Dr-"Tamara has pulled through, she's still in her coma but her brain bleed has stopped"
Lucy started to breakdown, from all her emotions going through her body.
L-"can I go see her"
Dr-"yes"
Tim and Lucy went to Tamara's room and sat down next to her bed. Lucy was holding Tamara's hand and singing to her. Tim's phone started ringing so he stepped out of the room.
T-"Hello this is Tim Bradford speaking"
Person on the phone-"I know who you are, I also know that you've stepped out of the hospital room that you girlfriends, puppy as you have called her in the past, lies in a coma, would you like both of them to be in comas?"
T-"no, who is this"
Person on the phone-"you know who this is, you also might want to check on Lucy and Tamara"
Tim heard Lucy scream and rushed into the room.
T-"Lucy you ok"
L-"Y-yeah it's just I saw someone in the window, but we're on the 5th floor"
T-"ok, umm"
L-"anyways who called you"
T-"I actually don't know"
L-"well what did they say"
T-"doesn't matter right now"
Tim's phone started ringing again, but this time it was Angela.
A-"hey how's Tam doing"
T-"she's in a coma but her brain bleed has stopped"
A-"that's so good, I'm on my way now, I need to figure out a way to explain to Jack what he caused by jumping off of the top bunk onto her head"
T-"yeah, how's his head"
A-"good, it's not deep and doesn't need stitches or anything"
T-"good"
A-"what room are you guys in I'm at the hospital now"
T-"we're in room 306"
A-"thank you"
Tim hung up on the phone and looked at Lucy.
T-"Luce, come here"
Lucy went to him and started crying in his arms
L-"if I had of just told you when you had asked in the past then she wouldn't have gone into the kids room not to hear us, then Jack wouldn't have jumped onto her head and she wouldn't have ended up in a coma. I caused this, I'm the reason why the one person who is like a daughter to me is like this, and could die"
T-"Lucy it's not just your fault calm down, I could have not turned it into an argument, then she wouldn't have gone into the kids room"
Lucy looked up and Tim with an expression as if to say that he was lying. Lucy then buried her head into Tim's chest and started crying again. After a little bit Angela had gotten to Tamara's room.
A-"is she asleep"
Angela pointed at Lucy
T-"Looks like she has gone to sleep, she's only slept 3 hours, and her body's still recovering from her fall last night"
A-"Yeah, hey look if you want to take her back to the holiday house so she can sleep I'll be happy to sit here and watch Tamara"
T-"that's something that she needs but she won't let me, she'll probably sleep here tonight"
A-"true"
Angela and Tim just ended up sitting there in silence until Tim spoke up
T-"did any of the younger kids see Tamara"
A-"yeah Jack, and he asked me as I was about to leave what happened to her so I told him when I get back to the holiday house I'll tell him so now I need to figure out how to explain to my 4 year old that he almost made someone die"
(I'm saying 4 year old because I don't know how old he'll be)
T-"that's hard, we got told that her brain bleed has stopped and that now we just have to wait for her to come out of her coma, which they apparently will decide when it's fit for her"
A-"ok"
They sat in silence again for an hour until Lucy woke up
L-"is she awake yet"
Lucy looked up at Tim
T-"not yet baby but she will wake up"
L-"this is still all my fault"
Lucy got up off of Tim's lap and went to the bathroom.
A-"why does she thinks it's her fault"
T-"because she said that if she had told me about her relationship with John earlier then I wouldn't have found out on the holiday and I wouldn't have gotten mad, so Tamara wouldn't have gone into the kids room so she didn't hear Lucy and I arguing"
A-"when she comes out I'm just gonna tell her it was my fault, I didn't teach my kid not to jump onto people"
T-"but it's no one's fault, it was a freak accident, when we explained to the doctor what happened he said that it's was probably cause by an underlying condition"
A-"do they know what condition"
T-"no"
Tim and Angela sat in silence for another 10 minutes. Then Angela spoke up
A-"do you want to check on Luce she's been in their for a while"
T-"I will"
Tim got up and walked to the bathroom. He knocked on the door.
T-"hey Luce, everything ok in there"
There was no response
T-"Lucy I'm coming in"
He opened the bathroom door and saw Lucy passed out on the floor, there was vomit with blood in the toilet.
T-"ANGELA CALL ONE OF THE DOCTORS, LUCYS UNCONSCIOUS ON THE FLOOR"
Angela ran and got one of the doctors and they rushed into the room to Lucy. They checked her pulse and breathing. Her pulse was weak and she was taking only 4-5 breaths per minute.
Dr1-"grab a gurney"
The other doctor grabbed the gurney and both doctors lifted Lucy onto the gurney. They rushed her to a room and started doing tests on her. Tim just sat in the chair with his head in his hands. He was thinking how he could lose all 3 of his special people at any moment now (3 because, tam, Lucy and the baby Lucy's pregnant with). Angela left the hospital and went to the holiday house. A doctor came into Tim to talk to him
Dr-"Lucy is also now in a coma, she had a seizure as a result of her concussion"
Tim got worried then realised he recognised the voice but couldn't pin point it.
T-"thank you um, is it possible for both of them to be in the same room so I can be with both of them"
Dr-"of course"
The doctor went and talked to the nurses who figured it out and they both got moved into a room together. At this point in the day it was already 8pm and Tim only had 2 hours of sleep so he laid down on the couch next to Lucy's bed. After an hour he still couldn't go to sleep as he couldn't get the fact he recognised the doctors voice when the doctor was from a foreign country, and when Lucy was in the emergency room it was at a different hospital. After a little bit of time later, Tim realised something, the doctor was the person who had called him and asked if he wants both Tam and Lucy in a coma. Tim got up and ran out of the room to the nurses station.
Nurse-"Is everything ok"
T-"Um, no, the doctor that was helping my girlfriend had called me earlier before my girlfriend passed out and asked me if I wanted both my girlfriend and daughter in a coma"
Nurse-"and what was the doctor name"
T-"Dr Zoro"
Nurse-"we don't have a Dr Zoro"
Tim's face had a worried look.
Nurse-"I'm gonna call the police for you and I'm gonna check on your girlfriend to see if she actually needs to be in a coma"
The nurse went to check on Lucy and came back.
Nurse-"good news but also not good news, Lucy doesn't need to be in a coma and I have other nurses getting her out of the coma, I also checked on your daughter for you and she's ready to come out of her coma, but that means that the doctor who put her in it was the person on the phone, I've called the police and they should be coming, also I understand that you guys aren't from here, so they probably won't be able to do anything"
T-"I understand"
Tim walked into see Lucy and Tamara. They were both still asleep. After a little bit the woke up. Tim talked to them and they all decided that they should go back to America and go to the hospital in America instead of staying at a foreign hospital. They talked to the nurse and the nurse organised a plane with medical staff to take them back to America (everyone else went back too). Tamara and Lucy had to stay in hospital in America for 2 weeks.
