Street Fighter 6 on the largest stage Texas has to offer. The game comes down to the very last round but a Dallas native under the the gamer name of Coosco clutches out a close set to move on in the tournament.  They are both at a tournament called Texas Showdown, held in Houston, Texas every year.

Death was something we would talk about, but only in conversations about the future. I never thought about what it would be like to experience a loved one almost dying.  The drive to the hospital was one of the most harrowing of my life.

I walked past them and made my way past a secure door where I found the person I was looking for.  My sister was on...
