Last time:

"Baby….please talk to me" he begged.

Olivia sighed and slowly nodded. "Alright……"

-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-

Olivia sighed and slowly nodded. "Alright...I'm depressed, El. I'm happy about the baby. But..." Olivia replied, looking down at her still flat belly.

Elliot gently cupped her face in his hands again. "But what, babe?" he asked in a whispered concern.

Olivia was about to answer but a loud smash came from inside the house. Both of them jumped off of the chair and bolted inside. They found Maureen on the kitchen floor, near the sink with a deep cut on her forehead and a broken glass in her hand. The floor was wet underneath her.

Olivia kneeled down beside Maureen and looked up at Elliot. "Call an ambulance, El" she whispered as she tried to keep Maureen's neck straight and immobilized as much as possible.

Elliot ran out in to the living room to grab the cordless phone. He dialled 911 and walked back in to the kitchen to find his eldest daughter, now seizing.

"She's seizing, El. Something is really wrong" Olivia spoke quickly in a panic.

"Yes, I need an ambulance at 1102 Castleside Drive in Queens. My daughter is seizing" he spoke in a panic over the phone.

"Calm down, sir. An ambulance is on the way" said the caring woman over the phone.

"Thank you" he replied and placed the phone on the kitchen counter. He looked down at Olivia and Maureen to see that she had stopped seizing.

"Do you know how to handle seizures, Liv?" he asked, totally expecting her to say no.

Olivia nodded. "Yes I do" she said, distracted as she held Maureen on her side, grabbing one of her hands and reaching for a tea towel with the other to cover her eyes.

Elliot could see very clearly in her beautiful chocolate brown eyes that she was hiding something from him and it had something to do with seizures. But he knew that it wasn't the time to talk about it right now. It would be a serious conversation for later. The sounds of the sirens of the ambulance that was on the way brought him out of his thoughts. He knew that the ambulance was approaching as the sound of sirens got louder and louder the closer they got to the house.

About three minutes later, the remaining children came running downstairs to find out what the commotion was about and all gasped when they saw Maureen having a second seizure. Seconds later there was a knock on the door. The EMTs had finally arrived. Melody was the closest to the front door so she opened it, letting them in to help Maureen.

The children watched as the short, young red haired, hazel eyed female EMT slide an oxygen mask on to Maureen's nose and mouth before they lifted her up on to the gurney, strapping her on it.

"Sorry, only one can come in the bus with us" EMT Amity Sanders informed Olivia and Elliot.

"You go, El" Olivia told him with a nod.

Elliot nodded as well in return and quickly gave her kiss before following the EMTs out.

Olivia, Melody, Kathleen, Lizzie and Dickie watched from the front step as Elliot climbed in to the ambulance followed by the EMTs pushing the gurney in and in a matter of seconds they were speeding off with the sirens on.

Olivia sighed and looked at the children as they looked at her, waiting for her to speak.

"Get dressed, kids. We're going down there" she informed them before they ran off to their rooms and got dressed.

She sat down on the couch, waiting for them as she was still in her clothes from before.

The four teenagers were running down the stairs moments later. Kathleen, Lizzie and Dickie stayed in the foyer as Melody walked in to the living room to find her mother on the couch, crying.

She kneeled down in front of Olivia, placing a hand on her thigh. Olivia looked up at her daughter at the sudden contact.

"Are you alright, mom?" she asked, wiping away her mother's tears.

Olivia slowly nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine" she lied, through her teeth.

Melody knew she wasn't but didn't want to push her. "Come on, let's go" Olivia said, standing up.

Melody stood up as well and the five of them took off out of the house, in to the car before speeding off to the hospital.

-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-

Olivia, Melody, Kathleen, Dickie and Lizzie arrived at the hospital just fifteen minutes later. Olivia turned the car off, took the keys out of the ignition as the kids got out of the car. She got out as well and locked it before the five of them rushed in to the Emergency Department.

Dickie was the first to spot Elliot in the waiting room with his head in his hands, sobbing.

"Liv, dad's over there" he said, pointing at him.

Olivia nodded and ran over to him. Kathleen, Dickie and Lizzie just stood back to let Olivia comfort their father.

She sat down beside Elliot in the uncomfortable, plastic, beige chairs and wrapped her arms around him. Elliot rested his chin on her shoulder as he sobbed.

"She'll be alright, El. She's strong just like her father" she whispered, comfortingly in his ear.

"She seized again in the ambulance. They couldn't stop it. The last I saw her, she was still seizing as they rushed her in to the trauma room" he sobbed on her shoulder.

Olivia sighed and rubbed his back. "She'll be alright. She'll pull through this" she murmured as she continued to comfort him.

Olivia watched as the other four children sat down in the other chairs, sadly. They were all waiting for the doctor to emerge to inform them of Maureen's condition.

Time went by, painfully slowly for the family as they continued to wait for Maureen's doctor to emerge from the trauma room with news. Elliot had finally stopped sobbing after about twenty minutes. He lifted his head and pulled back to look in to Olivia's tired, sad, chocolate brown eyes. "Thanks, Liv"

"Of course, El. You've done it for me, it was time to return the favour" she whispered and slightly smiled.

Elliot softly kissed the tip of her nose and then on the lips. "I love you."

"I love you too" she whispered back.

Just then a tall, older balding man with a white lab coat finally emerged from the trauma room and walked in to the waiting room area.

"Family of Maureen Stabler?"

"We are" Elliot answered, motioning that all six of them were her family.

The doctor nodded and sat the closest that he could to them all.

"I'm Doctor Peter Madden," he said and shook Elliot's hand.

"Please tell me what is wrong with my daughter?"

The doctor sighed. "It appears that Maureen has Epilepsy. She was brought in a few weeks ago with the same symptoms but Epilepsy wasn't diagnosed at the time"

Dr Madden looked around and noted the shock on all of their faces. No-one had expected that.
