"Okay sweetie, I need you to take a big deep breath for me." Lu told Megan,
her patient. Megan nodded and continued to wheeze. Lu noticed out of the
corner of her eye that Dana was hovering outside the door. She looked
really worried. "Hang on one sec Meg." Megan coughed and nodded her head
again. "Dana, if you wait outside my door any longer, you'll wear out the
floor." "I know Lu, I'm just nervous." "Don't you have any patients to
see?" "No, I kinda cleared out my schedule." "Dayyynnaaa!" "I know, I
know, it's just that.." "It's just that no Dana, these results could take a
while, and ya know how the lab gets all backed up." "Why don't you just go
see what Nick is up to, maybe you could help him with a patient or two."
"Oh fine." "I'll page ya as soon as I get the results back, now I have got
to go, I've got a 15 year old girl in there who just might have pneumonia."
"Sorry Lu." "It's ok, I understand."
Lu walks back into the exam room and finishes up with Megan. "Meg, I want ya to go home, take these meds, and get some rest ASAP!" "Ok?" "Alright Lu." "And I want you to call me if you get any worse alright?" "I will." "Ok, and one last thing, on your way out set up a follow-up with Lana in like a week or so." "Sure, Lu whatever." Megan rolls her eyes and jumps off the table. "MEG!" Megan and Lu both laugh as Lu walks Megan over to Lana. "Schedule her for a follow-up say in a week or so." "Will do chief."
"Nick, I just don't know how I can wait much longer!" Dana hovers impatiently over Nick as he is simultaneously trying to stitch a little boy's knee. "Dana, ya know I care about you, but could we talk later, I am trying to fix this little boy's knee up." Right as Nick told Dana this, the little boy, obviously petrified starts screaming up a storm, and balling uncontrollably. Dana a little agitated tells Nick she'll page him if the results come, and leaves the ER.
Dana somehow finds her way up to the roof where Peter is tending to his garden. "Need someone to talk to?" Peter asks Dana. "No, I'm just fine," is Dana's rehearsed response. Peter gives her an "I don't believe you look," and sits down next to her. "Well it's just that I am so worried about this insemination, and I really want to have a baby, I am at the right time in my life, with the right guy." "I know Dana, but you know either way I think you'll be happy," "I mean you were happy before you had an opportunity to be pregnant, and so if this doesn't turn out the way you want, we will be here for you." "I'm sure Nick has told you this before." Dana smiles and laughs, "he has, a million times." Just then Dana's pager goes off, she looks down at the number, "123." "That's RWHC." Peter says to her, and gives her an encouraging thumbs up sign.
Dana rushes down the stairs and almost knocks over Dr. Jackson. "Sorry Bob, emergency." " 5-4-3-2 and here she is." Lu counts down and smiles when she sees Dana and how tired she is from running. "Ok before I open this envelope, you are coming into my office, and sitting down, and recovering from your marathon." "Lu, you just love torturing me so, don't you?" "Well actually now that you mention it, yes I do." "Just kiddin with you Danes." Lu jokingly hits Dana over the head with the envelope and opens the door to her office. "Ok let's see if you are going to have a little baby for me to take care of." Lu laughs again. Lu rips open the envelope and stares at Dana. "Dana, I hope you are ready for lots of OB/GYN visits with me because you're pregnant!!" "I am?" Dana excitingly jumps around. "Yep, you are!" "Hey, wait where's lover boy?" "Oh shoot, I forgot to page Nick." "It's ok page him now."
Nick rushes up to Dana with a question on his face. "Are you, are you?" "We're going to have a baby." "Oh Dana." Nick sweeps up Dana and drags her into her office. They jokingly put a "do not disturb doctor at work" sign on the door.
THAT NIGHT….
Lu Delgado is awoken with a start she sleepily looks at her pager. "Oh great, the ER." Lu exclaims still sleepy eyed.
Lu arrives at the ER still a little tired, but is immediately woken up when she realizes who the paramedics are bringing in, "Oh my god." Lu exclaims in disbelief. "Lu, help me!" The patient desperately cries out.
Lu walks back into the exam room and finishes up with Megan. "Meg, I want ya to go home, take these meds, and get some rest ASAP!" "Ok?" "Alright Lu." "And I want you to call me if you get any worse alright?" "I will." "Ok, and one last thing, on your way out set up a follow-up with Lana in like a week or so." "Sure, Lu whatever."
