The rookie Groupchat

Yikes Tim Pt 3

Tim Bradford:
Had to report in. I didn't want to leave, but there's a mission today and they need me to lead it. I didn't have a choice.

Angela Lopez:
Damn. How's Lucy?

Tim Bradford:
Still bad. 104.1 this morning. She was shivering and completely out of it. Wouldn't even open her eyes when I left.

Aaron Thorsen:
Man, that's dangerously high.

John Nolan:
She needs to be in a hospital.

Tim Bradford:
Tamara's with her. I briefed her on everything. She started calling places first thing this morning and took Lucy in the car.

Tamara Collins:
Yup. Tamara here. We've been to three hospitals. THREE.

Celina Juarez:
Wait—three? And no one admitted her?

Tamara Collins:
Nope. All said the same thing—"fever isn't severe enough for immediate care," "monitor from home," blah blah blah. Even though she was barely conscious. One nurse literally told me to come back if she "stops responding."

Nyla Harper:
That's criminal.

Bailey Nune:
Are you kidding me? 104.1 and vomiting, and they turned her away?

Tamara Collins:
She threw up twice between stops. She keeps saying she's freezing while burning up. She's curled up in the back seat now, completely out of it.

Angela Lopez:
You took her to the wrong hospitals. That's neglect.

Aaron Thorsen:
I don't get it. Isn't 104 already emergency-level?

John Nolan:
It is. They probably didn't have beds and made a call. A bad one.

Tamara Collins:
Yeah, well, we're out of options. I was just about to bring her home again when I saw this.

Bailey Nune:
I'm off today. I'll come over and take a look. I've got my gear.

Tamara Collins:
Wait—really??

Bailey Nune:
Yes. I'm certified and equipped. Tim, you okay with this?

Tim Bradford:
Absolutely. Thank you, Bailey.

Tamara Collins:
You're amazing. Seriously. Lucy's in rough shape. If you can help even a little...

Bailey Nune:
I'm on my way now. Hang tight.

Celina Juarez:
Let us know as soon as you see her. Please.

Angela Lopez:
And tell Lucy we love her, even if she's too out of it to hear it.

Tamara Collins:
Will do. Let's just hope we're not too late.
