Chapter 19

Mr Ponds P.O.V

I see foam coming out of Hartley's mouth as she finishes her seizure. That minute went by really slowly. She woke up crying, not knowing where she is.

"Ok, Hartley it's so. You've had a seizure. Now you just lie here and rest for a little while till the ambulance comes." I explain, to her as she rolls over to the other side and closes her eyes again.

A few minutes later two men with a stretcher were running towards us.

"Ok. What happened?" One of them asks.

"Well basically, I think she was having a panic attack, as she was clutching her chest trying to breathe. Then she collapse to the floor and started to seizure." I explain, to the paramedic.

The paramedic help Hartley onto the old stretcher and carry her out to the ambulance. The ambulance had a huge amount of students around.

"Whoever doesn't move away from the ambulance now get after school detention for an entire term." I shout, which then makes all the children move.

"I'll call her mother straight away, I'll get her to meet her at the hospital." I explain, as Hartley gets drove away to the hospital.

I walk off to the school office and pick up the old phone.

It rings three times before going onto answer phone. I hang up and try again. But again it goes straight to answerphone. I hang up and try again, but it goes to answerphone. I give up and leave a message.

"Hello. Mrs See it's the Oakmoore school here. I need you to go to the hospital immediately. Hartley has had a seizure and has been taken by an ambulance to the hospital for further treatment and observation." I say, then hanging up the phone.

I get in my car, and start the engine. It only seems right to go and see Hartley at the hospital. I drive twenty minutes to get there. I find her awake in her bed, inactive. I talk towards the bed, draw open the curtain. I pull I close again, and go and sit down.

"Hello Hartley. You ok now?" I ask, sitting down next to her bed.

"I'm fine now. Sorry if I scared you." She replies, propping herself up against the bed frame and the wall.

"Well that's good then. I've called your mother but she didn't answer, so I left a voicemail. I'm sure she will be here soon." I explain.  Soon we heard a lot of rushing around, like there had been an accident.

"Car crash victim. 30 year old Female, whiplash, a few broken bones and a bleed on the brain. The other victim is coming in, and we need the baby to get check out." The paramedic says.

The two women get pulled up next to us, while another paramedic puts the baby onto the bed next to them. 

"Car crash victim two, seems like she had an epileptic seizure while driving. She has only got a few broken bones, and whiplash." The paramedic explains.

"Wait. I know who this is." The doctor examining the women says.

"This female is Mamrie Hart, and that one is Grace Helbig. That's her daughter Everley. Who knows where Hartley is. I know them from YouTube." The doctor continues to explain.

I see Hartley, sprint of her bed and towards the bed.

"Mom, mom. Is she going to be ok? Please save her. Will someone please tell me what's happened. Is she going to die? Please I can't deal with this."Hartley sobs, trying to see her mother.

I force her away from her mothers bed, and finally let go of her as she forces her way out of my arms.
She rushes to Everley's side.
Everley was awake, and crying from the pain that the car crash had caused her.

"It's ok baby. I'm here now. Mommy and aunt Mamrie are going to be fine. I promise you, this isn't it there is more." Hartley cries, holding onto Everley.

Hartley's P.O.V

Mr Pond stares at me and my sister in disbelief, like he was in a movie.

The nurses run some more tests on me and Everley at the same time. Making sure everything was fine.

"Hartley I need to keep an eye on you, for tonight just to make sure you don't have anymore seizures. If not you are free to go." The nurse explains.

"Can I have Everley with me for tonight. And I can get Auntie Hannah here, to stay with us for the night." I ask.

"Yeah of course. I will find a cot for her, so she can sleep next to you tonight. Also can I have Hannah's number please?"  The nurse says, removing the cold thermometer out of my mouth.

"Sure, here you go. Thank you." I say, taking Everley back to my hospital bed.

"We need to to get her to theatre, stat." The doctor says, rushing Mamrie to the theatre.

"Mamrie? Do you think she will be alright?" I ask Mr Pond, who was still here.

"She will be fine." He explains.

"You promise?"

"Promise, right I'm going to head home, because your aunt will be here soon, so I will see you at school." Mr Pond says.

"Oh ok, thank you sir."

"That's ok, goodbye little one, goodbye Hartley." Mr Pond says, stroking Eve's hair then walking off.

A nurse examining mom walks past, probably trying to ignore me.

"Hello nurse, sorry but can you please tell me. What happened, and what's wrong with mom." I ask.

"Oh, sure. Well our mom, Grace has a few broken bones, whiplash and she is epileptic, which probably explains why you had a seizure today. Did you know she was epileptic?" She asks, looking at my notes.

"No. I didn't, and Mamrie. Is she going to be ok?" I ask, trying to stop Eve from crying. I finally get her to stop crying by rocking her to sleep.

"Well, when Grace and Mamrie were in the car crash, it seems like when they crashed Mamrie didn't have her seat-belt on, she went through the windscreen."

"But is she going to be ok?"

"Well she went into a coma. And if she doesn't come out of it, she could die..."

"And if she does?"

"She is mostly likely to have brain damage."
