Being the middle child of Ellis Shepherd, and Roger Williams Shepherd life can be complicated especially since I'm the youngest of us triplets. Luke, and Leia are fun, but I really can't understand what goes on their heads. I simply do not know why I am different from them. This morning while I was getting ready for school I felt a little odd but nothing other than being Gail Shepherd who sometimes spends way too much time on Web MD or reading mom's books looking for a symptom when I feel odd. I guess I have a neurological disorder that nobody has seen or taken care of. I try to keep from being sick but when I have siblings in daycare, and preschool it can be quite hard to keep from getting sick because Sally, and Stewie bring home every single illness.

Today is my figure skating rehearsal of course my mom can't go because she's working, so I won't have any friends or family there. Since Rachel left with uncle Donald and Aunt Hannah I haven't really had anyone to connect with as Maddie doesn't seem to have much in common with me, and Carrie, and Caroline are as old as my aunt and uncle that I really don't spend time with them. My cousins Albert, and Elliot I spend time with though because they are close to my age. My parents are always busy with Sally and Stewie that they don't even pay attention to the middle child who needs as much love as the rest of my siblings. As I was walking to school, my ankle began to hurt minor but just sore, nothing hospital worthy but a little concerning.

After I got to school my ankle started to hurt even more but nothing I was really concerned about I just thought about the scenarios of what I could be, but I didn't want to make up an illness that I don't have so Web MD or even mom's books aren't what I should be thinking of. During lunch I didn't eat much. "Gail aren't you hungry didn't mom make a good casserole?" asked Luke. "Oh, Luke I'm just not that hungry I don't know why im just not that hungry as much as I love mom's casserole." I replied to my slightly older brother. "Oh, PLEASE Gail let's face the facts you read Web MD or mom's medical books before bed last night and that's why you aren't very hungry." Leia said being sarcastic.

Leia can sometimes be a pain in my butt, but she is my sister, and I love her very much. Right before skating rehearsal I fainted. I didn't know what was going on I was just scared. My foot was sore I was unsure what was going on, the only thing I could think of was how Anne and Andy that Aunt Hannah had made for each of us when we were born were in my school bag. My father doesn't like me bringing toys to school because I am a nine-year-old little girl who should be out growing toys. I am at the age where dolls are good because I'm only in the third grade because of my birthday. Luke, Leia, and I don't really want to rush our childhood because we want to be able to enjoy all the things that Mom and Dad may have missed when they were growing up. I know dad lost a lot because of my Aunt Gail.

"What do we have?" asked a doctor who sounded familiar to me. "Nine Year old girl who passed out at the ice skating rink." An EMT said. "OH MY GOD page doctor Shepherd, and Nurse Williams" said the doctor that sounded familiar. I knew who it was that they were paging because those are my parents. I felt like I was going to vomit before I was brought into the hospital I vomited on the doctor who was very familiar as it was my grandmother. She was concerned for me. When I got admitted I was examined to find out what was going on. One thing that they saw is that my foot was infected and dislocated and needed to be put back into place. Of course, I didn't want surgery but I needed it to put my foot back into place.

I of course didn't know what kind of damage I got from my injuries my mother was the first to see me besides my grandmother who was on my case even though she couldn't be because she is family but name one in the hospital that isn't family in that hospital. I was very sleepy and fell asleep to wake up for rounds of interns with my infected foot in a temporary cast.

"Nine-Year-Old Gail Shepherd. Day one after foot dislocation, and has an infection in her foot, more testing is required to ensure that she didn't break anything else especially hip because theirs a family history of hip dislocation, and infections." Said a Intern. "What are the alternatives" asked Dr. Bailey. "Antibiotics, CT scans, X-ray, MRI, foot elevation, and observation." The intern said.

Of course, I was not really thrilled with what was going on. My sister who had made fun of me yesterday now thinks that I was trying to figure out was wrong with me. My brother felt bad for me and wanted to bring things from home for me. He got my favorite blanket to change it from the hospital blanket that is very uncomfortable, my dolls that I had in my backpack, and my favorite pillow from my bed. Luke brought mostly everything from my bed I liked having my dolls, eagle, blanket, pillow, tablet, iPod, and my cellphone. My mom, brothers, and sisters were trying to make sure I stayed comfortable while I'm in the hospital.

A/N: I wanted to introduce one of the grandchildren's point of views into the story instead of the children. Also this storyline is based off of really life situations that has gone on in my life in the past few weeks. As I had an infection in my foot which prompted the infection that Gail Shepherd has, and a family member recently had a severe dislocated ankle and broke several bones in the foot. Anyways I hope you enjoyed this story I hope to get more out later tomorrow, but I may add to a story I started for another show.
