" Are you Mr. Matthews?" Asked The Nurse walking into the room. "Yes I'm Mr. Matthews." Answered Don.
"We're running out of time we need to get the operation done in the next 36 hours or it'll be to late to do anything, I take it you have talked it over with your family about wanting to give Stacy one of your kidneys to her?" Asked The Nurse.
"Yeah, I did and we're going through with it." Answered Don.

"Alright." Said Stacy.
"Hey honey, how are you doing." Said Sarah..
"I'm alright, why did Cody have to talk to dad in private?" Asked Stacy.
" I don't know why." Answered Sarah.
"Hey Stacy, Cody and I are going to talk to the nurse for a second, we'll be right back." Yelled Don from the hallway. "Alright." Said Stacy and Sarah.
"So what did you guys do when you got back to your place?" Asked Stacy.
"Well, I took a shower, and Cody got a snack and slept most of the time." Giggled Sarah.
"Figures, just like old times." Said Stacy laughing.
"What did you do while we were gone?" Asked Sarah.
"Well we-" Started Stacy.
"Hey, Cody will be right back, he went with the nurse for something." Interrupted Don.
"Where did he go?" Asked Stacy.
"I don't know, just don't worry about it." said Don. "So what were you ladies talking about?" Asked Don.
" Oh, nothing just don't worry about it." Mocked Stacy.

"Hey, Baby, How are you doing?" Asked Don.
"Well, figuring I got a life saving surgery in a couple hours, I could say I've been better." Said Stacy laughing.
"I know what you mean." Said Don while trying not to laugh.
"Where is Cody, I was hoping I would see him before I go in, I wanted to talk to him about what he said last night?" Asked Stacy.
"He's around, he's going to be running a little late, cause he wanted to run over to his parents house to get something, and then he'll meet us here." Said Don.
