Point of View of Elizabeth, Roger, and Meredith
Elizabeth:
This morning I got to spend time with my nephew and nieces before my older sister and I went out for breakfast. I'm looking forward to baby Sally coming into our family she is going to be special to all of us. Sally is special to me because she is going to have my first name as a middle name. Elizabeth is a beautiful name but I am liking mommy and daddy didn't think of any girl names when I was born or my older sister Amelia were born because we have names of our aunts.
"Ellie are you okay because you hardly touched your breakfast?" I said in concern for my older sister. "I'm fine but could you call Roger and see if he can get a taxi here?" she asked me. "Sure but what is wrong sis." I said. "I don't know I just feel odd and weak like I don't have enough iron or something like that." She said to me.
As I was on the phone with Roger Ellis passed out on the ground of the dinner. I panicked as I knew that this wasn't good especially her fall with her going to have Sally in 3 or 4 weeks.
"911 we have a pregnant women unconscious on the ground." Said a teenage boy. "Sir how far along do you think she is?" asked the operator. "Um 5 maybe 6 months pregnant." Said the teen. "We will send an ambulance based on your call stay there don't leave the side of the women." Said the operator. "Hi I'm Elizabeth." I said to the boy. "Josh look this poor lady needs to be helped, for the sake of the 5 maybe 6 month fetus." He said to me. "I agree with you yes she needs to be helped but Ellis' husband needs to drive the car to the hospital where she works." I said. "You know her?" asked Josh. "Yes she's my older sister." I said. "Your sister?" he asked. "Yes my sister my parents had my twin brother and I when she was 13, I also have like 6 other siblings so my parents have a grand total of 9 children, and 12 almost 13 grandchildren." I said.
When I got to the hospital with Ellis the doctors asked me what was going on and I wasn't sure what was going on because I was on the phone with Roger when she fainted. I'm scared for her I love my sister and I don't want anything bad to happen to her I love her she is my role model, like all my siblings but I look up to Ellis for advice and I don't know what I would do without her. When mom came in the room she asked me what happened and I couldn't answer because I had the same answer as before.
Roger:
This morning my wife seemed perfectly fine the normal loving Ellis that she is caring for our triplets with their every needs. I know adding a new baby into the family is going to be a challenge but we can't wait for our daughter. I am scared for both of them because Ellis is my life next to our 3 kids, and the baby that she is carrying. I know that I may not always do the things that Ellis expects me to do with the kids but I love them and try to find ways to do whatever I can to help my family. Since the triplets were a year old we have sense changed our last name to be Shepherd so our daughter will be born Sally Elizabeth Shepherd.
"Roger what is going on with our daughter do they know anything of why she fainted." Meredith and Derek asked. "No they don't know what is going on they are running tests to find out what is going on but no update yet I'm scared I'm supposed to pick Luke, Leia, and Gail up from Zola's in a half an hour but I can't leave her she is my love can you pick them up and bring them home I don't want them to see her like this until we know what is going on I don't want them to see her I know that it's their mother but I don't know how they would handle it." I told them "I will take care of them okay just stay with my sweet daughter." Meredith said. "Thank you mom I will let you know when there is an update."
As I sat in the waiting room waiting for any news on my wife a nurse came out and told me that they are going to start ivs as a first treatment, until the rest of the tests come back. I was afraid to see her because the last time I was in a similar situation was when Ellis was in the hospital when she was 15 and had a hip surgery, and I wasn't there for my sister Gail who died the day I went to visit Ellis. I regret my decision about seeing my girlfriend over my sister but I couldn't say goodbye to her I still can't live without thinking about her. I am scared of raising 4 children alone if I even have 4 children I may only have my three children it would almost hurt me if I lost Sally because she is apart of Ellis, and myself. I can't live without my Ellie she is my love and I could never fall for another if I lose Ellis.
Meredith:
Since Ellis had her medical emergency I don't have much information of what is going on I am taking care of the children and Roger doesn't want them to see Ellie until he knows what is going on. I am afraid to lose both my daughter and granddaughter they are my life but if Sally doesn't make it I will still have Ellis. Granted I'm still sad about what happened to my grandchild from Hannah we never got to meet him/her because she had a medical issue with the pregnancy and ended up losing the baby. The baby would have been born around the time that we are supposed to be in Paris. I know Hannah wanted another child but since her emergency she's not sure if she wants to take the chance of getting a sibling for Rachel.
"Grammy can we go see mamma?" asked Gail. "Honey Daddy told me not to take you to see her until we know what is going on." I said. "But mommy is sick Grammy please we will be good." Luke and Leia said. "I'm sorry guys but daddy said no." I said. "Okay Grammy" Luke, and Leia said.
Gail wasn't happy about the choice but she understood what her father was doing but she was scared for her mom and her baby sister. I know that I am scared for her. At 1:30 pm I got word from Roger that I could bring the kids around to see Ellie. I was shocked. When we got there Gail was afraid to see her mom and hid behind Roger, Elizabeth, Derek, and my legs because she didn't want to lose her mom.
"So Roger what is going on with Ellie." I asked. "Well right now they are giving Ellis meds but there is a chance we will be meeting Sally today because of all the medical monitoring going on because Ellis does have a slight elevated blood pressure but it's not preeclampsia yet." Roger told me. "Oh wow has she dilated any?" I asked. "Well frankly she has been dilating they are going to take her into an emergency C-Section if her blood pressure, the reason why she fainted was that she had low blood sugar similar to what Zola had with Carrie and Caroline." He told me. "Well we are going to stay here in case something bad happens." I told him.
At 2:30 pm Ellis was rolled away from us to have an emergency C-Section when we were all scared. At 2:45 pm Derek and I received our 13th grandchild a beautiful baby girl Sally Elizabeth who was 7 pounds, and 19 inches. She was 4 weeks early but she is alive and our daughter is alive. After Sally was born Ellis got the necessary treatment for her to get her strength. I held my granddaughters Leia and Gail while I sat in the chair next to Ellis, talking to her. She was happy to see her girls on the other side was Roger holding their infant daughter, and Derek holding Luke. Ellis was thankful for us because if she didn't have any of us nearby she would of not had a chance of even seeing her newborn daughter. I know now that Ellis had this medical emergency our trip might be out of the works but the doctor however said that she would be fine to travel soon but would recommend her to take an easy for a few weeks.
A/N: so here is the next chapter I wanted to write in a dark but happy direction. There is a surprise in Paris for the family but it's a surprise that not even Meredith and Derek were expecting especially after Hannah's medical emergency. Also the next chapter is going to have a diary entry from the granddaughters Carrie, Caroline, Leia, Gail, Rachel, and Madeline because I would like to introduce their character developments we have established some with Leia, Rachel and Gail but not a lot with Carrie and Caroline, also Mikey, Elliot, Albert, Little Luke, and Henry are going to have a big part coming up like the granddaughters but that's not till they are in Paris. Anyways I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter it was interesting to write but it ended happy.
