"9-1-1 what's you're emergency."

"My granddaughter collapsed." Richard said in a panicked voice.

"Where are you sir?"

"2131 Breakers Drive."

His words seemed so distant to her. Owen was crying outside the door yelling for Madi to wake up.

"Madi, can you hear me, Baby?" She asked her daughter again. She frantically felt her pulse to find it weaker than it probably should be.

"Meredith, they're sending an ambulance." Richard said. "What could it be?"

"I don't know. She doesn't have a preexisting disorder." Meredith cried.

"Okay, Mer, let's just focus on keeping her stable."

Meredith nodded wiping away her tears. Five minutes later, blue lights flashed through the windows into the house.

"The ambulance is here, Mer. I got her."

Meredith nodded as Richard lifted her little body into his arms. Standing up, Meredith looked down at Owen and picked him up.

"It's okay, Baby. Madi will be okay." Owen looked at her and nodded as she hurried down the stairs. "I'm going to ride with her. Richard, can you and Owen follow?"

Richard nodded throwing on his shoe's and putting on Owen's. Meredith climbed into the back of the ambulance as they strapped the gurney down so she wouldn't roll.

"What happened?" The paramedic asked.

Meredith took a deep breath. "I don't know. Her brother came down saying that something was wrong. We found her like this. She doesn't have a preexisting problem. And her pulse was weak."

"How old is she?"

"Four."

"Name?"

She thought for a second. "Madison Lynn Kerev…" "Madison Lynn Grey." She lied.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The ambulance pulled into the pit and the doors opened. Three doctors stood. Two she didn't recognize… and Dr. Bailey.

"What do we have?" Bailey asked not noticing Meredith.

"Four year old female collapsed. She has no preexisting conditions." The paramedic said climbing out of the back of the ambulance with the gurney.

"Name?" Bailey asked as Meredith jumped out of the back. She froze.

"Madison Grey." The paramedic said.

"Uh, take her to room 2193 and page Nuero." She told the interns. Meredith started to follow, but Bailey grabbed her arm stopping her. "Meredith Grey?"

"Dr. Bailey." She answered quietly.

"When did you get here?"

"A couple days ago." Meredith answered. She saw Richard coming in the door with Owen in his Spiderman pajamas by his side.

"Meredith." Richard called.

"Excuse me." Meredith said to Dr. Bailey before hurrying over to him.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everything was going so fast. Like the world was spiraling around her yet she stood so still unable to catch up.

She stood outside her daughters room watching as nurses and doctors hurried to help her baby. It took on such a different meaning when it was her baby. She felt helpless as she stood outside the window. Richard had taken Owen down to the cafeteria not wanting his young eyes to see his sister like this.

"Dr. Grey?" A young intern said.

"Yes?"

"We're taking your daughter up to CT and MRI. The neurosurgeon is meeting us up there. He'll come to see you after he reads the results."

"Thank you." Meredith nodded as she turned her attention back to the room. She didn't recognize any of them. Of course with the five years that passed when she was gone, her group interns that she had left would now be fifth year residents and more interns would have come in to replace them.

She walked over to the gurney as they rolled her out and took her hand. Giving it a quick kiss, she let them wheel her away to do their jobs.

She needed to call George. He was the only one of her friends who even knew that she was in Seattle, and she needed some support.

Pulling out her phone, she dialed his number and bought it to her ear.

Christina was laughing hysterically as she finished off her forth beer.

"Shut up." Izzie groaned throwing a peanut at her.

"Seriously, Yang, you need some help." Alex laughed taking a sip of his own beer.

"How many have you had?" Christina slurred.

"This is my first." Alex sighed.

"You're such a… a George! You're such a Bambi." Christina and Izzie laughed together.

George's phone rang. He looked at the caller id and froze for a second. "I'll be right back." Before they could say anything, he walked out of the bar. "Hello? Mer?"

"George?" She sniffled.

"Mer, what's wrong?"

"I'm at the hospital. Madi collapsed in the bathroom. They don't know what's wrong with her. They don't know what's wrong with my baby." She finally broke down.

"Okay, Mer. I'm on my way."

"Thank you, George." She sniffled.

He hung up the phone and hurried back into the bar. "I… I have to go." He said grabbing his coat.

"What's got your panties in a bunch, Bambi?" Christina laughed.

"I'll see you guys tomorrow." He said before hurrying out of the bar leaving the four friends confused.
