Bella is in the room. She is still technically dead as the doctors stood around her

"Chief, I know the hypothermia is protective to her vital organs but how much longer do you think we can go on like this?" Bailey asked

"I've seen people last as long as four hours." Richard said

" Yeah, but... " bailey said

"No, this is not...this is Bella Karev . This is my..."
richard said

"We're all on the same side here, Chief." Burke said

"Sir." Bailey said

"Her body temp is at 86 degrees. She's not dead until she's warm and dead. We need to warm her up to 98.6 and start her heart." Richard said

"Yes, sir. Richard: Let's do a gastric lavage with warm fluids." Bailey said as Addison gets paged

"Addison." Bailey said

"I have to go it's, uh, my Jane Doe." Addison said

"Just...they're waiting for you so...whatever you choose to say will..." Bailey said as addison nodded. She knew Derek, Hannah, Meredith as well as the rest of the interns were sitting out in the hall waiting for news on bella. Addison felt awful for all that had happened with Bella and for Hannah. She knew it was her daughters best friend

Addison leaves Bella's room and Derek is waiting in the hall

" Tell me!" Derek said

" Her temps still only 86. There's still no heartbeat. Were hoping once she warms up... " Addison said

"I wanna go in there." Derek said

"No."

" There's a risk of brain damage. I need to go in there. It's Bella " Derek said

"Derek, you can't. Not for Bella, not for anybody. You're in no shape. " Addison said as she looked to Hannah

"Hannah" she said as she looked to the young intern. Her face was red and blotchy with crying

"Mom" Hannah said as addison felt her heart break. She wanted to take away her daughters pain

Addison walks through the doorway to where the interns are standing

"It's not good." Addison asked

"Is she still cyanotic? What was her initial temp? What is taking so long?" Meredith asked. She was so worried over her friend

"Dr. Grey! It's not good. They're doing everything they can. You should maybe...prepare yourselves. I have to go, my Jane Doe's awake." Addison said

"I'm coming with you. Mer, you'll let us know?" Alex said as he walked off with addison

"Alex she's your sister" Meredith said

"I know I just...I can't" he said

"Prepare ourselves? That's what we tell the families before we call time of death." Meredith said
