Let it Be
Chapter 4-Act Naturally
Several doctors and Nurses rushed in. "He's bit his tongue!" Someone yelled. Miranda grabbed and bite stick and forced it between his teeth. Jamie continued to pull against the restraints as he jerked.
"Get the sedative!" Someone else called out. A nurse quickly handed a doctor a syringe and he plunged the needle into Jamie's arm and watched the sedative flow out of the needle and into him. The spazmatic jerking continued for several more long tense moments before they ceased.
******************************************************
Jamie lay breathing heavily, Val sat next to his bed. When Jamie assumed that it was past visiting hours he was right, it was nearly 3:30am when he began to seize. Visiting hours started at 7:00am and Val had been seated in the chair since.
"Did they tell you how long it was?" Jamie asked suddenly.
"The Seizure?"
"Yeah."
"About three minutes." Val replied.
"They're postponing surgery."
"Precautionary reason's force them too." Val replied.
"It was scary Val."
"Do you remember it?" Jamie nodded.
"Yeah I do."
"Would you like to share?" Jamie knew Val was just curious about it.
"I couldn't breath, it was just little rasps but like no air was getting into my lungs really. I mean I guess I must have been breathing if I seized for that long... Miranda said I was making hissing noises, and because of there spazmatic jerking, there obviously Tonic Clonic Seizures. Coming out of it, I sorta realized I could move on my own accord again and felt my eyes roll back down.....it was scary." Val shuddered.
"I'm sorry." She said softly.
"Why? Its not your fault." Jamie replied quietly. Val sighed and watched as Jamie fidgeted with his blanket.
"What are you on for anticonvulsions?"
"Valproate" There was a long pause. "I can see you better."
"That's wonderful!" Jamie couldn't help but grin at the familiar squeal in her voice.
"Yeah, getting better." Val picked up on the sad note to his voice.
"Don't worry Jamie, everything is gonna be okay." He smiled sadly, but offered her no response.
*******************************************************
Jamie had spent the afternoon and most of the evening listening to Val babble on about what he was missing at school. When Caitie finally arrived he thought he was going to lose his mind. Val hurried off then, claiming she had to get to the station.
"Thank you." Jamie murmured.
"Let me guess, she talked about the newest school charity event or something."
"You got it."
"You poor child." Snorting his agreement Jamie sighed. "So how ya feeling?"
"Tired and sore, about the same as yesterday."
"And surgery's tomorrow?"
"If tonight goes well." Caitie knew what he meant by that.
"Oh yeah, you may have a different visitor tomorrow." Caitie said with an evil grin.
"Oh who?"
"Can't tell its a surprise."
"I hate surprises."
"I know." Caitie replied, Jamie made a face. Glancing at her watch she sighed.
"Let me guess, visiting time is over."
"Yup, I'll be by tomorrow waiting for you after your surgery."
"Sure." Jamie replied with a small smile of his own. Without really thinking about it Caitie reached over and squeezed his hand, catching him off guard.
"Its all gonna work out." She smiled and hurried from the room, leaving him to stare in the general direction she left in.
**********************************************************
"You nervous?" A soft voice asked from beside his bed.
"Kinda." Miranda's bright red hair came into his path of vision, which was slowly, but surely improving.
"We're gonna put you out now okay?" Jamie nodded and Miranda slowly put the mask over his nose and mouth. "Just breath normally sweetie." Jamie did as he was told, he felt the rolling bed move as he was pushed down the hall. Watching the ceiling tiles, he felt his eyes get heavy, as he was pushed into the operating room he saw doctor holding a rather large looking pin. With a shudder Jamie lost unconscious
**********************************************************
Either in pairs or singular, the teens gathered in waiting room. Alex even joined them at some point. The operation would have been long to begin with, but once reaching over an hour of the expected time, they began to worry. Recognizing Miranda Caitie caught her attention.
"He should be out by now." Val said.
"There were some complications.........."
Sorry its so short, but at least its out! What you didn't honestly think I wouldn't end this with a cliffhanger did you?
