PART 7
As the staff watched helplessly, Allison kept shaking Dave and repeated over and over, "Wake up, Daddy! Please wake up!". Almost instantly Haleh grabbed Allison from Dave's arms and carried her down to an exam room all the way hearing the little girl screaming, "I WANT MY DADDY! I WANT MY DADDY!" After Allison was out of sight the staff went into doctor mode. They felt Dave's carotid for a pulse and although he was lying in a pool of his own blood he still had a faint pulse. Malik pulled a gurney over and between him, Jerry and Luka they managed to get Dave on to it and rolled him in to Trauma Two leaving behind an object that had fallen off of Dave when they lifted him up. Once in they hooked him up to a heart monitor and called down to Cat Scan to get him in ASAP. They looked at the monitor and Dave's blood pressure was dropping quickly and his pulse was extremely weak. Mark intubated Dave to help with his breathing . Luka looked into Dave's eyes: both his pupils were blown. His pulse ox was falling below 70 and he was making very little urine. They immediately started wrapping his blood covered head in bandages, then wheeled him down to Cat Scan. As they waited for the results of the scan, they searched Dave's wallet for his sister's phone number. Connie came across a picture of Dave holding Allison in his arms, both flashing that signature Malucci smile. She also found his driver's license and noticed his organ donor spot was signed. They tried to put that out of their minds but knew that it was probably going to come in to factor. Randi kept calling up to the pediatrics ward looking for Cheryl without any success. Allison could be heard crying down the hall as Haleh and Chuny tried to comfort her. She had a few minor lacerations from the fall but other than that she was fine. She kept asking to see her Daddy. Chuny said if she took a nap when she woke up she could see her daddy. Regretfully, she agreed. The two nurses tearfully left her alone.
The shooting had emptied out the ER of patients, so Kerry told anyone who didn't have a patient to help clean up the lobby. All had agreed. It would take their minds off of what was going on down at Cat Scan. As they cleaned up the scattered papers and books, broken glass, Malucci's blood and pieces of Malucci 's skull, Jing- Mei burst into tears saying," Every ounce of blood she cleaned up was like a knife in her heart." She knew that Dave had a huge crush on her and she kept pushing him away, knowing that he was never anything but kind to her in his own Malucci way and she treated him so rotten and wouldn't give him the time of day much less go on a date with him, even though she had just as huge a crush on him. Now she probably would never be able to tell him. While mopping the floor up, something shiny caught Yosh's eye. He bent down and picked up the engagement ring Dave was to give Cheryl that night. He showed the others. They all bowed theirs heads in a moment of prayer.
