OOC: I don't know much about medical terms/procedures and/or hospital terms/procedures, so I'm sorry if some things in here aren't realistic. I'm too lazy to research it, and everyone wants me to get this story up quickly, so sorry for any inaccuracies! Enjoy!

(Previously on Shelby's Return...LoL)
(Dr. Miller) "Well the good news is, we've got the bleeding under control. The bad news is, she's not out of the woods get. Its a low velocity wound, meaning the bullet did not exit her body. So she's in the OR right now. We're going to make a preauricular incision with bi manual palpatation. That should retrive the bullet. But...when she comes out...her blood pressure was low when we were going into the operating room..if its still as low when she comes out...she may be in a coma"
(Kerri) "Oh please. Forgive me. I don't care a bit about Scott's poor little whore"
(Scott) "Forgive me. I was just worried about 'my little whore'"....."Do I even *have* to tell you its *over* Kerri?"
(Dr. Miller) "Mr. Scarbrow, the surgery was successful......"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OOC: I'm sorry this part is a bit short. But I'll have the next one out VERY, VERY soon

*The Waiting Room*
"Mr. Scarbrow, the surgery was successful" he repeated again, hesitating a bit as he looked over all the young faces, so full of hope. "But I'm afraid a few moments after the surgery, she went into shock. We're trying to pinpoint the cause---but this dropped her blood pressure about 35 mm/Hg in only a few minutes---Mr. Scarbrow, she's in a coma" he finished, looking upon the group with apologetic eyes. For a moment, they just stared back at him in stunned shock. The blond boy was the first to lose it, sobbing louder than he had the previous two times, gripping his head in his hands. As all the others (except Kerri) began weeping, Dr. Miller walked over to Scott and put a comforting hand on his shoulder. "We're doing everything we can son..don't give up hope" he whispered reassuringly. "Don't let her die. Please don't let her die" Scott sobbed. "We'll do our very best son" he said quietly, patting his shoulder one last time before walking over to Peter. "Mr. Scarbrow, Shelby is up in the ICU, and we're giving her constant attention. We're looking for possible allergic reactions to any antibiotics, or anything else we've given her that may have caused her to go into shock. If its is anything like that, hopefully we can give her something to reverse the effect. Or, depending on what caused it, her body could just bounce back naturally..its far to early to tell. We should have more information as the night goes on. As I said, we're working on it right now...but if you'd like, you could visit her..one at a time. However I can allow no more than four" he finished. Peter nodded, his eyes glassy. "Thank you doctor..we'll be ready in a few moments" Peter said quietly, shaking the doctors hand before walking over to Sophie. "We can only take two of the kids up with us" he whispered. "Scott and Daisy?". Peter nodded, I'll get him, you get Daisy" Peter said quickly, "Come on Scott..we're gonna go up and see her" Peter whispered, trying to help Scott up. "Peter!" I voice called behind him. Her turned from Scott to see Curtis jogging down the hallway towards him. "They've got the kid. Found him comming into town, still clutching his gun. Looked like a deer caught in the headlights--- how's Shelby?". Peter sighed. "The bullet's out, but somewhere along the line she went into shock, which lowered her blood pressure---she's in a coma" Peter said, rubbing his temples. "I'm sorry Peter---" Curtis began. Peter shook his head. "I should have seen the gun--he snuck the gun in--how could I have missed it" Peter said, exasperated. Curtis patted him on the back sympathetically. "Well, she's in the ICU right now. We're going to take some of the kids up to see her--they're wrecks" he sighed, motioning to Scott who still sobbed quietly. Curtis nodded. "We'll keep them all in our prayers" he said, giving Peter a quick hug before retreating. "Come on Scott" he said, pulling him up, and steering him towards the elevator.
*Intensive Care Unit*
"Whats her BP?" Dr. Miller asked, as he walked into Shelby's room. "Still down, but it has gotten a bit higher" the nurse replied, writing down the specific number on Shelby's chart after changing her IV. "Well every little bit is good for this girl" Dr. Miller commented, looking over the nurses shoulder. Then through the window, he noticed Mr. Scarbrow and three others step out of the elevator. "Okay, just one ground rule before we allow you to visit her. Only one person goes in that room at a time, is that understood?" he asked, looking over at Daisy and Scott. They nodded. "Alright...who's going in first?" Peter asked, looking over them. "I'll go" Scott said in a barely audible whisper, looking down at the ground. Peter nodded to Doctor Miller, who then led Scott into Shelby's room.
