A chance meeting with Glen

Lost

Glen's P.O.V.

Aimee had been feeling awful on the flight back home and as we flew back in to London,she was getting worse but insisted she'd be fine if she just got home and got some sleep.We had collected our bags and were walking through the airport,when I suddenly noticed that she looked so much worse,I could literally see the colour draining from her and she collapsed right in front of me.I was petrified!

I screamed for somebody to help me..........Airport police came running over and called an ambulance.The trip to the hospital seemed like a blur,the paramedics were frantically working on Aims to bring her around,her blood pressure was low,they were firing questions at me,did she have,how was she before this happened,was she or could she be pregnant.My head was spinning!

Aimee was rushed into re-suss for assessment.I wasn't allowed in.I was absolutely beside myself......I called Mark telling him to what had happened.He just said he was coming straight to the hospital.

It seemed like an eternity before anyone came to tell me what was going on.The doctor took me in to a family room.

"I'm Dr. Darcy,your fiancee has an ectopic pregnancy and is bleeding internally.We believe one of her Fallopian tubes may have ruptured,we need your consent to do emergency exploratory surgery,Mr Power.....this is quite urgent!"

"Y-Y-Yes do what you need to do.....I.....don't let them die....We didn't know.........She's pregnant?!?! "

"Yes Mr Power.....i'm sorry but  this pregnancy is not viable .....in fact there is also a high risk for Aimee...We need to get to theatre now!"

He hands me consent forms and I sign them....."just don't let her die!Just...she's my world!" I  can feel tears escape me.The Dr places his hand on my shoulder saying he will do his best and leaves.

I'm sat in this empty room, a million thoughts swirling around my head...how the hell can this be happening?We were so happy,we're getting married!We were having a baby and didn't even know it.Now our little baby is dying and there is nothing I can do....and Aim's might die too...My breath catches in my throat,my heart is thumping,I feel like I'm sinking in quick sand.The walls are closing in on me,I feel like I can't breathe!I think I can hear someone calling my name...something touching me.Its Mark!

I can't even explain....I just burst into tears,I can not get the words out but Mark just throws his arm around me...telling me everything will be grand,I have to be strong for Aim's she needs me.He's right hearing him say that,I know he's right,I have to be strong for her,I have to will her to get through this...she will get through this...I made her a promise that this is only the beginning and damn it, it is!

I calm down and tell Mark the extent of what is going on,he's shocked and now understands why I am in such a state...but he still thinks everything will be okay.I hope to god with everything that I have that he his right!

"I can't loose her Mark....I just can't...it's bad enough we've lost our little baby....she is my everything!"
