As soon as the car was parked Brandon, Kelly, and Dylan all ran into the Emergency room of the hospital. All three were wanting to find out about Brenda. All three were scared of what they would find out. They knew without anyone telling Brandon over the phone that the accident was a bad one. They had heard about it on the radio when they did a traffic report. When they heard that one car was completely unrecognizable as a car they knew without telling one another that the car they were talking about was the one that Brenda had been driving. They just hoped with everything that they had that Brenda was alright or that if she wasn't alright that she would get through this.
As soon as they were in the Emergency Room Brandon ran up to the check in desk and said "I'm here to see about Brenda Walsh. She was brought in by ambulance from a car accident. An officer Danvers called me. I'm her brother."
The woman named Cassie at the desk looked up and saw the panicked expression on the man's face and quickly typed in the name he had said. She paled when she saw what it said and then looked back up at the man standing before her. She knew that instead of telling him anything that she would go and get the Doctor for him to talk too. She didn't want to say the wrong thing.
Cassie gave Brandon a small smile and stood up. "I'll be right back in a moment. The Doctor will want to talk to you."
Brandon opened up his mouth to say something but didn't get the chance to say anything because Cassie scurried away quickly. He shut his mouth and ground his teeth together. He knew that something was seriously wrong his sister because the woman had paled some after typing in Brenda's name. He just wanted to know what was wrong with his sister. He needed to know what was wrong and he needed to know that she would be alright. He didn't know what he would do if something happened to Brenda. He slammed the door closed on those kinds of thoughts because he knew he couldn't think what if right now. He had to stay calm, cool and collected because Brenda was going to need him to be that way.
Kelly put her hand on Brandon's arm making him look at her and she said "Brandon, Brenda will be fine. We all know how stubborn she is. She isn't going to give up. You'll see honey she will be fine. Plus she has us here to make sure she fights. Don't borrow trouble until we talk to the Doctor."
Brandon sighed and nodded. "I know that you are right Kelly but damn it this is my sister. Why in the hell didn't she tell us she was coming? If she would have told us then one of us could have picked her up and then she wouldn't have been in this accident!"
Kelly shook her head at Brandon. "Brandon you don't know that. You can't blame yourself for her being in the accident. We don't know what happened but I have a feeling the police officer that is walking this way will fill us in. Just remember that you need to stay calm. None of us getting upset is going to help Brenda right now and she is the one we need to think of."
Brandon nodded again and squeezed Kelly's hand as a voice said "Are you Brandon?"
Brandon turned towards the voice and saw an officer standing beside him. "Yes, I am Brandon. Are you Officer Danvers?"
The Officer nodded. "Yes, I am Officer Jay Danvers. Can we talk in private?"
Brandon shook his head. "Anything you say to me can be said in front of my fiancé and my best friend. They both know Brenda well."
Officer Danvers nodded. "Alright then. Has the Doctor been out to talk to you yet?"
Brandon shook his head. "No he or she hasn't been out yet. The woman behind the desk went to go get him or her. Can you tell me what happened? Why did a semi truck hit my sister?"
Officer Danvers pulled out a notebook and looked at it before looking back at Brandon. "The driver of the semi truck fell asleep behind the wheel. He had been driving for well over twenty four hours. He woke up right after he heard a crashing sound and tried to stop his truck from hitting your sister's car again but by then it was too late. The second time it clipped your sister's car it sent her car airborne."
Brandon paled and swore. "I hope you are pressing charges against the driver! What in the hell was he thinking driving for twenty four hours straight? Isn't there laws about only being allowed to drive so long at one period of time?"
Officer Danvers nodded. "There will be charges pressed against the driver. I know that it isn't any consolation but he is also being treated right now."
Brandon swore again and shook his head. "You're damn straight that him being treated isn't any consolation! None of this would have happened if he hadn't fallen asleep behind the wheel! God Damn it! What am I supposed to tell my parents when they get here? That all of this could had been avoided if only the asshole who was behind the wheel of the semi truck had stopped and slept for a while instead of driving for twenty four hours straight?"
Dylan put his hand on Brandon's shoulder and said "B, I know that this is upsetting because it's pissing me off as well but we need to remain calm. We won't do Brenda any good by being so upset. Besides here comes the Doctor."
Brandon looked at Officer Danvers sheepishly and said "I'm sorry for losing my temper with you. It's not your fault after all."
Officer Danvers smiled slightly and shook his head. "Don't worry about it Brandon. If it were my sister that had been hit I would be saying and wondering the same stuff. Do you mind if I hear what the Doctor has to say?"
Brandon shook his head and said "No I don't mind."
Officer Danvers nodded and took place on the other side of Brandon while Kelly stayed on his right side and Dylan stood behind Brandon with his hand on Brandon's shoulder.
"Are one of you Brenda Walsh's brother?" the Doctor asked.
Brandon took a slight step forward. "I'm Brandon Walsh. I'm her twin brother."
The Doctor nodded and said "I'm Doctor Andrew Vansing. I worked on Brenda when she was first brought in. She has been rushed up to surgery. I'll need for you to sign some papers but then you can go up to the surgical waiting room."
Brandon nodded and said "I'll sign anything I need to. What can you tell me about my sister's condition?"
Doctor Vansing sighed. "She has several broken ribs and one of them punctured her lung. Her left leg is broken as well as her left arm. She has a severe concussion and she didn't wake up at all from the time she was got out of her car and brought here. There is a lot of swelling in her back and her spleen may need to come out. Her neck showed a fracture as well. She lost the baby that she was carrying."
Brandon's mouth dropped open and he demanded "She was pregnant?"
Doctor Vansing nodded. "I'm not even sure she was aware that she was pregnant. When I was checking her over I noticed some tearing and bruises on her inner thighs. I hate to say it but from the look of things she was sexually assaulted not too long ago."
Dylan swore and said "How far along was she could you tell?"
Doctor Vansing nodded. "She was about eight weeks give or take a week. From the tearing and the way she is healing I would say that the sexual assault occurred somewhere in the last three months. She crashed twice on the way to the hospital but was revived quickly. Do you know if Brenda is prone to seizures?"
Brandon shook his head. "She has never had a seizure that I know of. Is she having them now?"
Doctor Vansing nodded. "She has two of them before the Surgeon declared her stable enough to rush her to surgery. If you want to sign these form real quick I'll have Cassie here take you up to the surgical floor so you can wait on news about Brenda. I'll call up there and let them know that her family is here so that they can come out and give you updates."
Brandon took the clipboard from the Doctor and signed every place he was showed and then handed it back to the Doctor and said "Our friends and my Mom and Dad are on the way. When they get here can you make sure that they know where we are?"
Doctor Vansing nodded. "Yes, I will. I'm so sorry about your sister. Cassie will show you up to the surgical waiting room now."
Brandon nodded and Officer Danvers said "May I come up and wait with you guys?"
Brandon nodded and then followed behind Cassie who led the way to the surgical waiting room. All the way up he was cussing in his head. He needed for his sister to be alright and after hearing everything he did he wasn't so sure that she was going to be alright. He closed his eyes on a wave up pain and sent up another prayer that she would make it through this.
