EMMA POV
I WOKE UP THIS MORNING TO THE SOUND OF BABY ELIZABETH CRYING HER LITTLE LUNGS OUT AND I JUST LAY IN BED PRAYING THAT IT WOULD SHE WOULD STOP CRYING BUT SHE DIDNT AND I SIGHED BECAUSE IT WAS STILL VERY EARLY IN THE MORNING BUT I KNEW I HAD TO GET UP AND SEE WHAT WAS WRONG WITH OUR DAUGHTER , AS I MADE MY WAY TO THE BEDROOM I SAW THAT LIBBY WAS VERY FLUSHED AND HAD A FEVER AND I THEN REMEMBERED THAT MAXI AND I WERE BOTH WORKING TODAY BUT HOW COULD I LEAVE HER WHEN SHE WAS SICK I THEN CALLED MAXI INTO THE ROOM AND WHEN I TOLD HIM ABOUT LIBBY HE AGREED WE SHOULD TAKE HER TO THE DOCTOR IF SHE DOES NOT GET BETTER BUT I COULD NOT MISS WORK
AFTER I WAS ALL READY FOR WORK I TOLD THE BABYSITTER KEEP AN EYE ON LIBBY FOR ME MAXI AND I BOTH THEN GOT INTO THE CAR AND DROVE TO WORK AND AS WE WALKED INTO THE TOWER WE WERE TOLD OUT SHIFTS MAXI AND CHAPPO WERE AT THE MIDDLE OF THE BEACH AND HARRIES AND I WAS AT THE FAMILIES END
AND IT WAS NOT VERY LONG BEFORE OUR VICTIMS OF THE SURF COME FLOODING IN I THEN GRABBED MY BOARD AND PADDLE OUT TO THE PEOPLE AFTER WE HAD REACHED THE SHORELINE I TOLD HIM TO GO AND SWIM IN FRONT OF THE FLAGS
AFTER MANY RESCUES IT WAS FINALLY TIME TO CLOSE THE BEACH FOR THE DAY AND THAT MEANS I COULD GO HOME TO OUR DARLING DAUGHTER BUT AS I WENT TO GET MY PHONE AND WALLET FROM MY LOCKER I SAW A MISSED CALL FROM THE BABYSITTER AND AS I REPLAYED IT SAID THAT ELIZABETH HAD A HIGH FEVER OF 39 DEGREES I THEN STARTED TO PANIC AND RUSHED OUT OF THE DOOR AND MAXI MUST HAVE SEEN ME CAUSE HE STOPPED ME AND CALMED ME DOWN AND WHEN I TOLD HIM ABOUT ELIZABETH HE SAID THIS TO ME:
SWEETHEART, IT WILL ME ALRIGHT WE WILL GET ELIZABETH SOME HELP AND SHE WILL BE ALRIGHT OKAY
OKAY MAXI
AND SO THAT'S WHAT WE DID AND WE FOUND OUT THAT LIBBY WAS ONLY TEETHING AND WE COULD GIVE HER TEETHING TOYS AND SOME CHILDRENS PANADOL AND I FELT A LITTLE BIT BETTER KNOWING THAT OUR DAUGHTER WAS GOING TO BE JUST FINE
