Off the grid

Chapter 33rd

It wasn't until two days later they were able to transport Agent Gibbs to the marine base some twenty miles away with an Apache helicopter to land in the middle of the courtyard to carry Gibbs and his medical team. While Vance, Torres, McGee, and Lt. Brown will be taking the trucks along the road that has now dried out from the recent rains.

Once they had Special Agent Gibbs strapped in on the stretcher and the doctors to keep an eye out on him during the short flight. When they do arrive at the base. Doctor Cyril Taft is going to have further help from other specialists to help restore the circulation and blood flow into his groin.

His blood pressure, heart rate, and blood count began to creep up slightly making it easier to operate on him again.

Doctor Taft had explained the procedure to the others in the operating room once they had arrived. It was going to be another long session in the operating room. As they began the different procedures on Special Agent Gibbs. Doctor Cyril Taft was more worried now in regard to infection with the knife wound since it was not sterile at the time Hernandez had used it on the aged agent.

More antibiotics were being pumped into his body, shots, and three more units of AB Positive blood hanging on the pole into his right arm vein.

Director Leon Vance and his team had arrived at the marine base with General Alex Wilson had given them quarters to rest along with food and other essentials. Director Vance needed to call Loreile once again to give her an update in spite of the fact it was four o'clock in the morning. But to his surprise, she was awake at the time of the call. Since she had kept her phone next to the bed on loud in the bedroom and with Shane and the nanny next door.

She goes to answer the phone half asleep in bed seeing it was Leon calling from Somalia, Paraguay. "Leon is everything alright?" She needed to ask her friend from way back.

"Gibbs had been transferred to the Marine base on an Apache helicopter with his vitals slightly better. He's currently in surgery again with other specialists Loreile. He's going to have a great shot at surviving with all of the help he's getting as with Doctor Cyril Taft."

"Thank god. Loreile when I get the chance I am going to be using my email later after some sleep to send you a full report on your husband's condition." He stated with a slight yawn.

"Very well Leon go and get some rest and the team. Hopefully, soon the doctors will be able to finish their work on my husband." She pressed the end button by placing the cell phone back into place feeling slightly better both emotionally and mentally.
