So I love this movie with Sandra Bullock and it kinda gave me the idea for this fic.
Chapter 1
Sabrina Santiago stepped out of the cab, slamming the door shut she looked around. So this was Port Charles. Her cousin Juan had mentioned it a few times and he told her about the Nursing program here.
She couldn't wait to start her new job and her new life. She was finally making all her dreams come true and she couldn't help but wish her mom was here to see it. She wheeled her suitcase along behind her as she made her way down the street. She had already found an apartment near the hospital and was headed that way. When she crossed the street at the stoplight a car came out of nowhere and she didn't even see it coming.
"Alright what have we got?" Patrick Drake asked as an ambulance pulled up in front of the hospital.
"A woman, early to mid twenties. She was struck by a car while crossing an intersection, her bp is 80/60, pulse is thready and she had diminished lung sounds." The paramedic said as they wheeled her inside.
"Start an Iv. We need to check for internal bleeding and order some X-rays and a ct scan of her head and chest." Patrick said as nurses rushed around.
"Dr. Drake we have the results here." A nurse said catching up with him as he was checking up on another patient.
The woman had a broken leg which was fractured in three places, three broken ribs, a few cuts and bruises and a severe head injury. What really worried him was the swelling which was occurring at the moment because of it kept up they would need to operate.
He stopped at the Nurses Desk with her file, "Epiphany we may need to schedule a surgery for this patient. She has severe edema, right now were monitoring her hoping she improves." Epiphany picked up the file and studied it.
"Wait Sabrina Santiago, she was supposed to start work here next week."
"Are you sure it's the same person?" He asked studying the chart.
"Positive."
All of a sudden his pager went off, he picked it up off his belt. "It's her." He said racing down the hall to her room.
"How long had she been seizing?" He asked the Nurse.
"Just started."
They managed to stop the seizures using Dilantin but he knew that he would need to operate right away because she hadn't improved any. She only seemed to be doing worse.
