August POV

Doctor- well it seems that miss Braxton has fractured about 5 bones in her ankle which is lucky because if all 7 were fractured she wouldn't be able to walk again

August- what about her cheering will she be able to do that again?

Doctor- I'm happy to say she will be able to still cheer but it won't be that easy as before

Tia- that's good

Doctor- yeah but we gave her some pain killers so she will need to take that 2 times a day when she wakes up and when she goes to sleep we gave her some crutches so she needs to stay off her ankle we also put her in a cast so she can go to school but I don't recommend she go anywhere else but school so she is on bed rest until further notice

Tamera- when will the cast be off?

Doctor- about 2-3 months because we are about to do surgery on it if we didn't do the surgery it will take 6 weeks to come off

August- does she have to get the surgery?

Doctor- she doesn't have to but if she doesn't she will be in a lot of pain and may never cheer again so are we doing the surgery or not?

August- I need to call her parents can you give me about 10 minutes?

Doctor- yeah sure *walks away*

I got up to call her parents they answered on the 3rd ring

Me- hello mr and mrs Braxton

Both- hello August

Mr.braxton- what's up?

Me- you guys need to get to the hospital

Ms.braxton- why what's wrong?

Me- well Tamar and Tamera were in cheerleading practice and they dropped Tamar we at the hospital and the doctor said she fractured 5 bones in her ankle she's on best rest and has to have a cast on for about 2-3 months she can only go to school and she needs to stay off it and they are doing surgery but she doesn't have to do the surgery but if she doesn't she won't be able to cheer again and she would be in a lot of pain but they need your approval to do the surgery

Ms.braxton- oh lord we are on our way

I said ok and hung up I sat back in the waiting room with everybody else about 5 minutes later her parents walked through the door just in time to because the doctor just came back

Ms.braxton- doctor we are her parents

Doctor- ok good so are we doing this surgery or not?

Mr.braxton- we give you permission to do surgery

Doctor- ok good we can do the surgery in about 10 minutes

Ms.braxton- how long will the surgery take?

Doctor- about 2-3 hours

August- wow why so long

Doctor- well because she fractured 5 bones in her ankle it depends on how many bones you fractured like if she would of fractured all 7 bones the surgery would take about 5 in a half hours

Mr.braxton- well ok do what you have to do and please take care of our babygirl

Doctor- we will *walks away*

We waited and waited but the doctor didn't come out yet so I called the nanny to check up on the twins the doctor came out about 30 minutes later

Doctor-... everything was great Tamar Braxton will be just fine

A sigh of relief came over everyone

Doctor- during the surgery we have to put a breathing tube in her throat but it's still in her throat when she wakes up we will take it out she will wake up with a sore throat she won't feel her leg or ankle but right now it's in a cast she is not awake yet but you can go see her room 543

Mr and ms. Braxton- thank you doctor

Doctor- your welcome *walks away*

We all walked to room 543 at the sight of her just made me want to cry

We all sat down in all the chairs that were in the room we talked quietly so we wouldn't wake Tamar up about a hour later I look over to where she was at and I seen her eyes fluttering I got up and walk over there

Me- bae are you awake?

Tamar- *slowly nods head*

Me- y'all she awake

Everyone rushes to her bedside

Me- do you want us to get the doctor?

Tamar- *slowly nods head*

I went to go get the doctor they told us to clear the room because we weren't allowed to see them take out the tube about 5 minutes later they told us we could come back in

Doctor- so Tamar how do you feel

Tamar- *hoarse* my throat... hurts

Doctor- that's expected your throat should be better later on tonight you don't feel your ankle because we numbed it and we are giving you some crutches and you are on bed rest only until you got to school and one more thing we want you to stay off that ankle

Tamar- ok *still hoarsed*

Doctor- if every thing is good you can leave tomorrow and you can go to school the next day

Tamar- so I can't cheer... on Wednesday?

Doctor- sad to say you can not you have to watch so you need someone to fill in for you

Tamar- wow I really wanted to cheer... but... I would say you Tamera

Tamera- what? Really me?
