Chapter 24- reality stikes

The ambo rolled into med. "Chout! Talk to me," Natalie said as they wheeled gabby in. "Ambo accident. 33 year old female. Shocked once, not breathing, pulse is weak and thready." Chout Yelled. They wheeled her into a trauma room and started working on her. They intubated her and put her on the vent. They put her on a moving bed and brought her up to the ICU. Right as they got her in a room, truck and squad came storming in. "Natalie! Wheres gabby! What's happening?" Matt cried. "She's very critical. We put her on the vent and brought her up to the ICU," Natalie replied. "C-can I see her?" Casey asked choking back tears. "Sure, but only you." Natalie said. She brought him up to gabbys room. Matt saw his wife and collapsed. "Oh gabby!" He cried. He was no longer trying to hold back the tears. He ran over to her and sobbed into her chest. He sat in the chair next to her and held her hand. He texted chief.
*text convo*
M: is it possible that I could get the rest of shift off and maybe the next month or so?
C: of course. Be with your wife.
M: thank you so much Chief.
Matt put his phone in his back pocket and dozed off. He woke up the next morning and gabby wasn't in the room. He walked over to the nurses station. "Do you know where gabby Dawson is?" He asked with sorry filling his features. "Matt," Natalie walked up behind him. "We brought her up to a private room and didn't want to wake you." She's on the tenth floor in room 1019." Natalie said. "Thanks, is she awake?" "She is." Natalie replied. Matt ran up the stairs and into her room. She looked over to him and sobbed. "I'm so sorry!" She cried. "Shh. It's okay baby," he said. "Natalie said we can go. And I'm aloud to work." Gabby said. "Okay.. let's leave then." Matt said. They went home and slept. They woke up and spent the next day in bed watching tv. They went to bed and woke up the next day and got ready for shift.
