Chapter 11

Eva had woken up and was fighting the nurses as they tried to take out her breathing tube. As she attempted to move the nurses had to hold her down as Dr. Manning removed the tube.

"She's probably in a lot of pain," Natalie said, "Lets give her another dose of morphine and some water. I bet her throats dry. Alright Eva," Natalie locked eyes with the scared teen, "I'm going to remove the tube now. I need you to cough for me all right. Can you do that?"

Eva nodded and coughed as Dr. Manning removed the tube. A nurse gave her some water and she gulped it down, "Eva… is that my name?"

The room was silent; the nurses letting Dr. Manning access how to handle the situation, "Yes. You were in an accident. Do you not remember?"

"No," She shook her head and began to cry, "No. I don't know anything!"

"Alright, alright," Natalie knew she needed to stay calm, as her condition was till fragile. "Hopefully you'll get your memories back soon. She saw Gabby and Matt at the door and motioned for a nurse t stay with Eva as she went to speak to them.

"Gabby, Matt," She stepped outside the room and closed the door, "There's something I need to tell you. It looks like Eva has amnesia. She doesn't remember anything."

"From the fall?" Gabby knew amnesia wasn't good at any time, "Are you going to do a Cat-scan?"

"Of course. Now we are hopeful that her memory will come back but for now please don't tell her anything to sensitive. Nothing about her parents," She warned. "And I don't think more then two visitors at a time is a good idea. I have to go do some rounds now but I'll order the Cat-scan and come back to check on her later."

"Right," Gabby nodded, "Thanks Natalie."

"So amnesia?" Matt looked at his fiancé, "Do you want me to go and tell everyone while you go in and see her?"

"No, no," Gabby couldn't handle this right now. "Amnesia? Matt there's a chance she might never regain her memories. Sure that means she won't remember loosing her parents but… it'll be like a part of her would be gone." She put her hand on the doorknob as if she was unsure whether to open the door or not.

"Well like Natalie said, right now we need to stay optimistic."

'Right," Gabby forced a smile on her face and walked into Eva's room. The teen indeed looked very sick; she looked very pale and she was crying as she laid on the bed her eyes drifting off to sleep.

"Hi Eva," Gabby spoke gently, as if she were speaking to a young child, "I'm your Aunt Gabby and this is your Uncle Matt."

"Hi," Eva looked at them abut didn't say anything else, "I feel… really bad," She told them, "My head feels like a blurry TV screen but I don't even know how I know that… Owe!" She let out a sharp gasp of pain, "Every time I almost remember something my head starts pounding."

"It'll come back," Gabby patted her hand, "Now get some sleep alright. Your body needs rest."

Eva nodded and soon she was asleep.

"I'll go and tell everyone what's happening," Matt gave Gabby and kiss on the cheek and left the room and walked into one of the waiting room where the family was awaiting news, "Well she's awake," Matt began, "But she has amnesia. She doesn't remember anything. The doctor's are optimistic her memories will return but she's still not out of the woods yet.

Diego stood on wobbly legs and walked towards his uncle, "Can I see her?"

Bending down to touch the boy's shoulder Matt said, "She's sleeping right now but when she wakes up you can visit her."

Diego had been trying to be strong but he couldn't do it anymore; he let out a long sigh and collapsed into Matt's arms sobbing… "I…don't…..cant…. loose….her….too."

Matt's heart broke for the young boy who at only ten had already experienced more heartbreak then most people o in a life time. "You're not going to loose her bud. The doctor's and nurses are going to do everything they can for her."

"What if they can't do anything?" He frowned miserably. "I want to see my sister!"

"She's sleeping Diego," Matt repeated his words, "She needs her sleep but you can visit her later. Now do you want to go and get something to eat. You must be hungry."

"No! No!" He started punching Matt as hard as he could, "LET ME SEE HER! I DIDN'T GET TO SAY GOODBYE TO MOM AND DAD!" He sobbed violently as he began shaking, Matt immediately taking him back into his arms, "I want to say goodbye to her."

"Eva's not going to die Diego," Matt told her sternly hoping he'd understand, "Now go and get something to eat and then maybe I can call Kelly and have him pick you up; take you back to the apartment. You can skip school tomorrow and come and visit Eva."

"I'll dive him back," Roman offered, "Come on Diego, you can show me how to get there. Maybe we can even stop and get some pizza and candy on the way home." To weak to argue Diego walked towards Roman and only nodded his head. "Alright," Roman led him out of the waiting room Burgress walking behind him.

After her grandson had left the room Esmeralda looked at Matt, "Is Gabby with her now? How is she? I know she doesn't want to hear this but none of this is her fault," She knew her daughter well; and knew she'd be blaming herself for all of this. All her life she'd worshiped her older brother and done everything to please him; always in some way needing his approval. In her eyes the events of the past few months were the final let down. She couldn't watch her brother's kids. She'd never be able to forgive herself.

"Not to well," Matt told her honestly, "I know she blames herself and she's shook up. Every time I bring up the baby though…" He shook his head, "She changes the subject. I know if anything happened to the baby it would only make everything worse."

"Agreed," Esmeralda nodded and stood up, "I'll go and sit with her; hopefully I can get her to talk."

"Yeah hopefully."

"Gabriela," Esmeralda walked into the hospital room her voice lowered, as she knew Eva needed as much rest as she could get, "Matt told me what happened."

"Yeah," Gabby couldn't meet her mother's eyes, "Maybe I should have given up custody. I think they're better off without me. Antonio and Laura were wrong. I can't do this,"

"No, no," She shook her head, "None of this is your fault. What happened was because of the depression and shock of Eva and Diego loosing there parents; you didn't make that plane go down. Eva and Diego needed you. You got them help; give them the love they need and you recognized the need for them to start fresh at new schools. Believe me when I say they needed you and I know you needed them. Your baby also needs you Gabby. You need to let all of this guilt go, its eating up inside of you and all of the stress is not good for your baby."

Gabby ran her hands through her already messy and dirty hair, "I know that Mom! I know I did all of that but it wasn't enough. Diego still had to go into he hospital and now Eva has amnesia; I didn't' protect them. As for the baby I know I'm not going to make a good mother anyways; Matt's only saying around because he feels sorry for me.

"No, no. Matt loves you and the baby so much! He loves Eva and Diego too. He's the perfect man for you Gabby. Do you have any idea how worried he is about you right now?"

"I can't handle all of this right now. When Eva starts to get better then maybe I'll feel better. I can't do that right now though."

"Fair enough," She nodded, "Jus make sure you get plenty of rest and eat something. I'm going to send Matt back in to sit with you. He'll take good care of you."
