CHAPTER 6 Abby begins seizing. MARK!!!! Screams Elizabeth, you need to get in here right now. We have got to get Abby to County right away.
Mark rushes in and sees that Abby is seizing. "Damn,! He says! What the hell was she thinking? She surely didn't only drink a half of a bottle of Jack Daniels, she had to have something else too."
"I know," sighs Elizabeth, "and I'm not saying I agree with what she has done, but I do understand. She's had a really hard day. Apparently Carter and Luka didn't help much either and I'm going to talk to them about it."
"Uh oh, should I warn them that a pissed off Brit is on their trail?"
"Oh you are just toooo funny Mark, now come on and help me get Abby in the van before she dies why you so wittingly make fun of me."
Mark picks up Abby who by this time has stopped seizing and carries her over his shoulder and lays her in the backseat of the van. She starts seizing again. Her entire body is shaking, so bad in fact she rolls off the seat. Mark picks her up off the floor of the van. Lizzie is driving. He lifts her eye lids and realizes her eyes are rolled into the back of her head. She is not breathing.
"Lizzie, hurry up, she's not doing to well," shouts Mark as he begins to do mouth to mouth. He continues for about 5 minutes while Lizzie continues to drive but Abby still isn't breathing. Lizzie pulls into the emergency area of County, tires and brakes screeching. Mark throws Abby over his shoulder, jumps out of the van and yells for someone to get a gurney. Weaver is standing outside in the ambulance bay with Peter. The two are arguing about something.
"Will you two shut up and get me a gurney," shouts Mark.
Kerry looks up with a slightly shocked look on her face and says, "Alright Mark, what's going on? I haven't heard you quite this outspoken in awhile what the hell is your prob.oh my God!! Isn't that Abby."
"Uh yeah duh, now step it up." Mark is getting angry now. "Abby's like dying here."
Weaver grabs a gurney and Mark places her on it. Corday is at his side. "What the hell did she do Mark?" asks Weaver.
"I don't know exactly, when she came home she had a half drank bottle of Jack Daniels in her hand which she threw against our wall when I tried to take it from her. But I have a strong feeling this isn't the only thing she drank. It was only half of a bottle and she was completely wasted and she's been seizing and throwing up and not breathing."
"Can you guys handle her for a few? I have a bone to pick with a few men," says Corday who wonders off.
"What was that about Mark?" asks a puzzled Weaver.
"A pissed off Brit. I wouldn't want to be Carter or Luka right now. Believe me, Elizabeth isn't too awful subtle when she is as pissed off as she is. I am speaking from personal experience."
"Okay," says Weaver, "no success in mouth to mouth I think we should intubate. Also start a central line and go out and grab Haleh and Chuney."
Mark steps out of the room and yells for Haleh and Chuney. He and Weaver than begin the intubation and central line and continue to work on Abby.
Meanwhile...
Elizabeth finds Carter in the lounge working on some files. She steps in front of him and knocks the files out of his hands. Carter, who is startled, looks up and sees Elizabeth glaring at him angrily.
"Hi, Elizabeth, ummm is there something I can help you with? You appear to be.angry with me?"
"As a matter of fact I am angry with you and you can help me by telling me what you said to Abby that would make her decide to get so drunk that she almost died!!!!," screams Elizabeth, hand on hips."
"WHAT!?!?!?! Is she here? Is she okay? Then under his breath mutters, "God what did I do?"
"Yes she is here, Mark and Weaver are working on her right now and for your sake you better hope she is okay. Because I am furious with you right now!!"
"Whoa girl, calm down. I'm upset enough that something is wrong with Abby I don't need a pissed off Brit on my case too."
Elizabeth gets right in Carter's face and says, "You are NOT funny, and I am NOT amused, in fact you are right, I am a pissed off Brit. And I have every right to be. Whatever you did or said to Abby or why the reason was that you decided to storm out of my home and knock a picture of Ella off the wall was enough to upset Abby enough to go out and get drunk and maybe really seriously hurt herself. She already was having one of the worst days ever and you just came along and made it even gloomier. Why did you have to force some romantic fantasy on her today? Hadn't she already been through enough trauma."
"Alright, Elizabeth!! I hear ya!! I'm sorry!! But I didn't force alcohol down Abby's throat. She chose to drink it all by herself! She's an adult Elizabeth! She made her own choice. I didn't help her make it. Now if you will excuse me I'm going to go see if Abby is okay."
Elizabeth continues to glare at Carter as he walks away. Just then the door flung open. It's Weaver. "Elizabeth, we need you in there." Elizabeth begins to walk out the door. Carter follows. "Carter, wait here," says Elizabeth. Carter ignores her and tries to follow anyway. "Didn't you hear what Elizabeth said?," asks Weaver. "She said to wait here, now wait here. Or here's an idea. Go see if you can be of some help somewhere. You are on duty you know or did you forget?
"What is this, everyone be mean to Carter day?" asks Carter who storms out.
Elizabeth rolls her eyes, "Men!"
"So why are you so mad at him," asks Weaver?
"Oh never mind, what's up, is Abby okay?"
"Well, we have her intubated and on a central line. We are going to have to move her up to ICU. She is still unconscious. It may be a few days before we know anything....
TO BE CONTIUNED....
