Rick dozed off beside Lesley while she was still unconscious but was aware that Rick was there because she started to regain consciousness and later moved her hand in his when he fell asleep
" R-Rick please go on home and rest... I'm alright.." Lesley winced when she tried pushing to sit up alittle bit " Rick please stop worrying so much about me... I'm not going anywhere not anytime soon"
" Welcome back beautiful.... You really scared me, you know that... You gotta stop scaring me like that.... I really thought something was wrong" Rick replied and held Lesley's hand
" Rick I'm alright you need to go on home and get some sleep." Lesley tried to slightly smiled. " You have to take better care of yourself until we take Riley home"
" I beg your pardon... Who's Riley?" Rick replied
" Can you help me sit up alittle bit more?" Lesley paused but winced while Rick helped her sit up alittle more than she continued " Rick all that time when you were gone and I had to face that you were.... You were never gonna come home again, it just... It just about killed me inside that I had to face that my husband was gone especially because you are everything to me and.... Finding out that I was pregnant again and you weren't there... Rick I didn't think I could do it again not without you.... But later on, I decided to keep him even with the possible risks to me because I thought I could still try even with you gone.... Finding out it was a boy it hurt Rick because I knew that you wanted a son and before you suddenly came back to me... to us, I thought of how you were never gonna have the chance to know your son it broke my heart but.... I thought that I could give back to you and that's what I am doing even with you being here where you belong...." Lesley looked up at Rick with a small smile
" You were gonna name him after me...?"
" Riley Jacobs Webber after you and Jessie... I thought it would be nice because Jessie had always been so wonderful to me and has always been like a mother in my life and then you.... You are the man I fell in love with all that time ago and in spite of all the problems and the heartache we caused to each other, Rick I will always love you!" Lesley leaned over towards Rick.
" And I Lesley Webber will always love you... You're the only other woman I'll ever wanna be with now and in the future" Rick made it clear and leaned over to give Lesley a kiss
Dana had just begun her rounds as she stopped by Lesley's room in maternity and looked over her vitals but noticed Lesley wasn't responding to the antibiotics that she and Dr. Gonzales had her on when she was first admitted after the night the baby was born and her blood labs showed that she did develop DIC.
" Lesley... how are you feeling?" Dana asked.
" I've had and have seen better days... still weaker than I was before, but I'm hanging in there the best I can. Is something wrong?" Lesley looked between Rick and Dana
" When you were brought in your pressure was lower than what it normally would have been had you delivered when you were brought in. We were able to stabilize and remove the placenta but not before you suffered a number eclamptic seizures that cause a tare during the placenta removal procedure and later caused a secondary infection and we then had to get you into surgery twice and Monica and I had to bring Dr Dante in following your last eclamptic seizure that caused bleeding to the brain... and looking at your labs and blood work, you have not responded to the antibiotics that we put you on for the infection and you have further internal bleeding in spite of transfusing you before and after surgery..." Dana explained the best of the situation as she could
" I knew it was a risk this time around especially after things went when I was pregnant with the girls and you had warned me of these potential complications that were involved. Of course I wanted to take the chance at the time."
