Paraguay's truth
Chapter 45
Doctor Taft continued to have issues with his patients with the bullet fragments. So finally after another hour along with two more units of blood. He was done and exhausted himself with Gibbs blood pressure rising slightly.
Taking off his blue cap and mask. He needed to wipe his eyes along with his rim glasses. After wiping them he had placed the glasses back on with ordering the technicians to clean up Gibbs getting him ready for transport to his ICU.
After writing up the report on what was to be done in ICU with the patient. It was time for the doctor and friend to speak with Gibbs friends from NCIS. This has to stop with his friend wanting to kill himself all of the time. However was it his place to tell him to stop his nonsense?
Walking slowly out of the operating room. He went straight to the waiting room for where McGee, Torres, Lt. Brown and most of all Director Leon Vance.
"Gibbs is going to be fine in time with the right shoulder and with the fragments removed from below the chest adding more scars to his collection." Doc will have said with Director Vance needing to know about Loreile further.
"How is Loreile and the baby?" Vance asked the important question..
"From what I understand the fetus is fine after taking the tests to confirm the pregnancy. She has some minor contusions and bruising to her back and legs. Otherwise the doctor working on her was able to repair the shoulder."
"Thank God!" McGee will reply with sitting back down in his chair.
"In regard to visiting. Both of them have been taken to ICU to be watched closely and visiting will begin within the hour. Now if you will excuse me I needed to take a shower and get into clean clothes along with calling Catherine."
"Thanks Doc with the Intel on the both of them." Director Vance responded with rubbing his head with exhaustion.
Sometime later Loreile had woke in her room some what confused as to where she was for the moment. Her sister Elizabeth and husband David having arrived once they had received the phone call from NCIS. Elizabeth was holding her sister's hand feeling slightly cold.
Moments later she finally opened her eyes to see her sister and David concerned. "OMG! Where is Jethro?"
"Calm down Elizabeth. Jethro is fine. He's currently with his own recovering from his injuries. Doctor Cyril Taft was able to save his life once more."
"Yeah I know the man has nine lives to be lucky." She tried to move her right shoulder when she felt the twinge of pain.
"Taking it Sis you're going to be alright. And I have no idea just how long you're going to be here."
And than she realize touching her stomach for the baby's life. "Is the baby alright Sis?" She had to asked with some tears forming at the corner of her eyes.
"The baby is fine Loreile. The doctors had taken a number of tests to confirm that the fetus is fine in general and growing. Does Gibbs know that he's going to be a father?"
"No. I never had the chance to tell him Elizabeth. I know he's going to be completely shocked and at the same time thrilled since the death of his daughter Kelly 32 plus years ago."
"This will make a wonderful get well card with you telling him in a card. Why don't I go downstairs and see if I can find the perfect card for you and write into the card telling him he's going to be a father." Elizabeth quipped with the great idea.
"I love the idea and be sure to show me first before placing it into his hands depending on whether he's awake." Loreile had to make mention to her sister.
"How about you get permission from your doctor to take you into a wheelchair and hand the card to him?"
"Even better sis. Do me a favor and see if you speak with someone in authority to give me the permission to see my husband?" Loreile said with a slight grimace.
